Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1-4 favor Rell: her Ferromancy dash-crash into a knockup and armor shred is a genuine kill combo, and with an ADC following up she can end your carry before your sustain is online. This is the reason the matchup is slightly losing overall, so hug the wide side, body-block her dash with minions, and don't contest CS inside her engage range. Play to not get crashed on.
