Read from Galio's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Camille.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | You both have a single ability and no engage at Level 1, so neither can punish — last-hit with the Q tornado and avoid her empowered Precision Protocol auto. |
| Level 2 | Camille | At Level 2-3 she gains Hookshot plus Tactical Sweep, a wall-dash stun all-in your one-spell kit cannot answer yet. |
| Level 3 | Camille | Her Hookshot into Tactical Sweep into Precision Protocol carries true damage on the Q recast, which leaks straight through a shield built to eat magic. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | She out-stats your weak extended trades — Tactical Sweep's outer-edge heal and the Precision Protocol recast's true damage grind you down faster than you trade back. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Even though Level 6 is your peak, the lane still belongs to her — but you spend Hero's Entrance roaming to win the map, not the losing 1v1. |
| First item | Camille | Her first-item spike on a true-damage duelist outpaces your defensive AP-tank build, and The Hextech Ultimatum can isolate you off your team. |
| Two+ items | Camille | At 2+ items Camille out-scales you — the Q recast's true damage ignores the armor and HP you stack while your own damage plateaus. |
Camille concedes nothing here, but neither do you — at Level 1 you both have one button and no kill threat, so farm with the center column of your Q tornado from max range and never auto-trade into her Precision Protocol recast, which lands true damage if she delays the second hit. The danger spikes at 2-3 once she has Hookshot plus Tactical Sweep: Hookshot pulls her to a wall, so do NOT hug the side terrain and the knockup can never reach you. Remember Adaptive Defenses too — every auto she lands gives her a shield against magic, which is all you deal. Hold Shield of Durand: its reduction does little against the true-damage hit, but the taunt on release freezes her mid-combo so Justice Punch knocks her up before she dashes out.
