Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1Even / skillHe has no kill pressure on me at level 1, but my barrels are weak and I have no waveclear either, so it's a wash — set the lane up and don't get Flung into the trail.
Level 2SingedHis Fling (E) into the Poison Trail (Q) is a real threat now while my Powder Kegs (E) are on long cooldowns and I can't punish back — this is his window.
Level 3GangplankMy second Parrrley point lets me poke him from range and start chipping faster than his proxy farm pays off.
Levels 4-5GangplankQ-into-keg detonations from outside his Fling (E) range out-chip his drain-tank sustain every time he walks up to the wave.
Level 6Even / skillCannon Barrage adds zoning but doesn't win the duel through his poison, so it stays even outside coordinated jungle plays.
First itemGangplankSheen empowers Parrrley and my keg chain bursts past his tank sustain, while Remove Scurvy cleanses his Mega Adhesive slow before he can chain a Fling.
Two+ itemsGangplankHe can't duel my keg burst, so he proxy-splits instead — Cannon Barrage taxes his side lane faster than his move speed can escape it.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Singed's whole early plan is to Fling (E) you into his Poison Trail (Q) or proxy your wave, and Levels 1-3 are exactly when I'm weakest — my Powder Kegs (E) have long cooldowns, low HP he can free-hit to deny, and I have zero waveclear. Do not chase him; the second I walk up to trade he Flings me back into the trail and the poison ticks me down while he kites away on his move speed. Last-hit with Parrrley (Q) from range, respect that he wants me deep in the wave near his Mega Adhesive (W), and never facecheck for a Fling I can see coming.
