Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1SejuaniShe stacks Frost with a Winter's Wrath arc and Permafrost-stuns you off the wave while you have only one turret and no grenade.
Level 2SejuaniHer percent-MAX-HP Winter's Wrath keeps chunking your low base HP every time you walk up to last-hit or refresh turrets.
Level 3Even / skillA second turret and the slowing beam let you contest, but Permafrost's stun still punishes any greedy grenade — neither side runs the early wave away.
Levels 4-5HeimerdingerThree banked charges plus the CH-3X center-stun make her walk-ups suicidal whenever her Permafrost is on cooldown.
Level 6HeimerdingerUPGRADE!!! on a wider grenade or super-turret out-zones her Glacial Prison engage — punish the moment her R is down.
First itemSejuaniShe soaks turret beams with tank items and Arctic-Assault-dashes through the nest to land her CC chain on you.
Two+ itemsSejuaniPercent-MAX-HP Winter's Wrath plus a Sunfire/Liandry frontline shred your low HP while she chain-CCs the immobile yordle — she out-scales the nest.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Sejuani opens by stacking Frost with a Winter's Wrath arc and detonating Permafrost for a slow-then-stun the moment you step up — at Level 1 you have one turret and no grenade, so concede that contact window and last-hit from max range. By Level 2-3 a second turret with the slowing beam lets you contest, but respect her kit: she stacks Frost on your tiny HP bar, chunks you with percent-MAX-HP W, and Permafrost-stuns you out of the nest. Bait the Permafrost with a turret beam before you ever commit a grenade.
