Read from Kennen's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Camille.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Your Thundering Shuriken (Q) outranges Camille's entire level-1 kit — free poke with no counterplay before she has E. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Even Skirmish: your Q chip is matched by her Q true-damage last-hits, and neither of you can safely commit yet. |
| Level 3 | Kennen | Her level-3 Q-W-E combo out-trades you in melee — a Hookshot knock-up into Tactical Sweep chunks your low-HP body. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | She owns the hard-commit window: a fed Camille all-in with W heal and Q true damage beats your poke if she lands E. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Slicing Maelstrom (R) plus your three-mark stun-lock blows her up before items — channel R when she E's in and her own engage feeds your stun. |
| First item | Kennen | Her Sheen/Stride spike arrives: E stun into W cone and Q proc out-trades and out-sustains your magic burst once her R isolates you. |
| Two+ items | Kennen | Genuinely even late: she scales to win the isolated 1v1, but your AoE R and global engage keep you relevant in any teamfight. |
Level 1-2 are yours: Thundering Shuriken (Q) outranges everything Camille owns, so chip her each time she walks up to last-hit and stack Mark of the Storm with your Electrical Surge (W) on-hit autos. The thing to respect is her E hookshot — if she stuns you into her Q-proc-W-cone combo your fragile body folds fast, so never throw a Q from inside her E range. By level 3 she has her full Q-W-E and out-trades you in melee; back off and poke from max range instead of contesting the wave toe-to-toe.
