Rare treat: you win every single stage of this. Level 1 Bear Trap plus Skaarl's second health bar bullies him outright, and Violent Tendencies trades at 2 through 5 come out ahead every time — your E dash even dodges the engage his level-3 dash tries to force. Trade on every cooldown and make the lane unlivable.
