Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1QuinnYou own Level 1 — your range and Harrier auto-resets let you walk her down before she has a single spell to answer.
Level 2Even / skillOnce her Q poke comes online it evens out — trade with your blind up but respect that she ignores it on her Q.
Level 3AuroraWith Q-W-E up she can E-blink your Vault and the slow, then root and Q-poke you from outside your reach.
Levels 4-5AuroraShe converts levels 4-5 into safe poke — her E blink resets escapes faster than your lethality lets you punish.
Level 6AuroraAt 6 her W exile plus R out-rotates you and you have no burst back — this is her cleanest all-in window.
First itemAuroraHer first AP item plus Q-root chunks your squishy frame faster than your lethality spike can kill her.
Two+ itemsEven / skillIt evens back out but only because you fall off into a pick-threat — avoid the 1v1, flank with R and blind her carry instead.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Level 1 is yours outright — your range plus Harrier auto-resets let you walk up and chunk her before she has a spell, so leash and immediately contest the wave. The instant her Q poke is online she starts to even it out, so don't sit in her max-range Q farming for free. The key trap: she holds E to blink away from your Vault, so if you dash in and she's already used E you get a free Harrier-marked all-in; if she still has it, expect her to flash-blink out and re-poke. Blind her with Q if she tries to trade autos, but know she ignores it on her Q and root.
