Early game (levels 1–5)

Level 1 is a skill lane before her kit comes online, so contest the wave and trade with Echoing Flames autos while you can actually reach her. Once she has Q and W, though, don't force it — her cloud makes her untargetable for your Q and her Snip Snip! true damage out-pokes your trades, so soak XP and wait for your ult.
