Early game (levels 1–5)

Level 1 is yours: before Kled has Bear Trap leveled he cannot pull you and you poke him freely. From 2-5 it becomes a skill check: if he lands Q he pulls himself in and Violent Tendencies shreds, but if you dodge it you kite and stack Silver Bolts on him. Respect his courage-based aggression but do not panic: a whiffed Bear Trap leaves him committed and killable. Space with Tumble and Condemn him when he dashes.
