Read from Vayne's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Lillia.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Your Tumble burst beats her low base HP before Blooming Blows (Q) ramps. |
| Level 2 | Vayne | She has no early lockdown to punish your short trades at level 2. |
| Level 3 | Lillia | Level 3 kiting still favours you as her Q stacks reset out of combat. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | By levels 4-5 her ramped Q and disengage make trades a skill check. |
| Level 6 | Lillia | Level 6 favours Lillia: Lilting Lullaby sleeps anyone already carrying Dream Dust. |
| First item | Vayne | Blade of the Ruined King offsets her passive burn and restores your DPS edge. |
| Two+ items | Vayne | Final Hour and %HP true damage let you out-scale her sustained combo late. |
You control the early game. Lillia has no point-and-click lockdown and low base HP, so Tumble-in trades favour you — two autos and a Silver Bolts proc beat Blooming Blows (Q), a 6s spin at only 450 range, before it ramps.
