| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Cassiopeia | Cassiopeia wins level 1 — Q and E poke plus Miasma ground beat your melee approach. |
| Level 2 | Cassiopeia | Cassiopeia holds level 2 with continued ranged DPS you can't retaliate against. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 evens as ghouls soak her poke and you can E-mist a trade. |
| Levels 4-5 | Cassiopeia | Cassiopeia retakes levels 4-5 with escalating E spam and CS control. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is a skill wash but her Petrifying Gaze stun denies your all-ins. |
| First item | Cassiopeia | Cassiopeia favours the first-item spike — her E out-DPSes your ghoul stack. |
| Two+ items | Cassiopeia | Cassiopeia stays ahead at 2+ items with unrelenting poke and teamfight range. |
Cassiopeia runs levels 1-2 — her Q Noxious Blast and E Twin Fang out-poke your melee kit while W Miasma grounds you so you can't close the gap. Soak XP behind ghouls, block Q with the wave, and don't step onto her Miasma.
