Mel matchup: 2 ways to take trade against mel : -Waste fear and then try to get a trade -Use a Q and dodge it the moment she reflect it Mel is almost unwinnable in lane, try to play the map

Zoé matchup: Wait for Zoe to R to launch your R to get a free hit

Viktor matchup: Use W to absord as much pressure as possible, don't stay in the wave or viktor will be able to push / poke freely. Don't play the poke during the laning phase, you will lose (or try playing comet)

Anivia matchup: Keep your fear for the moment she trade you, fearing anivia that used ult will cancel it and allow you to escape / get a good trade

Syndra matchup: Try to bait her spell, most syndras will Q you when you last hit

Xerath matchup: Wait for Xerath to charge Q to use E(fear) on him, allows to get good trades (Comet can be a good idea if you struggle in this matchup) Be aware when xerath if moving on the map, if he ults you get vision on him, allowing to hit a free R and more than ofter a free kill

Ekko matchup: Try to put pressure to the ekko without using E(fear), a good ekko will wait for you to do that and then dodge it with E to trade you

LeBlanc matchup: Try to play in the wave, lb push is really slow without her W and staying in the wave with W(fear) up will allow you to be more agressive

Zed matchup: If you manage to hit zed with R, most zed will R you when you are mid air, so keep W(fear) to os him when he gets out

Malzahar matchup: You can R malzahar even if he has his passive, you will be able to recast. During lane, auto malz to disable his shield before launching any spell
