Keep your distance so he doesnt E onto you for free. Play for farm and scale for fights. You can use W to dodge his Q his EQ knockup.
Ёнэ
He can Q your dogs for stacks.
S+
Ёнэ matchup: He can Q your dogs for stacks. Serpents is good. They normally go Shieldbow second these days. Keep your distance so he doesnt E onto you for free. Play for farm and scale for fights. His W shield blocks a lot of dmg so duels are very hard. Keep distance so he does get free qs and ult. He may even just ult with no setup if you are in range, always be rdy to E out the way. W can be used to dodge his Q/W/R. The best time to trade would be when his E/W is down in the lane phase.
Диана
Try to trade with her when her W is down.
S+
Диана matchup: Try to trade with her when her W is down. Maw first item is good here if they have AP JG combo. Her Q is hard to dodge try to walk into her sometimes to dodge it because they will max range Q often if you keep standing far back. Use your W to dodge her R. In the early game you can use your W to dodge her Q and bait her into a Q E Combo and putting her E on full CD.
Зед
Zed may play full poke or more aggressive if they take ignite/electrocute.
S
Зед matchup: Zed may play full poke or more aggressive if they take ignite/electrocute. When his W is up keep a bit a distance so you can react to it to dodge the Qs watch his. Careful if you try to Q him he can swap shadows if it is up. Try to use Q when this ability is on cd so he cant trade back when you go for trade or just dodge it. When he ults use your ult and Q in the direction he will appear then E to dodge his Qs. Save your W for his R post 6. Before 6 you can use it to avoid a W Q combo and look for a trade if he is close enough You will follow him all the way then hit your Second Q. You can switch builds to deaths dance first item. This way you dont get one shot by him late game.

S
Акали matchup: Her W makes it hard to hit Qs and your dogs can't auto her in stealth which is big lost of dps. Play safe by keeping your distance and go hex/maw if they have multiple magic dmg source. W can be used to dodge all her attack abilities but the best one would be R. During lane I usually avoid her Q with W. I usually focus on just dodging the E. But if it hits then I will avoid it with W if I have it up.

S
Кассиопея matchup: Most times you can bait out her R by running up to her while activing your R and do a quick backstep. Otherwise don't engage if she has her W and R up. She can combo you from full and you can't even E away. Try to poke in lane while avoiding her Qs. If you do get hit run away and wait it out or she just gonna spam E with does more dmg and heals her. If she isnt expecting it you can R then W to dodge her R if you expect her to be slow with it. Serpents is good because she builds tear.
Векс
Her passive works on your pets do so you lose a lot of dps when she fears them.
S
Векс matchup: Her passive works on your pets do so you lose a lot of dps when she fears them. Focus on using Q to poke in this lane. When her passive is on cd you can engage on her but she will get it back quickly when she hits you it spells because you just use some dashes. Remember she has a shield from her W. That combine with the fear makes it hard to kill her but farm early and wait for items and her passive being down. She has to use it because she is like annie but better. Edge of Night can block that fear. Use W to dodge a fear ability. Can also be used to dodge her R denying her engage/resets.

A
Ари matchup: Try To Q at her after she uses W because the movement speed from it makes it hard to hit Qs. You can E forward to land Q if needed and maybe bait her E out as well. Don't R her while her E is up. Q and let the dogs reach close then use R and the dogs will arrive before you do so they will block the charm. Save W to dodge the charm and you can have the dog block it too. Against ahri you can use the trick where you Q her, have the dogs close to her then R for them to block the charm allowing your R to connect.
Физз
Keep distance to dodge his E or Q E combo.
A
Физз matchup: Keep distance to dodge his E or Q E combo. Be ready to dodge his R by hovering your E or W button at all times post 6. Maw first item is decent if Jungle is Ap. In the early lane phase you can land your Q and save your W for his E. Use your range to your advantage and poke him out. Otherwise you will lose the trades if you go blow for blow.
Локк
He is very hard to beat, but you do outscale him somewhat.
A
Локк matchup: He is very hard to beat, but you do outscale him somewhat. Avoid his Qs so he can't get a big damage proc on you. W can be used to dodge his R or you can flash out of it. Ignite is good to cut his W healing down. I suggest not trading when his W is up if possible, it gives big movement speed and allows him to dodge your Qs.
Лиссандра
Mercs recommended because her cc is undodgeable.
A
Лиссандра matchup: Mercs recommended because her cc is undodgeable. Focus on farming and avoiding her Q poke. Her W is instant so when you are almost in range press W and you may dodge her W Root. She can setup up ganks very easy to track and ward for enemy jg/sup. This is useful to stall her R for a bit and get out of range since she has to stop to cast it for a bit.
Нико
Use E to dodge her E or Q if you want.
A
Нико matchup: Use E to dodge her E or Q if you want. Your W can be used to dodge her E when looking for trades. Your W can also be used to dodge her R this is big for teamfights and engages onto her. Play safe early till you get some items. Poke her out then engage and force out her R and use W to avoid it..
Синдра
Dodgeball throughout the early lane phase.
A
Синдра matchup: Dodgeball throughout the early lane phase. She will use her E to trade because hitting spells on you stacks her passive. Once you have dmg/ult bait out her E dodge it with. That's the key to this matchup, playing around her E and all times. Merc threads is good purchase here. Your W can dodge her R too. Edge of Night is great for blocking her E Later in the game.
Талия
Her E stuns if you dash over it.
A
Талия matchup: Her E stuns if you dash over it. It also works vs your packmates. This means you will lose dps if your dogs try to jump through them. Watch out for her Ult when you run up on her in sidelane. She can easily press R to get away. The only time she can't ult is when she takes dmg from champs (not if she is in combat with champions). Figure out if they know this mechanic and if they do just hold W till after the ult is going off to follow her if you want to. You might have issues following a lvl 16 ult though. You can use W to avoid her W to avoid getting pushed.
Виктор
Look to poke with Q in lane phase while his damage isn't that high yet.
A
Виктор matchup: Look to poke with Q in lane phase while his damage isn't that high yet. You can use W to avoid his W stun by walking over it. His aoe from R can kill dogs and his W stuns them. Keep that in mind when you expect to do dmg and you do less than you thought you would do. After 6 I suggest looking to ult in before getting poked out.
Зиггс
Play for farm and survive poke.
A
Зиггс matchup: Play for farm and survive poke. His Q can hit dogs and explode off them cause dmg to you. You can't R him while his W is up but if he doesn't know how to use it well you can do this. If is down just go in for a trade. Build edge of night vs him later.
Аврора
Use your W to Dodge her Q E combo.
B
Аврора matchup: Use your W to Dodge her Q E combo. They mostly use them together if they are in range. Use the movement speed buff from W to get Close and land E and Q. Watch out for her W it can make it hard to connect ur skillshots so if her W is down then it's perfect time to engage.
Азир
Lane is rough play around his soldiers cd.
B
Азир matchup: Lane is rough play around his soldiers cd. Play towards one side of the lane to bait his soldier and then walk to the other side once its placed. If they have mutliple ap champs can go maw. Save E for R when you engage onto him to jump over the wall. You may be able to ult then W to dodge his R depending on how he reacts. If you can figure this out then you will have a good time. Try not to ult him while he has a easy access to E Q to get away.
Мэл
Never stay in her Q, it does more dmg the more projectile that hits you.
B
Мэл matchup: Never stay in her Q, it does more dmg the more projectile that hits you. Her W can reflect your Q and it gives a shield while active. Usually they will try to reflect the second Q you can intentionally miss it in moments where it matters. Remember to hold your Q when you go in for a kill with R when she has W up so she can't reflect your Q all your dmg. Use W to dodge her E or sidestep/E out of the way. She can kill your dogs easily because of her passive, keep them out of it. Your W can be used to dodge her R, so if you want to bait it out you can do that in small moments where it may matter like in a teamfight/skrimish.

B
Джейс matchup: Keep distance and watch out for melee Q onto caster minions when you walk up for cs. Post 6 engage onto him when he transform from melee to range. Melee form gives him high amounts of armour and gives access to his knockback E. Use your W to dodge either of his Qs. Range Q does more dmg while melee Q slows which i usually rather to dodge the melee Q and trade back.
Райз
You could follow his R escape if he ults close enough to his original location.
B
Райз matchup: You could follow his R escape if he ults close enough to his original location. When possible put yourself closer to where he is teleporting so it can follow. Poke with Q and stay away from minions when you can to not get hit by his EQ combo. Use W to dodge his E and deny his flux so he can't root or get bonus dmg from Q. Then run him down with the W movement speed. Serpents good vs him if they go tear.
Свейн
His Q does more dmg the closer you are to him.
B
Свейн matchup: His Q does more dmg the closer you are to him. Watch out for his E this is his main trading tool. The closer you are to him the easier it is to sidestep when it is coming back to him. His E when coming back stops on minions so stay away from them when his uses his E. His ult heals him a lot off your dogs try to get grevious wounds later if possible. If he is behind and he has no ult you can engage onto him. If he is building tanky then it will be hard.
Сайлас
Keep distance so you can avoid his E2.
B
Сайлас matchup: Keep distance so you can avoid his E2. Position yourself to make his chain hit your dogs. If he is aggressive, just play slow till you get some items/lvls. If not then just bully him into a kill. You win hard in mid game. Have ignite to deny his healing and turn on him if his E is down. You can W his Ult to deny him from stealing it. I suggest having his E hit a dog/minion then turn on him rather than using W to avoid it. You can do the trick where you Q him then let the dogs get close then R so it blocks his E,
Акшан
Steelcaps boots are good vs him.
C
Акшан matchup: Steelcaps boots are good vs him. If you W him while his E is up, he can E away and you never catch him.

C
Киана matchup: Go aggressive Early because once she gets 6 its trouble. This matchup is mostly about predicting her movements to land Q to get her low enough so she can't just engage and kill you for free. Q bleed can track her in invis. Use E to dodge Q when on the defensive. Play super aggressive lvl 1 since her lvl 1 is really weak as long as you hit your Qs ofc go in for autos too. Use W to dodge her R when you can. In lane use W to dodge her Q in trades. Tanky bruiser build is good vs her(deaths dance cleaver 2nd/3rd.

Your W can also be used to dodge any of his abilities including his R.
Владимир
Ignite is good here with DFT for the double burn.
C
Владимир matchup: Ignite is good here with DFT for the double burn. Watch his bar to tell when his Q is coming up. His E bolts hit the first unit they reach only, this means you can stand behind minions to avoid the dmg. His W pool heals him when he does dmg with it, dont stand in it. His R increase all dmg you take by 10% so keep that in mind when fighting multiple enemies or even minions too. Your W can avoid his empowered Q if timed right. W can be used to avoid his E as well to not be slowed.
