Win the lane: Rem into Shiv

  1. 01Farm is close (+4.6 last hits per match), so trades decide this lane, not last hits.
  2. 02Shiv wants close range. Keep troopers between you, save stamina for a dash out, and punish them when they over-commit.
  3. 03Your own sustain (Tag Along) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
