Garen	Favored	291	55%	+264	-95	You win early game but get outscaled later on in the isolated 1v1. However in teamfights you can just ult the garen into their team for an easy engage. You need to focus on fighting the garen strategically so you can look for a dive, all-in, or freeze in the early game. E start and zone him from the first wave melee xp.

Darius	Hard	272	56%	-191	-122	A popular skill matchup. Getting to level 2 first is crucial to winning the lane. If he starts Q, you can start E and try to dodge it. If he starts W, you can start W and trade aggressively. If he has 3 bleed stacks, back off immediately. Dodge his Q by walking into his inner circle or grabbing him with E.

Sion	Favored	267	52%	+85	+404	Take Conqueror and run him down. You can use your E to cancel his Q knock-up. He is extremely vulnerable before he buys a Bramble Vest. In teamfights, use your ultimate to slam him into the enemy team for massive area-of-effect damage. Hullbreaker is an excellent choice for split-pushing.

Jax	Not Favored	266	52%	-78	-217	This is a skill matchup. Punch him. Use your E to stun him when he uses his E, then get out of his E stun radius. Use your Q and auto-attacks to out-trade him. Jax isn't a threat without his E. Respect his level 6 and his ultimate's damage; only all-in him when he's around 60% HP, not full health. Getting Stridebreaker makes the lane much easier. Make sure you use minions to guarantee an E stun for a W true damage hit. If behind, just push waves under your tower and avoid bad trades.

Mordekaiser	Even	257	49%	+35	+172	This is a skill matchup. Fight inside your minion wave to reduce his Q damage. Be aggressive early and use E to punish his attempts to CS. Hold onto your W until you can land an E stun to guarantee the true damage. A crucial part of this matchup is using your R to become unstoppable and CANCEL HIS ULTIMATE. The timing is key—watch his hand animation and listen for the sound cue. Once you have this down, you can kill him inside his Death Realm. In teamfights, you can R him into his backline, but if he ults you, make sure to use your E before W to land the true damage.

Renekton	Very Hard	241	56%	-310	-305	This is a Renekton-favored matchup. The key is to survive his trades and play around his cooldowns. Start with W at level 1 and be aggressive since he has no fury.

Riven	Not Favored	233	50%	+101	-145	A difficult matchup. Riven is favored. Start with W at level 1 to tank her Qs and then hit her with your true damage. She has a lot of mobility, so landing a good E to stun her is crucial for winning trades. If she dashes away, don't waste your W; she can just escape it. A kill on Riven is worth more than a kill on other champs, so don't take risky trades. At level 6, her ultimate gives her a huge burst potential, so ALWAYS RESPECT HER POST-6 DAMAGE. Your Stridebreaker helps you stick to her and win extended trades. In teamfights, protect your carry and use R to peel her away.
