Matchup plan

Take Grasp of the Undying. Q to proc Grasp for trading, combined with passive healing, making trades very efficient. Against Aatrox, prioritize tier 2 boots; Plated Steelcaps effectively reduce Aatrox's auto-attack and Q physical damage, keeping your health healthy. After backing for Black Cleaver, use Q to scare off the enemy jungler and take Rift Herald.

Item variants
