Karthus into Lilliamedium

Overview

Focus on full clearing efficiently to leverage your superior clear speed and scaling potential.
Avoid early river fights and invades until you have vision and lane priority to reduce risk from Lillia's mobility and sleep.
Prioritize scaling through safe farming and use global to impact fights after level 6.

Prioritize full clearing camps quickly to reach item spikes and maintain tempo advantage.
Contest Scuttle only if you have lane priority and vision control to avoid Lillia's sleep setups.
Counter-jungle or invade after Lillia commits to a side of the map and your lanes can collapse for support.

Vulnerable during early clears with low health; avoid isolated river fights where Lillia can use to sleep.
High risk when forced into smite fights without vision or lane priority due to Lillia's objective control and mobility.
Be cautious when lanes lack priority to support counter-ganks; Lillia can capitalize on isolated plays early.

Start with a full clear path away from predictable river entries to protect your low-health camps.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle unless your nearby lanes have strong priority to support a fight.
Use wards to track Lillia's fast clear and be ready to counter-gank when she pressures lanes early.

Level 6 unlocks global damage; use it to finish off low-health enemies post-fight.
First AP item significantly boosts clear speed and objective damage; cycle camps aggressively to hit this timing.
Respect Lillia's movement speed and sleep abilities by avoiding extended low-health fights before your key spikes.

Convert faster clear speed and item spikes into early objective control and vision dominance.
Use global to secure kills and pressure lanes after fights, compensating for limited gank threat.
Deny Lillia's tempo by counter-jungling when her lanes are pushed or after she commits to a side, forcing her off camps and delaying her scaling.
