Trading pattern

Threaten engages from brush with (Q) to force enemy ADC away from safe positioning.
Hold (R) to guarantee lockdown on targets dodging (Q), enabling ADC burst.
Avoid engaging without ADC range or when wave size blocks your hook angle to prevent punish windows.

Danger windows

(Q) plus passive root creates long lockdown; respect hook range and brush angles.
Missing your (Q) leaves a large punish window; back off to avoid enemy all-in.
Enemy (R) silence can interrupt your shield or escape; hold cooldowns and avoid overextension post-hook.

Early game

Win level 2 race to combine (Q) and passive root for strong all-in with ADC follow-up.
Deny Blitzcrank brush control early to limit his hook angles and force predictable positioning.
Crash wave with ADC before roaming to maintain lane safety and punish enemy ADC isolation.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q) plus passive root for strong all-in; coordinate with ADC for kill pressure.
Level 3 grants (W) shield and (E) slow, enhancing peel and engage; use around brush control.
Level 6 (R) provides point-and-click knockup to secure kills or peel; use with confirmed ADC follow-up.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and hook pressure into denied enemy ADC positioning and easy ADC follow-up.
Establish river vision to track Blitzcrank's roam timer and safely assist mid or dragon setups.
