The long-rifle control. Sea Halberd is the hidden multiplier: her poke range (the biggest in the gold lane) keeps the 60% anti-heal refreshed from OUTSIDE the fight - the sustain front never sees her but never heals - her 6-unit poke zone is a permanent heal-cut zone, plus 80 AD keeps the Bomb/Projectile ratios intact and +8% damage vs higher-HP targets taxes the exp tanks. Quantum Charge: her basics restore 75-180 HP plus 30% MS - the kiting sustain where distance is both damage and survival. Blade of Despair plus Malefic Gun plus Hunter Strike core kept: flat AD, range, CDR is the identity. Swift Boots plus Fatal: the poke still crits. Rose Gold Meteor (30 AD plus 20 AS plus 10% lifesteal plus Dragon Scale hybrid def, halved for marksmen, plus the sub-30% shield and MS burst): the diver insurance - the trade she should never take, survived. 6th slot Rose Gold Meteor: shield on the slow-push tempo - the sniper sustains.

Counter Builds
Vs Layla: her damage scales to 115% at max distance - the counter is GETTING CLOSE - her kit has no escape (Flicker is all she has): gap-close once and she dies. Her Destruction Rush range grows per upgrade (plus sight): the longer the game, the harder she is to reach - close the game before her late-game spike. Her power curve is 32 early, 56 mid, 88 late: the early game is the fold window, the late game is hers. Atlas-type pull-collapse drafts are her wall, short-range drafts she out-spaces (Melissa-type) are her food.
