Playbook
Hold a spell shield or dash-reset specifically for her long-range Glacial Prison.
Punish her hard once her lockdown tools are down — she has limited pressure without them.
Play around vision on her flank; her ultimate has a long, uncontested range if unwarded.
Common Mistakes
Grouping tightly enough for a single Glacial Prison to lock down the whole team.
Committing an engage combo without accounting for her interrupt potential.
Standing in Winter's Wrath's slow zone longer than necessary before a fight.
