Mathilda is a support. The same strategic principles that beat supports in general apply to Mathilda specifically:

1. Catch them out of position when rotating — supports are squishy alone.

3. Target their carry first to bait the support's CDs.
4. Vision denial — sweep wards, deny their setup advantage.
