Overview

Use (Q) root threat and (E) poke to deny Neeko's engage angles through brush.
Control brush and river vision to limit Neeko's disguise and roam impact.
Enable ADC follow-up by holding (W) shields for peel against Neeko's burst and crowd control.

Trading pattern

Poke with (E) to pressure Neeko and force her to miss (E) root angles.
Hold (Q) to punish Neeko's overextensions or missed (E), enabling ADC burst follow-up.
Use (W) shields reactively to peel during Neeko's engage or (R) all-in threat.

Danger windows

Respect (E) root through minions, which enables her burst and ADC follow-up.
Beware (R) knock-up and burst combo, especially when combined with disguise for surprise engages.
Watch for Neeko using brush or passive disguise to mask position and create hook or all-in angles on your ADC.

Early game

Win level 2 by landing (Q) root to set up ADC trades before (E) root.
Deny brush control to prevent Neeko from using disguise and (W) clone for picks.
Crash wave safely with ADC to create roam windows and secure river vision for dragon setup.

Track (R) cooldown to decide when to engage or peel, as her all-in threat drops after it's used.

Use (R) and (W) to create pick windows or peel effectively, enabling favorable teamfight entries and objective control.
