His silence doesn't last for long enough for him to be considered for 1v1. He's squishy, and his aoe nuke/slow is more useful in teamfights than 1v1.

That said, 1v1 you can walk up to them with a silence, force pulse, riftwalk away before they can hit you with an ability, then use Nether Blade to "prime" one Force Pulse counter. That's 2 FP counters already.

Wait for your cooldowns to resolve (your riftwalk 6 seconds to turn off, your Nether Blade to prime again) and you're at 4 charges. Then it's a matter of riftwalking in (5), silencing (6), and force pulsing again before using Flash.

Yeah, he is one rude son of a bitch.
