Q at lv 2 and W at lv 4.. hmmm

your guide says that you should "land E" and use the slow to land Q, but in practice, it is almost impossible to land your Q

either you detonate your E for damage

or you run and try for a Q, low chance for high damage, huge chance of missing ,and a big chance to take damage

your runes are also "simply terrible"

why waste your yellows for that tiny ap per level? why not just get that mana regen per level or flat mana regen?

starting with E is just bad, you can't land your E easily without your Q.

ahri is pretty easy to beat if you are skilled, hide behind your minion and abuse your Q penetration to root for an quick Q E combo, your shield allows you to win trades very easily.

for gragas, he is not that hard to beat, the W gives some tankiness, sure. but the hard part about him is not the tankiness, but his insane AA damage at early levels

this is why you take Q first when against gragas, so he cant E into your melee range and rip you apart with his 90 AA damage per attack at lv 1

another part about gragas, is that he doesn't have to win the lane to win the game, lux has much less scaling than gragas, a skilled lux would win lane and gank lanes, while a skilled gragas would get tonns of farm and use his scaling and win late game, if you deny him of farm (aa him each time he wants CS), you will win, if you let him farm, he is gonna terrorize your team late game

kha zix is nothing to be feared, you can land your Q and E extremely easy, he will need to either take damage, or burn E and use mana, win-win situation if you can land an E.

if he jumps on front of you into the clearing, shield yourself and give him a point blank QE combo, and then run away/

heimerdinger and ori are pretty hard to face, unlike what you mentioned

you might be able to farm, but he will push you to your turret and ganks are really hard against a good heim (1.5 sec stun and slow...)

ori is another case, she has a lot more team utilities than you, you both can shield, and her shield is stronger than yours, she has much more late game than you, you might be able to win lane, but it's hard, and if she gain a significant advantage over your team after lane, its pretty much a lost game.
