So this may sound slightly noobish, but I just realized a great way to counter champs that like to jump on you when playing top lane. In the past I had thought the best thing to do was keep distant and poke by throwing an axe every now and then, but I think the best thing to do is max E first and just casually farm while trying to last hit/poke with Q while keeping E up at all times. Whenever they jump on you, immediately E them, then follow up with a few autos. They should realize pretty quick that they just lost a lot of hp, and they will either decide to run or all in. If they run, you won the trade and you have a chance to chase with Q and keep autoing them and perhaps ignite to finish them off. If they all in, then you have an hp advantage probably, you can use Q to slow them enough to run away if needed, they already used their engage, and you've already autoed a few times so your E will be off of CD soon. I think this is a great strategy, correct me if I'm wrong.
