maxing E first gives you better pushing ability and allows you to duel a lot better. good if you're going against someone who can't wave clear very well top, giving you huge control over the lane. Q max is for defensive play, if you need to farm from afar or can't do direct trades. for most purposes, E max is probably more practical.
