It's pretty powerful on her. You get the jump on them and hit them as many times as you can before they counter (which is usually twice if you've got another attack speed item) and then their AP counter attack usually brings you to about half health instead of 25% health left.

Then, after they waste their cooldowns, they have nothing to stop you with so you just stun and hit them over and over while they can't run away.
