Avoid champions like Lee Sin, who can gapclose and slow you.

E isn't as problematic as you think, and pushing isn't as bad as you think, either. Kayle is ranged, has a slow, and a MS boost, so she has a much higher chance of escaping than most other solo tops. Let's not forget the Heal that comes with the MS boost. I usually max E first simply because you're building items like Stinger or Rageblade to up your AS. Also, the other two spells have increasing mana costs, so it's not efficient to put ranks into them first. Especially Q, whose ratios and % dmg increase isn't nearly as useful now as it will be later.
