Tips to maximize your impact

Cast spells to recharge Sap Magic
In lane, use your spells: each spell you cast or get hit by lowers the cooldown of Sap Magic (passive), and your next auto heals you.
Saplings in the brush
Throw Sapling Toss (E) into brush: there, the sapling lasts longer, explodes wider and slows more.
Dive in with Twisted Advance
Dash to your target with Twisted Advance (W): you're untargetable during the dash, and they're rooted when you arrive.
Cast your wall from long range
Cast Nature's Grasp (R) from far away to engage or block a path: the wall moves slowly, and the root lasts longer after a long run.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

Draw him out of his domain
Don't fight in Frozen Domain (W): he gains move speed, attack speed and increased healing inside. Back off to draw him out of the zone.
Back off after his Chomp
If you deal physical damage, back off after his Chomp (Q): it steals some of your attack damage for a few seconds, and he gains it.
Get away from his pillar fast
Get away from Pillar of Ice (E) as fast as you can: it slows nearby enemies and blocks the path while it stands.
Back off when he steals your resists
Back off when he casts Subjugate (R) on you: he steals part of your armor and magic resist, and gains what you lose.
