How this matchup plays

Trying to land a full combo on Phoenix is a nightmare. Kunkka relies on X Marks the Spot to set up his Torrent and Ghostship, but Phoenix can simply Icarus Dive away at any point, completely wasting the setup and cooldowns. Even if Kunkka lands his spells, Phoenix can often survive and turn the fight. During teamfights, the problems get worse. Kunkka lacks the sustained high attack speed needed to help kill the Supernova egg, meaning his team often has to deal with it without his help or face a massive stun. To cap it off, Phoenix's Fire Spirits cripple Kunkka's right-click, gutting his Tidebringer damage when he needs it most.
