Aurelion Sol vs Mordekaiser

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming safely and scaling into a powerful mid-late game threat rather than early aggression.
Maintain medium lane pressure but avoid giving Mordekaiser passive lane control to prevent extended trades favoring him.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Aurelion Sol must manage wave control and avoid Mordekaiser's isolation threats.

Trading pattern

Use (E) to engage followed by (Q) for poke and waveclear, trading before Mordekaiser can activate his passive or (W) shield.
Punish Mordekaiser after he misses (E) by stepping forward to apply pressure and deny his extended trade damage.
Avoid extended trades where Mordekaiser's passive and (W) healing make fights unfavorable; keep trades short and poke-focused.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Mordekaiser has his (E) pull available and passive active, as he can force lethal extended trades.
Avoid fighting alone once Mordekaiser reaches level 6 and can isolate you with (R), especially if he has health or item advantage.
Respect Mordekaiser's threat window when his (W) shield is charged, as he can convert damage into healing during trades.

Early game

Focus on farming and using (E) into (Q) for poke without overextending before you have your full kit.
Avoid fast all-ins from Mordekaiser by respecting his (E) pull and waiting for safer trade windows.
Use your medium mobility to position safely and avoid getting caught isolated or pulled in.

Power spikes

Respect Mordekaiser's level 6 (R) isolation power and save mobility or defensive cooldowns to survive the realm duration.
Play toward stable farm and safe resets to reach your major spike at 75+ Stardust stacks when your (R) upgrades and teamfight impact increases.
After completing Rylai's, pressure waves and trades more confidently as your damage and control improve significantly.

Win conditions

Focus on stable farming and wave control to reach your late-game scaling power and upgraded (R) ultimate.
Use your roaming and teamfight presence post-spike to pressure other lanes and avoid isolated 1v1s against Mordekaiser.
Punish Mordekaiser when he misses (E) or before level 6 by applying poke and denying extended trades to delay his item and level spikes.
