Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming and scaling as Aurelion Sol has low early agency against Vex's high lane pressure.
Use (E) into (Q) for poke and waveclear to maintain medium lane pressure without overextending.

Trading pattern

Avoid extended trades to reduce chances of Vex triggering her fear and burst damage.
Punish missed fear or aggressive (R) use by stepping forward with (E) and (Q) for damage.

Before you have your full kit, do not overcommit or trade long to prevent getting burst down.

Early game

Use (W) to reposition and avoid Vex's burst combos before level 6.
Respect Vex's passive fear and avoid engaging before you have your full kit to prevent burst trades.

Completing Rylai's increases your control and chase, enabling stronger trades and wave pressure.
Vex's level 6 (R) and first AP burst item increase her kill threat; respect these windows to avoid lethal trades.
