Kayle vs Aurelion Sol

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

This is a scaling matchup where Kayle must survive early pressure and reach level 6 to gain ranged attacks and (R).
Kayle should avoid giving Aurelion Sol a passive lane to freely scale and instead focus on safe farming and wave control to deny easy scaling.

Trading pattern

Use (Q) slows and resistance shred to trade safely once ranged attacks are available post-level 6.
Concede early trades if (R) is down or before ranged form; only trade decisively when (R) is ready to deny burst.
Punish Aurelion Sol if he wastes engage or key cooldowns by stepping forward with empowered (E) attacks after level 6.

Danger windows

Kayle is highly vulnerable before level 6 and when (R) is down; avoid all-ins and extended trades during these windows.
Be cautious of Aurelion Sol's poke and waveclear that can force you out of lane or delay scaling if the wave is frozen away from your tower.
Watch for ganks or roams after Aurelion Sol hits key item spikes; hard push and reset safely to avoid danger.

Early game

Avoid extended trades before level 6 as Kayle is vulnerable and Aurelion Sol's poke can be dangerous.
Use (Q) and (W) to sustain and slow Aurelion Sol when he attempts poke, focusing on safe farm near your tower.
Prioritize hitting level 6 safely to unlock ranged form and (R) for survivability.

Power spikes

Kayle's level 6 unlocks ranged attacks and (R), enabling safer farming and trades; use (R) proactively to deny burst.
Kayle's late-game DPS threshold with items turns her into a major side-lane and teamfight threat; focus on protecting uptime and front-to-back fights.
Respect Aurelion Sol's power spikes after completing Rylai's and his ultimate upgrade at 75+ stacks by playing safe and avoiding extended trades.

Win conditions

Survive early lane pressure by farming safely and using (Q) and (W) to mitigate poke until level 6.
Reach ranged form and item thresholds to become a potent DPS threat, then take longer trades with (R) ready to deny burst.
Use your late-game invulnerability and DPS to control side-lane fights and teamfights, focusing on front-to-back positioning and protecting uptime.
