Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Control the lane by using terrain to threaten (E) wall stuns and hold (W) to deny Aurelion Sol's approach dashes.
Prioritize disrupting Aurelion Sol's scaling by applying pressure early and preventing passive farming.

Trading pattern

Trade around your passive shield and terrain, using (Q) for damage and slows, then threaten (E) only when a wall stun is guaranteed.
Punish Aurelion Sol's inability to dodge your (E) near walls by forcing trades when he's close to terrain.
Avoid extended fights away from walls where (E) stun threat is weak and he can poke safely.

Danger windows

Respect Aurelion Sol's upgraded ultimate after 75+ Stardust stacks as his teamfight threat rises significantly.
Be cautious after Aurelion Sol completes Rylai's, as his chase and poke become harder to avoid.
Avoid extended trades or fights once Aurelion Sol reaches late-game scaling where his roaming and teamfight impact peak.

Early game

Exploit Aurelion Sol's weak early game by looking for fast all-ins before he unlocks his full kit.
Use short trades with (Q) and passive shield near walls to avoid his poke and punish his positioning.
Avoid wasting (W) early; hold it to counter his limited mobility attempts or any dash-like movement.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to disengage or isolate Aurelion Sol, denying his roams or forcing him out of fights.
After your first tank item, hold (W) for dashes and fight near walls to maximize durability and control.
Pressure Aurelion Sol pre-6 aggressively to punish his weak early kit and delay his scaling.

Win conditions

Deny Aurelion Sol a calm scaling lane by using terrain to land (E) stuns and holding (W) to block his mobility.
Use your tank durability and (R) displacement to control fights and peel for your carries.
Pressure early waves to force Aurelion Sol into defensive farming, preventing him from safely reaching his power spikes.
