Vayne vs Aurelion Sol

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Vayne is a high-mobility ranged top laner who must pressure and deny Aurelion Sol's safe scaling lane early.
Focus on using spacing and kiting to avoid getting caught by Aurelion Sol's poke and waveclear while setting up for all-ins.
This is a scale vs scale matchup where Vayne needs to leverage early agency to punish before Aurelion Sol reaches major power spikes.

Trading pattern

Trade by auto-attacking from max range and using (Q) to reposition and avoid Aurelion Sol's poke.
Hold (E) to (E) Aurelion Sol into terrain for a stun when he tries to engage or overextend.
Avoid using (Q) forward when his engage is ready, and punish after (E) when his counter-engage is weaker.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Aurelion Sol has his upgraded ultimate and Rylai's, as his damage and chase potential increase.
Vulnerable after using (E) since your engage is down and Aurelion Sol can punish with poke and waveclear.
Avoid pushing without vision to reduce risk of ganks and being collapsed on during Aurelion Sol's roaming windows.

Early game

Use early levels to aggressively punish Aurelion Sol's weak early kit with fast all-ins before he has full waveclear.
Keep the wave on your side to avoid overextending and getting punished by his poke or jungle ganks.
Avoid pushing without vision since Aurelion Sol's roaming and waveclear can punish unsafe positioning.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) empowers Vayne's dueling and stealth repositioning; use it when you have space to kite and force Aurelion Sol into tight areas.
Two-item side-lane spike greatly increases Vayne's true damage DPS; pressure side lanes and force isolated duels.
Respect Aurelion Sol's major spikes at 75+ Stardust stacks and after Rylai's completion by playing safe and avoiding extended trades.

Win conditions

Use superior early game agency to punish Aurelion Sol's weak early kit with quick all-ins and deny his scaling.
Scale into late game where your true damage and mobility allow you to shred Aurelion Sol and his team.
Utilize side-lane pressure and kiting to isolate Aurelion Sol and force fights on your terms, leveraging (R) stealth and (E) wall stuns.
