Vex vs Aurora

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Vex is a high-agency anti-dash burst mage who must use her passive fear to control Aurora's mobility and win trades.
Pressure Aurora early to deny her scaling and prevent her from finding picks with her mobility and burst.

Trading pattern

Start trades by landing your passive fear to easily proc electrocute and burst Aurora.
Punish Aurora immediately after she uses W, as she loses her quick escape and repositioning.
Dodge Aurora E to avoid her damage and trade back aggressively when it's on cooldown.

Danger windows

Be cautious when your passive fear is on cooldown, as you lose your main trading tool and can be all-inned.
After Aurora uses W invisibility, she cannot escape quickly; use this window to engage with R.
Without R resets, you are immobile and vulnerable to Aurora's burst if caught off guard.

Early game

Use your passive fear to interrupt Aurora's Q-E combo and punish her long E animation.
Keep the wave on your side to pressure Aurora's low range and force her to miss farm.
Avoid all-ins unless your fear is ready, as failing to fear leaves you vulnerable without R resets.

Power spikes

Vex's major spikes are level 6 R for engage and reset, and first completed AP burst item.
Respect Aurora's level 6 R spike for her mobility and burst potential.
Both champions spike significantly with their first AP burst item, so avoid risky trades then.

Win conditions

Use your passive fear to control Aurora's dashes and win short trades.
Punish Aurora's W cooldown and long E animation by engaging aggressively with R.
Deny Aurora farm and picks by pressuring the wave and forcing her into defensive play early.

Tip: For Vex vs Aurora, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
