Who Wins
- You struggle pre-6 due to Aurora's mobility advantage and your limited escape options when she engages with E.
- Post-6 you dominate through R zone control and W positioning, making it nearly impossible for Aurora to engage effectively.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern involves using Q when Aurora commits with E, then immediately placing W to block her retreat while following up with E and R.
- Focus on short trades using Q-E combos when she's farming, as extended fights favor your sustained damage.
Wave Control
- Play defensively early and focus on farming safely with Q and E, accepting some CS loss to avoid Aurora's burst combos.
- After level 6, use R to control wave position and zone Aurora from farm while building toward your mid-game power spike.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W defensively in early levels as it's your only escape tool when Aurora engages with E.
- Avoid fighting without mana for R post-6, as Aurora can easily all-in you when your zone control is unavailable.
