Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to inferior waveclear and roaming capability, struggling to match Aurelion Sol's map pressure and wave manipulation.
- Post-6 you gain kill pressure through R execute potential, but still lose in pure 1v1 scenarios due to his sustained damage output.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke when he's CSing and immediately W to reflect his W stars back at him, creating favorable short trades.
- Stack your passive projectiles before engaging and look for E root setups to land guaranteed Q damage while he's immobilized.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely with Q and building Overwhelm stacks for mid-game teamfight impact rather than trying to match his roams.
- Ward aggressively to track his movements and communicate with your team when he's missing, as you cannot follow effectively.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W defensively against his Q waveclear, save it specifically for reflecting his W star damage in trades.
- Avoid chasing him through the jungle without vision, as his mobility and kiting potential make solo picks extremely difficult to execute.
