Who Wins
- You win pre-6 trades with Q poke and E block against Aurelion Sol's passive stars, but struggle post-6 when his R knockback disrupts your W engage.
- Rakan's engage potential makes early fights favorable if you can coordinate properly.
Synergy & Trading
- Lead with Q poke when Aurelion Sol steps up for CS, then look for W-E combo when Rakan engages with W-R.
- Your E blocks Aurelion Sol's E damage and passive stars during all-ins.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push early waves to deny Aurelion Sol E stacks on minions, then roam mid-game to match his map pressure.
- Avoid slow pushing as it gives him free stacks and rotation opportunities.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't W engage when Aurelion Sol has R available as the knockback cancels your combo and leaves you exposed.
- Avoid fighting in minion waves where he can easily stack his E.
