Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior all-in potential once you land W, as Aurora lacks reliable escape tools and your passive proc outdamages her extended trades.
- Post-6 you maintain kill pressure advantage since your R provides guaranteed gap close and stealth, while her R requires setup and can be dodged.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves landing W rake on Aurora, immediately following with Q dash for passive proc, then backing off before she can respond with her full combo.
- Avoid extended trades where she can kite with Q movement speed and land multiple Q hits, as her sustained damage will outscale your burst in longer engagements.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to establish priority, then look for roam timings after clearing waves quickly with W.
- Aurora's waveclear is slower than yours pre-6, so you can create map pressure while she's forced to farm under tower and miss CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't engage when Aurora has her E spirit available, as she can use it to reposition away from your all-in or turn the fight with the execute damage.
- Wait for her to use E aggressively or defensively before committing to trades, as your kill windows are much smaller when she has all abilities available.
