Who Wins

  • You lose pre-6 due to Aurora's superior range and your lack of sustain, but you win post-6 all-ins with R+E+Q combo since she's squishy and your W negates her engage.
  • Focus on surviving early rather than trading.

How to Trade

  • Use Q on minions for sustain and only trade when Aurora wastes E, then immediately W if she tries to follow up.
  • Your trading windows are limited to when her abilities are on cooldown or when you have phase rush proc available.

Wave Control

  • Give up CS early to avoid poke, use E to clear waves safely, and look for freeze breaks with jungle assistance.
  • Post-6 you can clear waves efficiently and roam, so focus on scaling rather than laning dominance.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't greed for CS when Aurora has E available, as her engage range is longer than your Q range.
  • Never use W defensively unless you're actually in lethal danger, as the cooldown leaves you vulnerable to jungle ganks.
