How to play it
- Press early

- Magic resistance
Aurelion Sol deals magic damage — Maw of Malmortius as your 2nd or 3rd item.
- Full combo or nothing
Aurelion Sol is squishy — wait for every ability, go in once. No half-combo trades.
- Ward the jungle
You out-trade Aurelion Sol; the only danger is their jungler — ward before pressing.
When you are in danger

Aurelion Sol gets far more dangerous with the ultimate — dial back after level 5.
