Aurelion Sol Counters
Champions that beat Aurelion Sol
- Jaycemid
Shock Blast (Q) cannon-form poke interrupts the Breath of Light (Q) channel from outside Astral Flight (W) range. Thundering Blow (E) hammer-form knockback cancels the W flight gap-close before Singularity (E) pull lands.
- Siontop
Soul Furnace (W) shield soaks Breath of Light (Q) channel chip damage. Unstoppable Onslaught (R) charges in from far off-screen to interrupt the channel, and Roar of the Slayer (E) slows ASol and shreds his armour before Falling Star (R) lands.
- Yasuomid
Wind Wall (W) blocks the entire Breath of Light (Q) breath line — ASol's main damage source becomes useless mid-trade. Steel Tempest (Q3) plus Sweeping Blade (E) punishes the missed channel with an all-in he cannot kite from outside Astral Flight (W).
- Yonemid
Spirit Cleave (W) shields off the Breath of Light (Q) channel tick damage. Soul Unbound (E) baits an Astral Flight (W) flight while his body stays untargetable, and Fate Sealed (R) closes the gap through ASol's mid-channel for a Mortal Steel (Q) knock-up finish.
- Zedmid
Living Shadow (W) plus Death Mark (R) chains two dashes onto ASol mid Breath of Light (Q) channel, interrupting his damage. Razor Shuriken (Q) plus Shadow Slash (E) marks burst him faster than Cosmic Creator stardust scales, and Astral Flight (W) cooldown is too long to escape.
Champions Aurelion Sol beats
- Azirmid
Breath of Light (Q) cone out-ranges Azir's Arise! (W) soldier auto range. Astral Flight (W) follows him through the Emperor's Divide (R) knock-back and Cosmic Creator scaling burns through the Shifting Sands (E) shield before Conquering Sands (Q) chains a slow.
- Galiomid
Galio needs close range for Justice Punch (E) and Shield of Durand (W) taunt. ASol kites with Astral Flight (W) and Breath of Light (Q) from outside his auto range; if Galio Hero's Entrance (R) flashes in, Singularity (E) pulls him off-position.
- Karthusjungle
Karthus has zero mobility outside Flash and Defile (E) needs melee proximity. Astral Flight (W) follows him through Wall of Pain (W) slow, Breath of Light (Q) chunks his HP, and Falling Star (R) stuns the Requiem (R) channel before it lands.
- Smolderbot
Liandry's burn through Breath of Light (Q) chips Smolder before he can stack Dragon Practice. Astral Flight (W) catches the Flap, Flap, Flap (E) escape and Falling Star (R) finishes him before he reaches the 125-stack Super Scorcher Breath (Q) threshold.
- Veigarmid
Veigar has no dash and Event Horizon (E) is a slow cage telegraph. Astral Flight (W) flight closes the gap while Breath of Light (Q) keeps channelling — he eats sustained Q damage outside Baleful Strike (Q) range and dies before Primordial Burst (R) sets up.
