Track: Ryze's W — Rune Prison (11–9s cooldown). Point-blank root — respect the EQ chain that follows it.
Read from Aurelion Sol's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Ryze.
This is Aurelion Sol's own plan; across 1,150 pooled games the lane is leaning Aurelion Sol.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ryze | Ryze's Overload poke and root setup punish you every trade while you have no answer yet |
| Level 2 | Ryze | His mana-scaling damage and root chains keep outpacing your kit through the early game |
| Level 3 | Ryze | Spell Flux into Rune Prison roots at 615 range and the burst follows, so you stay on the back foot |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Same story — his all-in and poke both still outclass your pre-6 toolkit |
| Level 6 | Ryze | Falling Star gives you a stun, but his Flux-into-root chain still owns level 6 |
| First item | Aurelion Sol | Your item power spike (Liandry's/comet stacking) starts out-trading his sustained damage |
| Two+ items | Aurelion Sol | With two items your burst, wave clear, and teamfight presence eclipse a Ryze who needs to be fed to threaten you |
This lane is rough for the first five levels — Overload refreshes off his other spells and out-trades your beam, and Spell Flux into Rune Prison roots you at 615 range, cancelling the channel outright. Buy sustain, farm from max range with Q, and never contest a trade while Flux is on you. Ward river to see Realm Warp roams coming, since the portal opens 3000 units away to snowball a side lane.
