This is Aurelion Sol's own plan; across 389 pooled games the lane is leaning Aurelion Sol.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Taliyah | Taliyah's poke-and-knockup combo threatens damage and ganks while you have no ranged answer yet |
| Level 2 | Taliyah | Her terrain-based zoning and jungler synergy continue to control the lane in her favor |
| Level 3 | Taliyah | Her poke and roam potential remain ahead of your kit heading into your level-6 power spike |
| Levels 4-5 | Taliyah | Same dynamic continues — her ranged combo still outclasses your pre-6 toolkit |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Weaver's Wall turns every roam into a threat while your Falling Star sits on a 120-second cooldown |
| First item | Aurelion Sol | Your item power spike lets your sustained damage start outracing her poke-based playstyle |
| Two+ items | Aurelion Sol | By two items your scaling and range clearly surpass her poke-and-mobility dependent kit |
You're behind for the first five levels — Threaded Volley reaches 1000 and drops to 3 seconds by rank 5, so she pokes you off the wave for free. The kill pattern is Seismic Shove throwing you into Unraveled Earth, so never stand within 900 of her with the minefield already down. Farm from behind your caster minions and let her waste mana on Worked Ground.
