How to win lane as Aurora against Vladimir · 52.32% win rate over 1,252 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Aurora | Your early poke goes unanswered since Vladimir's mitigation tool isn't online yet |
| Level 2 | Aurora | You continue winning trades as his sustain is still too weak to offset your damage |
| Level 3 | Aurora | Your poke keeps outpacing his healing through the level 3 power creep |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | Your damage lead holds through levels 4-5 despite his growing Transfusion healing |
| Level 6 | Aurora | You dodge his Hemoplague cast entirely, denying his signature setup at level 6 |
| First item | Aurora | Your item spike keeps your trade damage ahead of his defensive scaling |
| Two+ items | Aurora | Your burst combo continues to outpace his sustain in late-game skirmishes |
You control the level 1-2 phase decisively since Vladimir lacks Sanguine Pool until level 3 or later, meaning your early Q Twin Drift poke goes completely unanswered.
