| Level 2 | Aurora | Her continued dash-poke pattern keeps her ahead as you struggle to punish her aggression |
| Level 3 | Aurora | Sustained poke damage and safe engages maintain her lane advantage into the late-early game |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | The pattern holds as her range and mobility continue to outclass your positioning tools |
| Level 6 | Aurora | Her ultimate engage/disengage tool keeps her ahead through this all-in-capable window |

Aurora's ranged poke and dash mobility let her chip you down while dodging your soldier zoning entirely, so you're mostly playing defensively and looking to farm safely rather than contest trades directly. Track Aurora Across the Veil (W): 22s at rank 1 — she lands invisible, so the hop is both her escape and her setup. Aurora's The Weirding poke plus Spirit Abjuration's healing chips you down every time you step up to farm, and her 22s hop dodges your soldier zoning outright.
