He pokes a champion with an undo button — trade Q passes, blink the gaps, and rewind the lane's one mistake.
Track: Aurelion Sol's W — Astral Flight (22–16s cooldown). His reposition and escape — he is a stationary battery while it is down.
Read from Ekko's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Aurelion Sol.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ekko | His lack of mobility and slow early ramp let you dominate level 1-2 trades outright |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Singularity (E) arrives, it pulls you toward the centre, and every second inside is permanent Stardust for him |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Still even: your W cancels his channels, but the black hole holds the ground you need to stand on |
| Levels 4-5 | Ekko | Your dash-based engage and combo damage keep the advantage in your favor through levels 4-5 |
| Level 6 | Ekko | Falling Star stuns but costs him 120s at rank 1, and it still does not give him any escape from your engage |
| First item | Even / skill | Your completed item burst punishes his immobility hard, extending your lead into the item phase |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Your flanking mobility continues to punish his positioning even as his zone control matters more late |
Aurelion Sol is slow to ramp and has zero mobility at level 1-2, so bully him with the dash before Singularity (E) is big enough to zone you out — Breath of Light is a channel, and simply stepping out of it ends the damage. Look for all-in windows whenever Astral Flight is down, since at 22s it is his only escape. By level 3-5 the black hole makes him harder to walk into, so time your engages around its 12s instead.
