How to win lane as Karma against Aurelion Sol · 64% win rate over 25 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Karma | Level 1 you dominate — AS has no threat range yet and you freely poke and deny. |
| Level 2 | Karma | Level 2 continues in your favor as his stars are still too short to punish you. |
| Level 3 | Karma | Level 3 you're still clearly ahead, denying his farm and health. |
| Levels 4-5 | Karma | Level 4 remains your window as his kit is still purely passive-scaling. |
| Level 6 | Karma | Level 5 is your strongest phase, right before his ultimate flips the tempo. |
| First item | Aurelion Sol | At 6 Voice of Light gives Aurelion Sol global poke and stun pressure that outclasses your kit. |
| Two+ items | Aurelion Sol | Late game AS's map-wide zoning and burst potential take over, out-scaling your poke-and-shield playstyle. |
Levels 1-2 you dominate — Aurelion Sol is slow, has minimal star coverage, and can't punish your Mantra-Q poke or contest all-ins if you commit.
