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 Orianna's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Aurelion Sol.
This is Orianna's own plan; across 1,096 pooled games the lane is Aurelion Sol-favoured.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Aurelion Sol is immobile with only chip poke at level 1, so your ranged ball dominates. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | At level 2 his Breath of Light stacking evens the very short trades into a skill test. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | At level 3 it stays even as he farms stacks and you jockey for wave control. |
| Levels 4-5 | Orianna | At level 4 your superior combo and range let you shove and deny his stacks again. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 your Q-E-R short-trade burst still beats his R even as it comes online. |
| First item | Orianna | On first item your poke plus Shockwave out-trades his single-target Breath of Light. |
| Two+ items | Aurelion Sol | His stacked Breath of Light and empowered R out-range and out-damage you once the game goes long. |
Level 1 is clearly yours and the whole early lane favours you: Aurelion Sol is one of the weakest, most immobile early mids, leaning on Breath of Light chip while he tries to farm Singularity stacks. Your ball outranges him, so land Command: Attack every time he steps up, shove the wave, and deny his stacks. Keep the ball on your body so any aggression eats a return combo — he has no tools to punish you before 6.
