Read from Qiyana's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Aurelion Sol.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Qiyana | Level 1 is yours — ASol has no early damage worth respecting and only one mobility tool to your dash. |
| Level 2 | Qiyana | Level 2 you step up freely and control the wave while he can only try to stack. |
| Level 3 | Qiyana | Level 3 with all elements you chunk him before Breath of Light can whittle you. |
| Levels 4-5 | Qiyana | Levels 4-5 you close every gap and freeze to choke his stack economy. |
| Level 6 | Qiyana | Level 6 his telegraphed Falling Star does nothing to stop your gap-close and burst. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item you one-shot him from brush stealth before his Stardust stacks matter. |
| Two+ items | Qiyana | At 2+ items you stay his 1v1 executioner, keeping him too poor to reach his monster scaling. |
Levels 1-2 are entirely yours: Aurelion Sol has no early damage worth respecting and only one mobility tool, so you step up freely and control the wave while he tries to stack. Deny his passive farm with aggressive positioning under the threat of your element — his whole game plan is scaling, and you are built to punish that. Track Aurelion Sol Astral Flight (W): 22s at rank 1, 16s max — his only escape; he is a stationary battery while it is down.
