Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1TalonLevel 1 is yours because ASol has no early kill pressure and you can bully his farm freely.
Level 2TalonLevel 2 stays Talon-favoured as your slow-into-Q beats his weak early Breath of Light trade.
Level 3TalonLevel 3 is your window: full W+Q burst on a stack-reliant mage with no escape.
Levels 4-5TalonLevels 4-5 remain yours since he still lacks mobility and stacks to survive your all-in.
Level 6TalonLevel 6 stays yours as Shadow Assault kills him before his ultimate and stacks matter.
First itemTalonFirst item favours you because Dirk/Youmuu's one-combos him before his health and stacks scale.
Two+ itemsAurelion SolTwo-plus items are Aurelion Sol's: stacked Q, huge health, and Astral Flight kite and outscale you.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1-4 are yours to dominate. Aurelion Sol has no early kill threat and needs stacks, so W-slow and Q onto him whenever he steps up to farm; his Breath of Light barely trades back over a short window and he has no escape yet. Shove and starve his stacks relentlessly.
