How to win lane as Aurora against Lillia · 52.83% win rate over 53 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | She pokes with her Q spin and her burn ticks, and at level 1 your Q recast isn't online yet — this stage is a genuine wash before your kit comes together. |
| Level 2 | Aurora | With Q plus E your curse-pull out-trades her Q-spin poke and your passive heals her burn chip — she has no point-click reply to the recast. |
| Level 3 | Aurora | Your full poke combo punishes Lillia's short E dash every time she steps up to spin, and she can only kite from the Q-pull. |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | Your poke, passive healing, and W reset line up to control trades she can only kite, not contest. |
| Level 6 | Aurora | Between Worlds zones her off CS and your W is your answer to her R sleep cast — your cleanest all-in before her items. |
| First item | Aurora | Luden's/Malignance sharpens the Q-recast burst and her squishy frame folds to one combo on this spike. |
| Two+ items | Lillia | A fed Lillia kites you forever and one landed R sleep into a burn detonation kills you while W is down — close before two items. |
Lillia wants to chip you with her Q spin (Blooming Blow) and E seed-bounce while her passive burn ticks, dancing at range — but her only real mobility is the E dash, so your Q is a poke she struggles to answer. Fire Q to curse her, then recast to pull it back through her for the second hit; her escape is the E hop, and your Spirit Abjuration passive heals back the burn she stacks on you. Don't chase her into her own minions where the E gets value, and respect that level 1, before your Q recast is meaningful, she can out-spin a single cast.
