Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1KledYou concede level 1 — you have no spammable poke and want to preserve Skaarl's health while her Q chips you for free, so just last-hit at range.
Level 2KledW comes online for the on-hit shotgun shots and her only escape is a single E blink — bait it, then W her down before it resets.
Level 3KledFull re-E all-in (Q + E + W) bursts a squishy Aurora through her blink window; one combo halves her health bar.
Levels 4-5KledYou out-trade her poke with remount sustain through 4-5 — her single-target Q can't match what you heal back, so keep forcing short trades.
Level 6AuroraAt 6 her ult flips the window — W exile plus a root and Q burst can zone you off the wave and punish your charge, so respect the blink.
First itemEven / skillEclipse/Trinity sheen burst plus your Q yank closes her blink gap — this is your peak, force every all-in here before her AP item lands.
Two+ itemsKledEven past her first item your bruiser spike still bullies her if she's in range — keep colliding her into terrain with R before two items let her kite.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Aurora is squishy and her only real escape is her E blink, so your level 2-3 all-in is brutal here — E in, W on her for the rapid shotgun shots, then re-E back if she flashes. The trick is baiting that blink: throw Q to stick the trap-slow, and if she burns E to dodge it you can yank yourself onto her the moment she lands. Don't waste E chasing a full-health Aurora before you have W up; her Q poke chips Skaarl's mount health while you wait, and a dismount this early just hands her a free zone.
