| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Wukong | Level 1 favors you before Aurora's poke and mobility come online. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 is even as neither of you has a committal combo yet. |
| Level 3 | Wukong | Aurora's level 3 Q poke and W dodge out-trade and out-range you. |
| Levels 4-5 | Wukong | Level 4 stays hers as her mobility keeps slipping your gap-close. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 5 evens out during her W and escape cooldown windows. |
| First item | Wukong | Her first item lets Twofold Hex poke you out before you reach her. |
| Two+ items | Wukong | Late game your tanky Cyclone dive out-values her once you reach her. |
Level 1 favors you before Aurora's kit is online, but from level 3 her Q poke and W mobility let her chip you and slip your engages, so respect her range while farming.
