Your Q (Breath of Light) stacks Stardust — once you have enough stacks, your abilities improve massively. Farm with Q to scale.
W (Astral Flight) is a repositioning dash — use it to dodge ganks or chase down an enemy.
Your R (Falling Star / The Skies Descend) is an enhanced long-range execute — snipe low-health targets rather than opening with it.
Aurelion Sol scales infinitely — focus on farming and stacking, your late game is one of the strongest in the game.

Playing against Aurelion Sol
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Punish him aggressively in the early game: Aurelion Sol is very weak before his stacks and items.
Assassins like Zed or Fizz destroy him in lane — he has no reliable defensive mobility.
Don't let the game go long: an Aurelion Sol who farms freely becomes a monster in the late game. Force fights early.
Side-step his Q (breath): if you dodge it, he doesn't stack and his DPS is considerably reduced.
