Playing as Aurelion Sol
Tips to maximize your impact
- Keep your breath on one champion
Keep Breath of Light (Q) on the same champion: each second triggers a burst of bonus damage and gives you Stardust.
- Farm your Stardust
Farm with Singularity (E): every enemy that dies inside, minions included, gives you Stardust, which permanently strengthens all your abilities.
- Fly to escape or chase
Cast Astral Flight (W) to escape a gank or to chase: during the flight, Breath of Light (Q) has no cooldown and no channel limit.
- Hit several champions with your R
Cast Falling Star (R) on several enemies: it stuns them, and each champion hit gives you Stardust to upgrade your next cast into The Skies Descend (R).
Playing against Sivir
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge her blade's return too
Dodge Boomerang Blade (Q), then its return: it damages on the way out and on the way back, and it costs Sivir a lot of mana.
- Pop her shield first
If you have CC, cast a cheap spell first, or fake a step forward: Spell Shield (E) only blocks one ability, and heals her if it blocks.
- Back off when she casts On The Hunt
Back off when she casts On The Hunt (R): her whole nearby team gains move speed to engage on yours.
- Don't let her push alone
Don't leave her alone on a lane for too long: with Ricochet (W), her autos bounce between minions, and your wave, then your tower, fall fast.
