Aurelion Sol vs Akshan

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Focus on farming safely to reach your late-game scaling against Akshan's early lane pressure.
Avoid giving Akshan space for short trades or roam opportunities by managing wave states.
Use your waveclear and roaming to impact sidelanes once you hit key power spikes.

Trading pattern

Poke safely with (E) into (Q) from max range to avoid Akshan's short-range autos and engage.
After Akshan uses (E) aggressively, punish his missed engage cooldown with wave pressure and poke.
Maintain spacing to prevent Akshan from closing gaps with (E) for quick trades or all-ins.

Danger windows

Be wary when (E) is available to engage; punish only if he misses or overextends.
(R) at level 6 can quickly turn fights; avoid extended trades without your full kit.
Watch for (W) camouflage enabling roams; hard push and ping when he leaves lane.

Early game

Use (E) into (Q) for poke and waveclear while respecting Akshan's level 2 all-in threat.
Avoid extended trades before you have full kit access to reduce risk from Akshan's burst and mobility.
Track (E) cooldown to punish missed engages or repositioning attempts.

Power spikes

Your upgraded (R) at 75+ stacks and completing Rylais greatly improve your teamfight and chase potential.
Respect Akshan's level 2 (Q)+(E)/(W) combo for early all-in power; avoid risky trades then.
Akshan's level 6 (R) and first AD item spike increase his kill threat; play cautiously around these.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure by farming safely and punishing missed (E) engages.
Use waveclear and upgraded (R) to roam and impact sidelanes post-level 6.
Reach late game with Rylais to leverage strong teamfight control and roaming presence against Akshan.
