Aurelion Sol vs Malphite

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming safely to reach Aurelion Sol's strong mid-late game scaling against Malphite's low early lane pressure.
Maintain medium lane pressure to avoid giving Malphite a passive lane and prevent him from freely scaling into teamfight engage.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Aurelion Sol must outscale and leverage his roaming and teamfight presence.

Trading pattern

Trade short poke combos using (E) into (Q) when Malphite's passive shield is down or (Q) slow is on cooldown.
Avoid prolonged trades before completing your first major item and before level 6 to prevent being punished by Malphite's engage.
Use your range and waveclear to pressure Malphite without overextending into his (R) engage threat post-6.

Danger windows

Be cautious around Malphite's level 6 when his (R) engage can lead to lethal all-ins or ganks.
Avoid extended trades when Malphite's passive shield is active and his (Q) slow is available.
Watch for (E) attack speed slow which can reduce your trade effectiveness and open you to counterattacks.

Early game

Focus on stable farming and avoid extended trades before level 6 to minimize risk from Malphite's poke and engage.
Use (E) into (Q) for safe poke and waveclear to chip the wave and keep Malphite at bay.
Respect Malphite's passive shield and avoid all-ins before you have your full kit to reduce vulnerability.

Power spikes

At 75+ Stardust stacks, leverage your upgraded ultimate for stronger teamfight and chase pressure; prioritize stable farm to reach this.
After completing Rylai's, increase wave pressure and trade confidence while tracking Malphite's cooldowns.
Respect Malphite's level 6 (R) engage as a major threat; avoid risky positioning and prepare to disengage or dodge.

Win conditions

Play toward stable farming and safe resets to reach your major power spikes and scaling thresholds.
Use superior waveclear and poke to deny Malphite a calm scaling lane and force him into passive play.
Leverage your upgraded ultimate and Rylai's power spike to pressure waves and roam for impactful teamfights, maximizing your late game influence.
