Aurelion Sol vs Taliyah

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming and scaling as Aurelion Sol has low early agency against Taliyah's poke and displacement.
Use (E) into (Q) to clear waves and maintain medium lane pressure without overextending.
Play toward late game where upgraded (R) and Rylais completion enable strong roaming and teamfight impact.

Trading pattern

Trade by using (E) to position stars and follow with (Q) poke when (W) and (E) are down.
Punish wasted (W) or (E) by stepping forward with (E) into (Q) trades.
Avoid dashing or moving predictably into (E) slow and (W) displacement zones.

Danger windows

Vulnerable before full kit; avoid extended trades to prevent punishment from Taliyah's early all-ins.
Beware when Taliyah has (W) and (E) ready, as she can displace and slow you.
Punish Taliyah's roams by hard pushing waves and taking plates or jungle pressure when she leaves lane.

Early game

Focus on safe farming and avoid engaging before your full kit is available to prevent early all-ins.
Use (E) to position stars and follow with (Q) for waveclear, respecting (W) and (E) cooldowns.
Track (W) and (E) cooldowns to find windows for short trades or wave pressure.

Power spikes

At 75+ star stacks, upgraded (R) increases roaming and teamfight pressure; play for stable farm and impactful fights.
Completing Rylais boosts your chase and kite potential against Taliyah's limited mobility.
Respect Taliyah's level 6 (R) and first mage item spike for increased map pressure and poke.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure by farming safely and controlling waves with (E) into (Q).
Exploit windows when (W) and (E) are down to trade or push for roams.
Reach late game with upgraded (R) and Rylais to dominate teamfights and leverage superior roaming impact.
