K'Sante vs Aurelion Sol

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

This is a control vs. scale matchup where K'Sante must pressure early to deny Aurelion Sol's safe farming and scaling.
K'Sante should use terrain and (Q) stacks to control space and force Aurelion Sol into unfavorable short trades.

Trading pattern

Trade around stacked (Q) and use (W) to absorb and interrupt Aurelion Sol's poke attempts.
Punish Aurelion Sol immediately after he uses (Q) and (W) since his damage and waveclear drop.
Reserve (R) for isolated fights near terrain where you can secure a winning duel and displacement advantage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (W) is down, as you lose damage reduction and displacement, making you vulnerable to poke.
After using (R), your durability drops; avoid extended fights until you recover.
Respect Aurelion Sol's roaming windows by pushing waves quickly and pinging for potential danger.

Early game

Aggressively punish Aurelion Sol before he has his full kit by using quick (Q) stacks and (W) displacement.
Use terrain angles to threaten (R) isolation and force Aurelion Sol to play cautiously.
Avoid extended trades without (Q3) stacks or (W) ready to maintain durability and control.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) only when you can isolate Aurelion Sol near terrain for a decisive kill or peel.
After completing your first tank item, trade confidently around (Q) stacks and preserve (W) for key moments.
Respect Aurelion Sol's major scaling spikes at 75+ Stardust stacks and after his Rylai's completion by playing safer and focusing on stable farm.

Win conditions

Deny Aurelion Sol a calm scaling lane by applying early pressure and forcing him off farm.
Use terrain to create isolation kills with (R) when you have (Q3) stacks and (W) ready.
Transition your lane control into front-line peel and displacement in teamfights to enable your carries and secure objectives.
