Neeko vs Aurora

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Neeko controls the lane by pressuring with E through minions and using disguise to create uncertainty.
Pressure Aurora early to deny her safe farming and avoid letting her scale comfortably.

Trading pattern

Fish for E roots through minions and follow up with Q burst when Aurora is close.
Punish Aurora after she uses W, as she loses her quick escape.
Avoid trading when Aurora's Aurora E is available and ready to reposition and burst.

Danger windows

Be cautious when E is on cooldown, as Neeko loses her main root and burst setup.
After Aurora uses W, she cannot escape quickly, so Neeko can play more aggressively.
When disguise or W clone is identified, Neeko's engage becomes easier to predict and counter.

Early game

Use E angles through minions to poke and zone Aurora before level 6.
Avoid extended trades if E misses, as Aurora can punish with burst.
Keep lane pressure high to exploit Aurora's low early agency and dodgable E animation.

Power spikes

Respect Aurora's level 6 ultimate spike for high mobility and burst.
Leverage Neeko's level 6 R for strong all-in and teamfight threat.
First completed AP item boosts Neeko's burst significantly, increasing kill pressure.

Win conditions

Use disguise, E root, and R ultimate to create picks or force spacing in lane.
Deny Aurora safe farming by poking with E and Q, exploiting her low range and dodgable E.
Turn level 6 power spike into all-ins or roams to snowball lead and control mid lane.

Tip: For Neeko vs Aurora, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
