Renekton vs Aurelion Sol

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Renekton should leverage his early lane pressure and high agency to deny Aurelion Sol a calm scaling phase in mid lane.
Focus on short burst trades with fury and use wave control to prevent Aurelion Sol from safely farming and roaming.
This matchup is a snowball vs scale duel where Renekton must snowball early leads to avoid Aurelion Sol's late-game teamfight impact.

Trading pattern

Trade only with high fury and (W) empowered available, using (E) dash in and out to avoid extended fights.
Punish Aurelion Sol when he mispositions or uses his (E) and (Q) for poke without mobility to escape.
Avoid trading when fury is low or both (E) casts are spent forward, as you become vulnerable to counterattacks.

Danger windows

Be cautious when fury is low and (E) second dash is unavailable, as you are vulnerable to poke and counter trades.
Avoid extended fights after Aurelion Sol completes Rylai's or upgrades his ultimate, as his damage and control increase.
Ping and hard push when Aurelion Sol roams to capitalize on his absence and avoid jungle pressure.

Early game

Use level 1-3 power spike to aggressively trade with (E) plus empowered (W) and (Q) to chunk Aurelion Sol before he has full kit access.
Stack fury early by controlling the wave and avoid using both (E) casts forward without a safe exit.
Punish Aurelion Sol's weak early game by forcing short trades and denying him easy farm and roam opportunities.

Power spikes

At level 3, use your full combo (Q), empowered (W), and (E) for short burst trades to force Aurelion Sol back.
At level 6, activate (R) to add durability and convert short trades into all-ins or dives when Aurelion Sol is low.
Respect Aurelion Sol's major scaling spikes at 75+ ultimate stacks and after he completes Rylai's, avoiding extended fights then.

Win conditions

Snowball early by forcing short trades with high fury and denying Aurelion Sol safe farm and roam.
Use level 6 (R) to convert pressure into kills or tower plates, preventing Aurelion Sol from reaching key scaling items.
Control wave tempo to maintain lane priority and punish any overextensions or cooldown mistakes from Aurelion Sol.
