to be more tankiness and still have a lot of damage.
Electrocute
is squishy and weaker on the more tank-heal meta in this Season.
Default
Better vs Assassins
The explain: "why these runes" is down.
Runes
Default
Aurelion Sol
can stack
Conqueror
to 10 just by one
Astral Flight
. That's makes very fast and easy activating this rune for him so it gives good fighting in early game and a lot of healing and damage in mid or late time.
Aurelion Sol
using A LOT of mana, have a low cooldown on abilities and you will have a long fightings so it needed.
Tenacity is needed and
Legend: Alacrity
or
Legend: Bloodline
is bad for Dragon.
Aurelion Sol have problems to kill low hp enemies. Surely you can choose
Last Stand
but if you low hp, it's very rarely chance to comeback so this one is better.
Default
Better vs Assassins
Same as
Presence of Mind
. Dragon needs mana.
Aurelion Sol using bait gameplay so usually you will be almost with full hp and it gives you more damage than
Gathering Storm
.
Same as
Presence of Mind
. Dragon needs mana.
Assassins will dive you and deal big damage, so this rune shouldn't work but can if you are Faker.
You can choose
Gathering Storm
but versus Assassins you need movement for better poke or escape, so this one is definitely better.
Don't forget to change it versus physical damage champions to
Armor
.

Flash is very useful for
Aurelion Sol
to make combo with your abilities and also
Ghost
or something different not needed.
I told earlier that it is difficult for the Dragon to finish off enemies and also this is good to cut off healing from someone.
Aurelion Sol just don't need it and he can use his
Singularity
as
Teleport
.
It's very bad spell now.
Items
Items
Good for
Aurelion Sol
in all matches.
You need movement so rush it.
It slows enemies so it allows better and easier pokes for you.
Buy it when you need more CC for team.
A lot of damage and survivability, so I usually buy it.
More damage than
Liandry's Anguish
but you will be more squishy.
It gives you movement, damage, ability haste, but no mana. It's good item for short fights when you can't farm more than 5 minutes in match.

I use skill path "Alternative" when i wanna do a lot of roams, fights or just in aggresively matches like versus Katarina. You will do less damage so be careful if you not feeded.
Matchups, counterpicks etc.
Everyone who can fight with you in face or deal damage to you beyond your stars is bad for
Aurelion Sol
.
P.S. I'll be adding more matchups gradually.
"In face" rushers
Distance killers
He just rush in your face and you can't deal damage.
How to beat: Keep your
Breath of Light
ready everytime when he wants to dive into you and don't try to 1v1.
Same as Rumble.
Avoids your
Breath of Light
by
Playful / Trickster
and rushing in your face.
How to beat: His early game is very weak so poke him often. He is dangerous only at close range.
You dead.
How to beat: Be prepared to dive in you and try to farm as much as possible.
Nightmare.
How to beat: This is very hard skill based matchup. Try to catch her in stun and don't go close to her.
You can't 1v1, she dive you and kills.
How to beat: Keep distance and wait for teamfights.
Add New Item
She can easily control you at distance to death.
How to beat: Try to hit
Breath of Light
first, she is easy target after stun.
Master of Distance.
How to beat: You can farm with Xerath on lane without big problems, but don't try to fight him when his
Shocking Orb
is ready. Try to bait him to miss and start fight.
What marksman doing in mid?
How to beat: He is definitely stronger than you in early game and lane, but losing games in mid or late, so try to not fed him.
Aurelion Sol
