A level-by-level game plan for Akshan vs Aurelion Sol.
Levels 1-2
Mid lane is short — poke and trades start immediately, respect the stronger level 1-2 kit.
- Akshan is weak early — focus on last-hitting safely and avoid unnecessary exchanges.
- Aurelion Sol likely outranges you — approach through minion wave cover instead of walking in.
- OP.GG data flags Aurelion Sol as a strong counter to Akshan in this role — expect them to look for early trades, so play a touch safer than usual.
Levels 3-5
Roams start mattering — a shoving wave lets you help your jungler or side lanes.
- Auto-attack trades start favoring you as attack speed and items come online.
- Expect poke whenever you're out of position; punish only after they use their combo.
Level 6
Ultimates online — mid laners are usually the first to threaten kills across the map.
- Depending on your kit this is either a power spike or just more survivability — play accordingly.
- Their ultimate usually adds burst or CC — don't sit still in their range once it's up.
Levels 7-11
Wave management and roam timing win games from here on.
- Positioning in skirmishes matters as much as damage — never be the first one hit.
- Watch for wave clear into a fast roam — don't get caught alone in a side lane.
Levels 12-15
Core item spikes decide who wins extended trades and skirmishes.
- Your crit or on-hit spike should make you the biggest DPS threat in every fight.
- Burst items make them a one-combo kill threat on squishies — use minions or terrain as cover.
Level 16+
Teamfight positioning matters more than lane mechanics from this point.
- You're the primary win condition in teamfights — kiting and positioning decide the game.
- Focus them first in teamfights if you can reach them — they melt fast but hit hard if ignored.
