Vantagem contra

Thamuz

Terizla

Aurora counters heroes who like to charge in, such as Leomord, Thamuz, and Terizla, since her skills can stop them dead in their tracks.

Cuidado contra

Kadita

Guinevere

Because most of Aurora's skills have delayed effects, she is countered by high mobility heroes who can dodge them with ease, such as Ling, Kadita, and Guinevere.

LANE TIPS

General lane advice, not professional player guides. Source item and ability descriptions may be in English.

1
In mid, clear the wave before rotating; follow your jungler without losing lane experience.
2
Adapt the remaining build slots to enemy damage and healing; do not buy the same items every match.
3
Before engaging, check which enemies are visible on the minimap and wait for key crowd-control abilities to be used.
