How to Beat Ahri as Aurora (Mid)

While statistically Aurora is slightly stronger than Ahri in the mid lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Aurora deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Ahri has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Ahri, ranking 31st (versus 47th for Aurora) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly.

Key aspects of the Aurora Mid versus Ahri Mid matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Aurora player to maintain constant pressure on Ahri, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
