r/Aurelion_Sol_mains

New Aurelion Sol player in Silver. I noticed I do not change my build at all in my games. The only thing that changes is the *order* of the items I build but I lack this flexibility and knowledge to know when to buy this item, when not to, etc.

I always rush Rylai, boots, Liandry's. Then it's either Bloodletter or Zhonya. Then it's the other one. Then it's Rabadon.

My understanding is that Asol benefits more from AP bruiser items than pure AP items so this is the reasoning behind my build. The only thing I'd change depending on the matchup is my summoner's spell. If I'm getting absolutely shred I may take barrier, otherwise it's TP.

Im not smurfing, im a mid main and Im still doing good on this pick, might be some room for more optimization, but I swear, if you can survive the early invades, it’s actually super decent and has insane 1v9 potential.

I’ve been looking at the stats on LoLalytics, and Movement Speed seems to have a higher win rate in Diamond+ (55% vs 52% for Adaptive Force), but the sample size is much smaller (around 3k games vs 30k). Adaptive Force feels really good for early-game scaling and waveclear, especially for getting your push and stacks going, but I’m wondering if the extra Movement Speed becomes more valuable later on for kiting, roaming and positioning. What do you guys think is actually better on Aurelion Sol, and why?
