(Homeland) - Aurelion Sol has proven his strength at the highest professional arena, LPL.
Since the rework by Riot until now, Aurelion Sol has been following the footsteps of many '200-year experience' champions like Viego or Zeri. Specifically, Aurelion Sol has undergone continuous adjustments as well as fluctuations in power. However, this champion still demonstrates an outstanding superiority that if operated well, teams with Aurelion Sol can easily destroy any opponents.
Most notably, recently, when the Star Forger had the opportunity to appear at LPL Spring 2023, in the match between FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) and Edward Gaming. In the first game, the team nicknamed the Phoenix used Aurelion Sol in the Mid Lane position. It is noteworthy the results they obtained were beyond the imagination of both the audience and the professional community.
Specifically, throughout the game, Aurelion Sol only went down once, securing 15 takedowns along with 10 assists. By the score, FPX obtained a total of 25 takedowns. This proves: Aurelion Sol participated in all takedowns obtained by FPX. It should be noted, FPX's player Care (the one using Aurelion Sol) is just a young talent while Fofo is experienced. Even the commentators were surprised by Aurelion Sol's strength.
Right after the rework, this champion has already caused many controversial opinions in the League of Legends community (LMHT). According to many evaluations, Aurelion Sol is particularly powerful from mid to late game. Moreover, this champion is even considered a 'tank' as he is both sturdy and has strong attacking abilities.
After the performance in LPL, many viewers are also concerned that Aurelion Sol will continue to dominate in other regions. If this champion falls into the hands of world-class Mid Laners like Faker or ShowMaker, Chovy..., it may further trouble Riot. Moreover, the playoffs of the Spring 2023 season and MSI are approaching rapidly. No fan wants matches to be ruined just because of Riot's '200 years of game-making experience.'
