the Aurelion Sol buff we desperately need.

Make it so we can toggle sunglasses with Ctrl + 5.

On a serious note, hitting every single ability, every star, positioning perfectly, acivating corrupting potion for extra damage...and still getting out-traded by Syndra Q, Ahri Q or Zoe Q... :(

His single-target burst is lower than a single-target burst mage. Shocker

ASol is a scaling battlemage. He's supposed to lose a 1v1 trade because he can inflict his combo on an entire team.

That is not the point. The point is, someone who played a trade incredibly badly still comes out on top, while missing every ability and tanking minions, when I had a corrupting pot ticking, and hit every single star as well as my q. Doesn't matter if hes a scaling battlemage. it still isnt right.

He needs to be revamped in general. He is too squishy, low damage, low mobility(E can't be used in combat lol....) and isn't really that great with full build.

It's not like my current main(Viktor) where you can literally feel the power increase via upgrades. But still be a balanced champion and not overpowered.

Sol feels so weak and underpowered right now. Worse than ever before.Problem is, his rework removed nearly all the counterplay Sol had, engage and hard cc. With all his movement speed buffs even if you get on top of him he'll just run away. What the rework accomplished: Increasing his pickrate at first (and then decerasing it so it's even lower than pre-rework), making more than half of his old mains quit the champ and in many cases the game, removing all counterplay from the champion, and removing all fun in the champion. While the Teemo and Wukong reworks have had tons of time on pbe, have had lots of communication between rioters and players, Sol's rework was plopped on pbe, they didn't listen to ANY feedback, and he was on the pbe for like 2 weeks before instantly shipping to live, and the only change they made was nerfing his E cooldown which was busted. Riot just hates this champion.

Oh believe me I am aware of the state of sol, and I feel your pain.

From what I understand, I will put this in a more metaphorical way. Basically every champion has a wallet full of "money". The way it works is, each ability including passive(s), cost "money" to be a thing. So naturally, your Q may be the cheapest cost, and your R cost the most. In aurelion sol's case, his E cost him MORE than his own R, Q, and W combined. Basically it is seen as the "big cost" of his abilities and giving him more is tantamount to saying he needs a bigger wallet. Does that make sense? Basically unless E finally goes(which it should), he won't get any real meaningful buffs.
