Aurelion Sol in 10.4

Anyone play Aurelion Sol in patch 10.4? I love to play this champion even after Riot decided to turn him into a burst mage. Unfortunately, with the recent nerf Sol got in 10.4, I feel like he's now basically unplayable. He's extremely weak and does no damage at all now. Prior to 10.4, Sol's early game was still I feel kind of weak, but he did pretty well late game. However, in the recent games I have played, sol cannot do too much even in late game. I am very frustrated with these changes. Any other opinions?

He was always slightly bad in lategame, even before the W rework. His goal is to roam and snowball other lanes, then win objectives in midgame with powerful teamfighting and snowballed allies His damage is actually nice even now. For Sol player, taking down 30-40% of enemy hp in a single W feels weak, but not for enemy hit. If he is a bit ahead, he can still oneshot a squishy enemy with his full combo

I think it’s better to go back to the liandry’s + Pen build. With the W nerf, that’ll end up dealing more damage in the end. Still a rough late game though.

The nerf didn't affect him all that much really. I know how you're feeling. I choose to play Sol in the jungle mostly, that way with smart pathing and the like I'm able to farm up and get my damage spikes without worrying. The rework is rough, should never have gone through.
