People have got Aurelion Sol all wrong
So, one of the perennial lore discussion topics is the true size of Aurelion Sol. When he was first revealed to us, trailer footage showed him crushing a star in the palm of his hand, and images showed his face filling the whole sky. This initially led people to think he was the size of a planet, or a star system or even a galaxy. For instance, one user calculated his length to be 16.4 million miles: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/vVyJObqE-aurelion-sols-size-with-calculations
However, it's reasonable to assume that Sol's portrayal in the initial trailer and images was just artistic license to hype him up. If he was really bigger than Runeterra, he wouldn't be able to enter Runeterra's atmosphere and visit Mount Targon as he does in the lore.
Last week, someone started a thread in which he calculated Sol's true size from his splash art. From his calculations, he estimated that Sol's upper body is over 1 mile high: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/8kVMWtEb-aurelion-sol-is-massive-but-not-as-massive-as-you-think
However, I think that even this estimate is too big. The calculation is based on splash art, but let's not forget that splash art often take huge creative liberties because it's supposed to be impressionistic rather than realistic. A better measure of Sol's size would be found in his color story. And in that story there is a key line. In the third paragraph, Sol describes the Shuriman Sun Disc as "massive".
Now the word "massive" is usually reserved for objects that are larger than oneself, and Sol, being as arrogant as he is, would probably only use the word "massive" in such a scenario. So it is highly likely that the Sun Disc is much bigger than Sol.
But how big is the Sun Disc? Well, you can see for yourself:
As you can see, the Sun Disc is big, but it doesn't look like it's over 1 mile in diameter. It looks more like the size of a fort. Yet, apparently, it still dwarfs Sol for him to call it massive.
Given all the other details, such as the fact that humans have difficulty discerning Sol's form when he is flying (so he must appear quite small to them), it seems reasonable to conclude that Sol is probably much smaller than he appears in his early promo art, and is closer in size to, say, a jumbo jet, like in this awesome fan art:

This would mean that if scaled correctly in the game, Sol would probably only be around double his current in-game size. Any thoughts welcome.
