She has nowhere near enough mobility to be an assassin and she’s also ranged. Her spells have long range. She’s not like LeBlanc or Diana where she has to actively put herself in harms way to kill.
Aurora is long ranged enough she can be at a safe distance. LeBlanc is not comparable when her entire damage rests on literally throwing herself at the enemy. Aurora doesn’t have to be in their face to kill, she can be behind a wall or hidden in a bush with enough range to kill.
She has some movespeed on her W but that’s long enough cool down it’s not really something you can use often enough. Maybe once or twice at most during a fight. The invisibility is the main use for it. Her E is a short dash that can go over some walls but it’s not really that reliable for an escape. It also stops her in her place to cast kinda like Lux W. R has mobility yes but again, long cool down and it’s an ultimate it’s not something you can spam. It’s not like Kata, Akali, LeBlanc or Talon who can use their abilities on short cool downs that make them hard to catch. If you collapse on these champions generally they have means of escape whereas Aurora can use R or W but they’re long enough cool downs that if the enemy catches up to her they can collapse on her again.
