Learn how to Orianna counter with these essential tips.

All
Track Orianna's Ball and stay on the side of the lane it's not on — it takes time for the Ball to reposition, so putting distance between yourself and it limits how much of her kit can threaten you.
Basic Lane Phase
Spread out during team fights — Orianna's R pulls and stuns everyone grouped around the Ball, so staying spaced out prevents one cast from locking down your whole team.
Team Fight
Watch for the Ball attaching to an enemy frontliner moving toward your team — this usually means Orianna just used her E to shield them for a dive, so be ready to disengage.
Team Fight Late Game
Call for jungle pressure when Orianna pushes the wave — she has no dashes or blinks in her kit, making her one of the easiest mid laners to gank when overextended.
Lane Phase
Look to engage right after Orianna uses her E — it has a moderate cooldown, and while it's down she loses the shield and bonus resistances that help her survive a trade.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Avoid roaming unless Orianna has recalled — her Q and W give her strong waveclear, letting her push the lane and take plates uncontested while you're away.
Lane Phase
Listen for the Ball's impact sound when Orianna's Q or E lands on a target — it carries through fog of war, giving you a cue to her actions even without vision.
Advanced Lane Phase Skirmish
Orianna's kill pressure jumps once she hits level 6 — her R adds a stun and pull to any trade, so play more cautiously once she reaches that point.
