Who Wins
- You lose early trades pre-6 due to Orianna's superior range and poke with Q-W, but the matchup becomes more skill-based post-6.
- Your R gives you better all-in potential and map presence, while her R provides stronger teamfight control.
How to Trade
- Look for short trades using E-Q combo when she uses Q to farm, then back off immediately to avoid her W-auto retaliation.
- Extended trades favor her due to her consistent damage output and shield from E.
Wave Control
- Push waves early to get priority for roams since you can't match her poke in lane.
- Focus on clearing waves quickly with E-Q spread and look for R plays to other lanes rather than trying to win the 1v1.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to all-in her post-6 without setting up the engage properly, as her R can easily interrupt your combo and turn the fight.
- Avoid standing in minion waves where her Q-W can hit both you and minions for maximum efficiency.
