Playing as Orianna

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Track your ball before each combo

    Keep an eye on your ball before every combo, because Command: Dissonance (W) and Command: Shockwave (R) come from it, not from you.

  2. Attack, then Dissonance

    Send your ball to your target with Command: Attack (Q), then cast Command: Dissonance (W), which damages and slows them and speeds up nearby allies.

  3. Autos on the same target

    Weave autos on the same target between spells: Clockwork Windup (passive) adds magic damage that grows with each auto on them.

  4. Ball on the ally who engages

    Attach your ball to the ally who engages with Command: Protect (E), which shields them, then cast Command: Shockwave (R) when they land in the middle of the enemies.

Playing against Viktor

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Leave his field before 1.25 seconds

    Get out of Gravity Field (W) right away: the zone slows, and an enemy who stays in it for 1.25 seconds is stunned.

  2. Engage after his Gravity Field

    If you can engage, go in after Gravity Field (W): it's his only stun, on a 17 to 13 second cooldown, and he has no dash.

  3. Play hard before his upgrades

    Get ahead early: for every 100 Hex Fragments he gets from kills, Glorious Evolution (passive) permanently upgrades one of his spells. His staff's glow shows how far along he is.

  4. Leave his storm fast

    Get out of Arcane Storm (R) fast: it hits every second and follows the champions it just damaged on its own.
