Hwei vs Orianna

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Hwei is a high agency artillery mage who must control space with long-range poke and E spellbook CC to pressure Orianna's immobile playstyle.
Apply consistent lane pressure to deny Orianna her preferred passive scaling and ball control setup.

Trading pattern

Trade by zoning with Q and W poke and use E spellbook CC to disrupt Orianna's ball positioning.
Respect Orianna E shield and Orianna R displacement; avoid committing when these are available.
Force Orianna into unfavorable trades by dodging Orianna Q and punishing her cooldowns.

Danger windows

Respect Orianna R shockwave as a lethal all-in or teamfight threat.
Be cautious when Orianna's Orianna E shield is up, as it reduces your poke effectiveness.
Avoid trading if you have chosen the wrong E spellbook for the moment; this opens you to punishment.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to unlock all spellbooks and maximize poke and defensive options against Orianna's limited early agency.
Punish Orianna's longer Orianna Q cooldown by trading aggressively when it's down.
Avoid fast all-ins; hold the correct E spell to counter Orianna's engages or shield timing.

Power spikes

Hwei's level 3 unlocks full spellbook options for poke, control, and shielding.
Hwei's level 6 R enables strong all-in potential with crowd control.
Orianna's level 6 R is a major danger spike to respect in fights.

Win conditions

Use long-range poke and E spellbook CC to control Orianna's ball placement and pressure her early.
Punish Orianna's cooldown windows, especially before level 6 and when Orianna Q is down.
Set up level 6 all-ins with R after controlling lane space and disrupting Orianna's shield and ball positioning.

Tip: For Hwei vs Orianna, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
