Ornn vs Gragas

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Ornn aims for a stable lane focusing on safe brittle trades and terrain setups to control Gragas's engage potential.
Prioritize scaling through durable trades and item upgrades while avoiding early duels where Gragas's burst and sustain threaten you.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Ornn must manage lane pressure to reach impactful teamfights.

Trading pattern

Trade around (Q) terrain and (W) brittle application to maximize your crowd control and damage.
Punish Gragas after he misses (E), as he loses both engage and escape tools.
Use (E) knockup only when you have terrain or a clear escape, avoiding risky all-ins before durability spikes.

Danger windows

Gragas is dangerous when (E) is up and can stun you from fog or short range; maintain spacing to avoid surprise engages.
His (R) displacement can interrupt your engage or knock you into his team; respect angles and avoid clustering.
Early levels before your tank item are risky; avoid extended fights where Gragas's burst and sustain dominate.

Early game

Avoid extended trades before your first tank item, as Gragas's burst and sustain can punish you.
Use (Q) to create terrain for safe (E) knockups and control the wave without overcommitting.
Respect (E) stun threat by not dashing into him without terrain or an escape plan.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks your (R) long-range engage; use it with team follow-up or when Gragas lacks space to dodge the second cast.
Your first tank item spike lets you absorb trades and focus on stable brittle trades rather than forced kills.
Respect Gragas's level 6 (R) displacement; avoid committing when it's available and punish cooldowns.

Win conditions

Neutralize Gragas's lane pressure with durable trades and terrain setups to safely scale into teamfights.
Use your (R) to start fights or create picks when your team is ready to follow up.
Focus on reaching item upgrades and teamfight engage windows where your layered crowd control outvalues Gragas's burst.
