Ornn vs Sion

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize stable farming and durable trades to survive Sion's scaling and engage attempts.
Manage lane pressure carefully to avoid giving Sion free wave control or easy charged (Q) angles.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Ornn aims to neutralize lane and leverage superior teamfight engage.

Trading pattern

Trade around your (Q) terrain and (W) brittle to maximize your crowd control and damage.
Punish Sion after he misses charged (Q) or when his (W) shield is down by stepping forward for short trades.
Avoid using (E) without terrain or when (E) slow and (Q) knockup are available to punish you.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Sion has (R) available with a clear path; sidestep or break his engage angle before impact.
Respect charged (Q) knockup angles, especially from fog or brush, as they can lead to lethal trades.
Avoid extended fights before your tank item spike, as Sion's early damage and crowd control are stronger then.

Early game

Avoid extended duels early before your tank items, as Sion can punish you with charged (Q) and (E) slow.
Use (Q) to create terrain and set up safe (E) knockups only when you have an escape or terrain advantage.
Focus on farming safely and applying brittle with (W) for short trades rather than all-ins.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks your (R) long-range engage; use it with team follow-up or when Sion has limited dodge options.
Your first tank item spike increases durability, allowing you to absorb trades and focus on scaling.
Respect Sion's level 6 (R) engage and his health scaling from (W) stacks; maintain spacing to avoid his charged (Q) zones.

Win conditions

Neutralize Sion's lane pressure by using terrain and brittle trades to deny his charged (Q) setups.
Scale safely through item upgrades and use your (R) to start teamfights or pick off overextended targets.
Leverage your crowd control layering and tankiness to control front lines in teamfights and secure objectives.
