Renekton vs Orianna

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Renekton should leverage his early lane pressure and high agency to deny Orianna a calm scaling mid-lane.
Prioritize aggressive short trades with fury to disrupt Orianna's ball control and prevent her from safely farming and setting up teamfights.

Trading pattern

Trade explosively with full fury using (E) dash in, empowered (W) stun, (Q) heal, and exit with second (E) dash.
Punish Orianna when her (Q) is on cooldown or when she mispositions her ball, as her threat zone shrinks.
Avoid trading without second (E) available to ensure a safe disengage from her poke and shield.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (R) is available, as her displacement can disrupt your all-ins.
Avoid using both (E) dashes forward without a clear kill or escape path to prevent being locked down or punished.
Watch for jungle ganks when pushing aggressively; use wave crashes and resets to reduce vulnerability.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to stack fury and execute quick (E)+(W) empowered trades before Orianna reaches key cooldowns.
Avoid extended fights without fury or second (E) cast to prevent being punished by Orianna's shields and poke.
Maintain wave control to keep Orianna under pressure and limit her ability to safely position her ball.

Power spikes

At level 3, use full (Q), (W), (E) combo with fury for strong burst trades; punish Orianna's longer (Q) cooldown.
At level 6, activate (R) for increased durability and damage to convert short trades into all-ins or dives.
Respect Orianna's level 6 (R) displacement; avoid committing fully when her ultimate is up unless you have a clear advantage.

Win conditions

Snowball early by controlling the wave and forcing empowered (W) trades to chip Orianna before level 6.
Use (R) after chipping Orianna's health to force decisive all-ins or dives under tower plates.
Deny Orianna safe scaling by maintaining lane pressure and punishing her immobility and reliance on ball position.
