Talon vs Orianna

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Talon is a high-mobility assassin who wants to push the wave and roam to snowball.
Pressure Orianna early to deny her safe scaling and avoid giving her passive lane control.

Trading pattern

Start trades by landing W to apply bleed and threaten Q follow-up burst.
Punish Orianna when she uses Orianna Q recklessly or her ball is out of position.
Avoid trades when forced to stay visible or when Orianna's Orianna E shield is up.

Danger windows

Orianna's level 6 R creates a lethal all-in threat; play around its cooldown.
Be cautious when Orianna's ball is positioned aggressively with Orianna W slow zone.
Avoid trading when your Q dash is down, as you lose burst and mobility.

Early game

Use level 2 Q and W to pressure Orianna before she has mana and item power.
Avoid extended trades where Orianna's ball control zones you out.
Push the wave to enable roaming with E over terrain.

Power spikes

Talon's major spikes: level 2 Q+W pressure, level 6 R burst and stealth, and first lethality item.
Orianna's major spikes: level 6 Orianna R displacement and first mage item.
Respect Orianna R as a strong all-in and teamfight tool.

Win conditions

Push wave to roam and create pressure on other lanes using E.
Exploit Orianna's immobility and lack of hard CC by flanking and bursting her quickly.
Deny Orianna safe scaling by punishing her cooldowns and wave control early.

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