Tristana vs Orianna

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use early level 2 all-in windows with support follow-up to punish Orianna's immobility.
Convert wave crashes into turret plate damage by stacking (E) after winning trades or recalls.
Avoid passive wave pushes that expose you to Orianna's poke and shield setup.

Trading pattern

Engage trades by stacking (E) burst when (E) shield is down or ball is poorly positioned.
Jump (W) only with support CC ready and when Orianna's disengage cooldowns are spent.
Punish Orianna immediately if she uses (Q) recklessly or mispositions her ball.

Danger windows

Respect Orianna's level 6 (R) displacement, avoid committing without vision or support.
Avoid jumping forward into large minion waves where Orianna's poke and shield punish overcommit.
Beware of Orianna's ball position controlling your threat zone and limiting safe engage angles.

Early game

Push for level 2 with support to threaten all-ins before (Q) cooldown resets.
Thin waves to keep jump (W) safe and avoid overextending into Orianna's ball control.
Reset after winning trades to maximize turret pressure and deny Orianna farm.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (W) jump and (E) burst, enabling strong all-ins with support follow-up.
First completed marksman item boosts burst and turret pressure, increasing kill and plate-taking potential.
Late-game range and reset potential allow extended fights and snowballing through resets.

Win conditions

Force early all-ins around level 2 and 3 to snowball lane priority and turret plates.
Use wave crashes post-recall or kill to stack (E) and pressure Orianna under turret.
Leverage resets from kills to roam or secure mid-game objectives with your team.
