Neeko vs Orianna

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Neeko should use her disguise and minion-enhanced E to pressure Orianna and deny her safe scaling.
Apply high lane pressure to prevent Orianna from comfortably controlling the wave with her ball and abilities.

Trading pattern

Fish for empowered E angles through minions and punish Orianna when her Orianna Q is on cooldown.
Follow rooted Orianna with Q burst and consider all-in with R if Orianna is grouped or out of position.
Avoid trading when Orianna's Orianna E shield or Orianna R displacement is available to reduce risk.

Danger windows

Orianna's Orianna R displacement creates danger when Neeko is grouped or caught without escape.
Neeko is vulnerable if she misses E or uses R when Orianna can easily disengage.
When Neeko's disguise and W clone are tracked, Orianna can better respect and punish her engages.

Early game

Use E through minions early to threaten roots and follow up with Q burst before Orianna can react.
Avoid extended trades if E misses or Orianna's Orianna E shield is active.
Use W clone and passive disguise to confuse Orianna and create windows for aggression.

Power spikes

Neeko's level 6 R provides strong all-in and teamfight threat to punish Orianna's immobility.
First completed AP burst item enhances Neeko's kill pressure before Orianna scales fully.
Respect Orianna's level 6 Orianna R as a major teamfight and displacement threat.

Win conditions

Use disguise, minion-angled E roots, and R threat to create picks or force Orianna out of lane control.
Deny Orianna safe farming by pressuring with E and Q poke to delay her scaling.
Leverage level 6 power spike to all-in Orianna before she can respond with Orianna R or Orianna E shield.
