Orianna vs Qiyana

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Orianna is a control mage with low early agency who must manage ball position to control Qiyana's threat zone.
Focus on denying Qiyana safe access to terrain and brush to limit her element and R impact.

Trading pattern

Trade by zoning with ball placement and poking, then shield or speed through return trades.
Punish Qiyana when she uses E without lethal threat or proper escape.
Respect Qiyana's element choice and avoid fighting near terrain or brush where her R can stun.

Danger windows

Respect Qiyana's R when near terrain or river as it can stun and burst.
Avoid all-ins if Qiyana has the correct element and E dash available.
Be wary when Qiyana's E is off cooldown and she has access to terrain for R impact.

Early game

Use Q and W to poke and keep Qiyana at range before she hits level 3 power spike.
Avoid extended trades early since Qiyana's E dash and element setup enable burst if she commits well.
Maintain ball position to shield against Qiyana's burst attempts and punish her E if used recklessly.

Power spikes

Orianna's level 6 R is a major teamfight and burst control spike.
First completed mage item significantly boosts Orianna's trading power.
Qiyana's level 3 unlock and level 6 R spike require cautious spacing and ball positioning.

Win conditions

Control the lane with ball placement to zone and poke, denying Qiyana terrain access.
Punish Qiyana's commitment mistakes like E without lethal threat to build lead.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to outscale and create teamfight opportunities with R crowd control.

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