Orianna vs Renekton

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Orianna is a control mage with medium lane pressure who must manage ball placement to control the zone and create teamfight opportunities.
Focus on denying Renekton early lane pressure by avoiding all-in windows and using spacing to mitigate his burst trades.

Trading pattern

Use ball placement to zone and poke, then shield or speed yourself with (E) to survive return trades.
Punish Renekton after he uses both (E) dashes forward by stepping up for short trades.
Avoid trading when (Q) is on cooldown or before you have your first major item to reduce risk of being all-in'd.

Danger windows

Beware when Renekton has high fury and empowered (W) ready, as he can stun and burst quickly.
Respect (E) double dash for engage and disengage; avoid overextending when he has both dashes available.
Exercise caution post-level 6 when Renekton activates (R) for increased health and all-in threat; hold key defensive cooldowns.

Early game

Play cautiously before level 6, using (Q) and (W) to poke from a safe distance and avoid extended trades.
Use (E) shield proactively to absorb burst during Renekton's empowered (W) trades.
Avoid pushing the wave too hard early to prevent Renekton from easily engaging with (E) dash combos.

Power spikes

Respect Renekton's level 3 spike when he has (Q), (W), and both (E) casts for full burst trades; avoid extended fights then.
Use your level 6 (R) to create pick or defensive windows; track its availability to commit or reset safely.
After your first completed mage item, pressure waves and trades more confidently to leverage improved damage and control.

Win conditions

Control the lane through precise ball placement and wave management to deny Renekton's early all-in attempts.
Use your (R) ultimate to turn fights or disengage when Renekton commits, leveraging your teamfight scaling.
After your first item, increase pressure to force Renekton onto the back foot and open opportunities for roams or team objectives.
