Orianna vs Talon

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Orianna is a control mage with medium lane pressure and low early agency against Talon.
Focus on controlling ball placement to zone Talon and prevent his roam opportunities.

Trading pattern

Trade by zoning with Q and W, then shield with E to mitigate Talon's burst.
Punish Talon when Talon Q is on cooldown to avoid his dash engage.
Avoid reckless ability use that leaves you vulnerable to Talon's all-in windows.

Danger windows

Talon's Talon R stealth and burst at level 6 is the biggest danger; keep safe and shield ready.
Talon's Talon Q dash is a threat when available; keep distance and ball positioned defensively.
Be cautious when Talon has Talon E terrain mobility ready for roams or flank angles.

Early game

Use your ranged poke to punish Talon's weaker waveclear and keep him farming under turret.
Avoid extended trades early as Talon’s Talon Q dash and Talon W slow can set up all-ins.
Maintain ball position near yourself to shield and speed through his burst attempts.

Power spikes

Orianna's major spikes are level 6 R and first completed mage item.
Respect Talon's level 2 Talon Q plus W pressure and level 6 Talon R stealth burst.
Talon's lethality item spike increases his kill threat; play around these timings.

Win conditions

Control the lane with precise ball placement to zone Talon and deny his roam pressure.
Punish Talon’s cooldowns, especially Talon Q, to chip away health and force resets.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to leverage your R for teamfights and secure lane control.

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