Taliyah vs Orianna

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Taliyah controls mid by punishing Orianna's immobility and reliance on ball position for threat.
Maintain medium lane pressure to deny Orianna safe scaling and force her to use Orianna E defensively.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts with Q, then threaten with W to shove Orianna into E for a punish.
Exploit Orianna's longer Q cooldown by engaging when it's down.
Avoid extended trades if W and E are on cooldown or Orianna's Orianna E shield is active.

Danger windows

When W and E are down, Taliyah is vulnerable to Orianna's poke and shielded trades.
Orianna's R can displace and punish Taliyah if caught in close range.
Avoid overextending without vision as Orianna can capitalize on her immobility with jungle pressure.

Early game

Use Q to poke and shape the wave early, avoiding extended trades before level 3.
Hold W and E to punish Orianna's forward movement or mistakes in ball positioning.
Pressure Orianna before she gains enough mana and AP to shield and trade effectively.

Power spikes

Level 6 R grants strong map pressure and roam potential for Taliyah.
First completed mage item improves Taliyah's poke and wave control.
Respect Orianna's level 6 R for displacement and teamfight impact.

Win conditions

Control mid wave with Q and punish Orianna's predictable movement through E and W.
Use wave pushes to create roam opportunities with R and pressure side lanes or river.
Deny Orianna calm scaling by forcing her to use Orianna E defensively and punishing cooldown windows.

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