Vladimir vs Orianna

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Vladimir faces a low-pressure lane but must manage Orianna's ball control to avoid poke and zone pressure.
Focus on surviving the early lane with Q sustain and avoid giving Orianna free control or passive scaling.

Trading pattern

Take short trades around empowered Q and use W only to avoid Orianna R or heavy poke.
Punish Orianna if she uses abilities recklessly or when Orianna Q is on cooldown.
Respect Orianna's ball position and Orianna E shield to avoid unfavorable trades.

Danger windows

Be cautious when W is on cooldown as Vladimir is vulnerable to Orianna's poke and Orianna R.
Avoid extended fights before empowered Q is ready, as Vladimir's short trade threat is lower.
Orianna R creates a high-risk window; save W to deny its impact or disengage.

Early game

Use Q to sustain through Orianna's poke and avoid committing W early to save it for key threats.
Avoid fighting early waves where Orianna's ball placement can punish your approach.
Prioritize farming safely until empowered Q and item spikes increase your threat.

Power spikes

Vladimir's major spikes are level 6 R and first completed AP item for burst and sustain.
Orianna's major spikes are level 6 Orianna R and first mage item, increasing her control and burst.
Respect Orianna R as a key danger ability that can turn trades or teamfights.

Win conditions

Survive early lane by using Q sustain and avoid forced W usage to reach empowered Q trades.
Scale into mid-game with AP items and use R to amplify damage on grouped targets.
Punish Orianna's immobility and lack of escape by flanking or engaging when W is available and empowered Q is ready.

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