Nono not aimed at you, i was saying this in general, if people want to pick the other type of build which i didn't state here it's their own choice.

Very good guide. A lot of people dont realize that Orianna is a great AP carry if not the best at the moment. I have no idea why people think she is a support character ( just cuz of the shield??)

The first build is more of an "I want to be sure i won't die (or at least not often)".
I agree zhonya's is an irregular choice but it helps out very often for the people still practicing her but having enough skill to use actives on items in time.

I don't really think the full auto attack type of build does her much good since she is not beefy enough on herself to withstand a decent beating.
You will need 1 or 2 tanking items + rylai's and rod of ages in order to make the auto build work properly and because of that the damage will be rather low.

Suit yourself though but i think that even if you would go an ad build like the ones used for ashe/caitlynn/tryndamere on orianna would deal more damage then the malady+nashor type of build.

Zhonya's Hourglass should be a last resort item for Orianna... Like literally, almost past situational. As in, "I don't know how I am dying so fast every fight, so I'll work on a Zhonya's."

Everything else seems good.

Morello's Evil Tome > Nashor's Tooth for this build. Mainly for 3 reasons:
1. Better AP
2. Better Mp5
3. Auto-attacking with Orianna is not the focus of this build

*The only thing that Nashor's Tooth has over Morello's is the CDR, which as many people have already pointed out, is not exactly Orianna's weak spot.

It seems like a few people have not had the greatest success with Rod of Ages? I must say, I ALWAYS build my Orianna with Catalyst first, making Rod of Ages the logical transition. On top of that, it's really not that bad of an item. It gives +80 AP, +630 Health, and +725 Mana over a fairly short time (which is why you buy the rod so early). On top of the amazing stats it gives, it keeps the Catalyst passive that triggers after each level. Basically, what its allowing you to do is focus on more powerful items for better damage output, sustain, and support. The Tear of the Goddess is truely a great Mana item, but it just doesn't offer Health regen. So I think if you are not solo laning and you have like an Alistar, Kayle, Sona, etc... in your lane, than sure, the tear would allow you to spam a little more than the Catalyst.

I'm surprised you didn't mention a Nashor's Tooth, compared to Morello's, it has better CDR, and comparable AP and Mana Regen, whilst giving you a nice AS buff to suit your passive, allowing you to proc the third hit faster and more continuously, and to be able to kill turrets nice and fast, because of how damage to turrets is based on AP as well, the AS really comes in handy.

Forgot to mention why I don't run the CDR runes... I run Ionian Boots. However I want to test out Sorc Shoes on her and when I do I will run CDR blues.

Thanks :3.


I tried a similar build and i feel like she's too squishy if built with those items.

The damage sure is high but the lack of an instant escape (except for Flash, whis is a must for her) is incompatible with the whole build (got shut down first in most of the late game ganks while i had a great middle early game against an Ashe)

I'm not saying this is not a good build..it's just that i think she's not useful if built full AP (even with Zhonya...50 Armor are not enough for her, unlike Rumble XD)


Full ap? not really, there is a reason i state rod of ages in that normal build aswell, also if you look at the optional you see items such as rylai's crystal scepter, quicksilver sash and banshee's veil, the main builds i gave are 4 items so it leaves room for 2 tanky items (total of 4 with roa and zhonya included) or in case of you going good more ap items which means you don't need more tanky items.


This is similar to how I run her. Items wise that is. I skill her up different (Q & W first, E last) . And I don't use CDR runes. I use a split of AP runes (flat or per lvl - testing both) and Mp5/lvl. Between my runes and RoA I rarely have mana problems.


As for the cdr runes, i just like it as it allows other skills more quickly (since Q is 2-3 second cd either way with and without the cdr runes and i like my W, E, R more quickly) though it's a matter of prefference.
