Ohhh Karma... I love you a lot, honey... but I think I might have found my new AP/Support girl.

Don't +Rep me at all. I like my obscurity. Thank you.

Recently, Riot liked boosting standard attacks as they are being used... coincidence?

How is she usability wise? She looking UP/OP/Balanced? I'd hate for her to be Karma 2.0... she looks interesting.

I watched HSGG's stream a bit ago, but I raged when he blamed his team for his 1/4 score - then moving straight onto "I'm 1 and 2 in the world so I'm better than you". He also purposefully fed a level 9 Kass as level 4 because he didn't get mid or something...

Clearly he's not the best source of information about her...

She looks fun to play though, anyhow!

i can't say for sure since i've only used her in bot games for pre-practice.

So far I find she's somewhat weak(low damage output) during early laning phase and should be played more passively until at least lvl 3 or 4 when you can get all her skills. However once you max out "attack". It's low CD and mana cost makes the ball a powerful weapon in conjunction with her other skills and auto-attack. However this means she has a relatively high APM and you need to have a somewhat split attention between orianna and the ball.

She was only 4800 IP for me on US server.

Also, she wasn't that powerful early game as was stated above. However, she had awesome harass ability. I was put into mid lane with a Miss Fortune and I kept her back and always low on health. In that game I was 7/1/15 and complimented on my skills with the new Champ. Death came late game when whole team decided they should finally kill me, almost didn't though. =P

As far as I can tell however, she isn't OP at all. If anything she could use a slight boost for early game but other than that she seems perfect. The ball makes for some interesting gameplay and she takes a bit of skill to use. She's really great in big team fights with her Ulti as well.

She is pretty awesome, but I think more support than anything else. She just doesn't deal enough damage until really late game to be a carry of any sorts.

First game with her I got 43 assists :3

What I really love about her is that you can attach the ball to an ally, and then cast from that ally. So, if an ally is dying and getting chased, all you gotta do is ball them up, they get shield and MRes and Armor, click w, and then they are sped up significantly and anyone who travels in their path is slowed significantly.

And ult if need be to ensure they don't keep chasing :)

Thanks to TRUeLM, Plastictree, Scrax, Xiaowiriamu, foggy12, JahGFX, jhoijhoi, msrobinson, JEFFY40HANDS, Nyoike, MissMaw, and me :) for the sigs!

lol no one has a high APM in this game (highest are maybe cassiopeia or nidalee).

It's all relative.

I just think that Orianna has a higher APM then most other champions. Plus you need a damn good battle awareness/sense or else you can easily lose track of her or the ball, especially in large battles with too much going on at once.
