An Orianna Basic Guide for AP Mage Players
Provides tips on Orianna runes, item builds, skill usage, and laning against Ahri. For runes, choose Summon Aery, Arcane Comet, or Bone Plating depending on the matchup. Item builds should be flexible based on the situation. Skill maxing typically involves two points in W, then maxing Q, followed by maxing W. In lane, get in the habit of positioning your ball in front of you for easier kiting.
1. Orianna Runes, Item Builds, and Skill Maxing Guide
Runes:
- Basically, if you need mana management, choose Biscuit Delivery; Summon Aery against melee champions; Arcane Comet against long-range mages.
- Choose Bone Plating against champions like Sylas or Katarina.
Item Builds:
- Start with Doran's Ring, then choose items like Luden's Tempest, Archangel's Staff, or Liandry's Anguish depending on the enemy team composition.
- Consider Abyssal Mask if the enemy team has a lot of AP champions.
- If they have high magic resistance, choose Void Staff, and consider Zhonya's Hourglass or Rabadon's Deathcap.
Boots:
- Choose Ionian Boots of Lucidity for cooldown reduction, Sorcerer's Shoes for magic penetration, or Mercury's Treads if they have a lot of CC.
- Consider Boots of Swiftness if you want more mobility.
Skill Maxing:
- Two points in W, then max Q, followed by maxing W is typical, but against melee champions, you can put three points in W first and then max Q.

3. Orianna vs. Ahri Laning Practical Guide and Game Management
Laning against Ahri:
- Ahri takes W at level 1 and uses Electrocute, so it's important to take Bone Plating to reduce damage.
- It's important to take lane control early.
- Choose an item build of Luden's Tempest into Archangel's Staff depending on the enemy team composition.
Lane Management and Gameplay:
- Leave about two minions and maintain the lane near your tower, requesting ganks from your jungler.
- When pushing the lane, it's important to know the enemy jungler's location and ward to secure vision.
- You are vulnerable to ganks, so always play carefully.
- If you lack damage, use the Sorcery rune to supplement your damage.
