Read from Senna's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Janna.
This is Senna's own plan; across 7,813 pooled games the lane is leaning Senna.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Senna | Level 1 favors you — your Q poke and range beat Janna's shield-only laning. |
| Level 2 | Senna | Level 2 favors you — a second Q plus autos out-trades a support with no return damage. |
| Level 3 | Senna | Level 3 favors you — Janna still can't answer your poke and you deny her ADC farm. |
| Levels 4-5 | Senna | Levels 4-5 favor you — your soul ramp keeps zoning her while she only shields and slows. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even — Monsoon erases your all-ins and full-heals her ADC. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item is even — her shield power and ult let her peel a committed engage. |
| Two+ items | Senna | Two-plus items favor you — soul damage out-scales a pure enchanter and your global R adds pick threat. |
Levels 1-4 are clean Senna favor: Janna is a disengage enchanter with no lane pressure, so your Q out-pokes her and your auto range zones her carry off farm. Push the tempo, deny CS, and build your soul lead while she can only shield and slow. Her disengage answers a root that starts in the open, so throw yours from the brush instead. Collect souls steadily while she holds position, heal your carry through the chip, and let the range you accumulate rather than a poke exchange decide who controls the wave.
