Read from Ornn's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Vayne.
This is Ornn's own plan; across 2,716 pooled games the lane is leaning Ornn.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Vayne | You have no shield, no combo and no mana at level 1 — Vayne's Tumble-empowered autos and Silver Bolts procs poke you freely while you just farm. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Still no kit online for you, but she lacks her own all-in, so the lane is a low-stakes trade of her chip for your farm. |
| Level 3 | Ornn | Bellows Breath comes up on a 12s cooldown — the Brittle it applies finally lets your autos trade back through her Tumble kite. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ornn | A second combo point lets you E into your Q magma pillar to knock her up and punish any forward tumble before she can reposition. |
| Level 6 | Ornn | R's double knock-up chained into E-Q is CC she can't tumble or condemn through, and Brittle amps your auto burst — you own the 6 all-in. |
| First item | Ornn | Your first tank-health item makes you a durable W-poke bully who tanks her trades while she's still scaling toward her spike. |
| Two+ items | Vayne | Vayne's Silver Bolts percent-max-HP true damage ignores your armor stacking and her tumble invis kites your telegraphed E-Q — she reclaims the late duel. |
Levels 1-2 are hers and there's nothing to fight about — you have no shield, no combo and you're mana-starved, so just last-hit and eat the chip from her tumble-empowered autos and third-bolt procs. Don't walk up to throw a Q she can simply tumble; farm with the tip of it. Everything changes at 3: once W (Bellows Breath) is up its unstoppable percent-HP exhale and shield let you trade back through her kite — but only when you can actually connect.
