View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Ornn Top vs Gwen Top in patch 15.18 (25.18), including win rates and pick rates. With proper study, this can improve your chances of victory up to 80.3% in this matchup.

Statistical Matchup Analysis

Ornn dominates the meta (21st most popular, 3.4% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Gwen (3.1% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of top lane's current powerhouses. Surprising upset: Despite Ornn's higher tier rating, Gwen wins 51.1% of encounters. This suggests Gwen's kit specifically counters Ornn's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Strong champion, tough matchup: Despite Ornn's impressive 52.8% overall win rate, this specific matchup against Gwen presents unique challenges requiring focused practice. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Grasp of the Undying + Demolish combination (51.3% win rate) plus optimal itemization Hollow Radiance, Jak'Sho, The Protean, Thornmail, and Mercury's Treads boosts your chances from 48.9% to 80.3% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Ornn's superior farming (6.67 vs 6.06/min, 23rd among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.61 CS/min natural advantage. Outclassed across the board: Gwen leads in both matchup win rate (51.1%) and damage (773 vs 701/min). Ornn must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Ornn maintains better KDA (2.40, 3rd place vs 56th for Gwen), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Gwen as Ornn (Top)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Ornn versus Gwen matchup in the top lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Ornn deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Gwen has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Ornn is higher farming statistics (ranked 23rd among role champions) (versus 43rd for Gwen), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.5 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Ornn Top versus Gwen Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Ornn player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Gwen player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

    Ornn tips:

    • Learning build paths of items can help quickly select upgrades in lane.
    • Volcanic Rupture can be used to set up zoning areas to threaten enemies.
    • The order of your abilties matters! Try to optimize Brittle usage.

    Playing Against Gwen

    • Gwen's Hallowed Mist shroud will only follow her once, after that it will dissipate when she leaves.
    • Gwen must hit something to recast her Ultimate, try to evade her between casts.
    • Gwen needs to attack a few times to set up her damage, so try to get the jump on her.
