PSA: THEY CHANGED ORNN

Zero Shingetsu·Jul 24, 2019·2 votes·2,182 views

This happened some time ago but a lot of people still don't know, so I want to address it for any who might still be unaware, since I often have to explain it ingame where I don't have as much time to do so.

Ornn's passive has changed. Now he can make Masterwork items for himself from level 13. From 14 on, he can upgrade one item per level for allies, and only one item per ally total. In other words at level 14, he can upgrade an item for someone. At 15, he can do it for someone else. At 16, he can do it for someone else. And at 17, he can do it for the last teammate.

So remind your Ornn at 14, and if you don't get one sooner, please don't think he's snubbing you!

he is supposed to be balanced but he is no longer unique from the other tanks i had more fun with ornn when he had 36% win rate than with him now that he has 50% win rate

i had 65% win rate with ornn when he came out

now i just feel like im like any other tank that is barely not a burden by existing in the game

You mean when he had his busted spammy shield that auto won every trade every 5-7 odd seconds?

Lmao. Of course you’d want that free win Ornn back.

yes the time where he couldn't win lane but had ways of staying in fights on his own

Except he literally won every lane ever?

He had no lanes he outright lost, and he won every mid game.

Where as tk pre nerf had no lane he lost, but no mid game he won.

that 36% win rate spoke otherwise

Until you hit tournament play where he literally solo carried the game.

Even "release broken zoe" was only good in pro play at the time specifically because ornn got her free triples to KS.

ornn wasn't picked in pro play until he was widely considered op and he was widely considered OP after his W was changed from current% to Max %

im pretty sure i know the history of the champion better than you don't argue

Not quite..... It's just at level 13 (if he gets there) he suddenly becomes superman.

Ornn now has the Kayle complex. Useless most of the game. Then at level 13 can tank 5 man teams.

I played him yesterday. I made the mistake to go help a level 1 invade team. Got back to lane. Got BURIED by a Cho Gath. No ganks. no nothing from team.

I recall at one point, I was 19 Cs vs 72 CS. THAT DIFFERENT. But because I was in lane that whole time, I still got my levels.

At level 14 I just snowballed the game. I was able to break out, steal some jungle from my jungler, and once I had 2-3 items I just face tanked the entire other team, and we won.

He's no longer a skill champ.

He's fine as a jungler. He has polarized top lane though.
