Please Tweek Orianna's E

Artificial·1/18/2015, 2:33:09 AM·79 votes·2,898 views

Whenever Ori's E's used a ring shows up around the ally who currently has the ball. If Ori's ally moves too far from Ori or vise versa, an Ori steps outside the ring the ball returns to her. This is a pretty cool design but it comes with a huge problem! The ally currently holding the ball cannot see the ring!!

Orianna: "Lee Sin I'ma give you the ball so you can engage a lil safer, but wait till E comes off cooldown. I'm sure I'ma need to shield you again." Lee Sin: "Okay." E's off cooldown, Lee Sin engages using Q Q. Ori use R... Ulting herself -_-'... Lee Sin dies, Ori's to blame...

Ori's E's beautiful but would work SO much better if the ally holding the ball could see that same guideline. Then they would see how far they can move away from Ori before the ball returns to her, then their plans wouldn't be ruined. Please, please, please, fix this. If Ori can see the ring, let also her ally see it.

This happens with me all the time xD Especially with Ori having slow movement speed and it is pretty strange that they implemented half of a great feature.

To think I almost overlooked this just because you didn't know how to spell "tweak." This is a great idea, and would be a fantastic QoL buff for ori and her allies.

That adds too much clarity. Clearly Riot will never do it.

Only one recommendation for you: please fix your spelling of the word "tweak". It's much easier to take you seriously if you don't make small mistakes like that.

But nitpicking aside, this sounds like a great QoL change for Orianna (not that she needs any help; Orianna is awesome :D ). It would make it simpler to coordinate with your teammates for a beautiful ult combo.

Just bumping this so that Riot remembers to support team plays/teamwork in this way also...

I play Orianna Orianna a lot and It would be nice if my teammate with the ball knew the range of it ^-^

Honestly, i don't know how they would script the ball's radius for other champions without it obscuring sight of a radius from an item they might be carrying (i.e. Hextech Sweeper) or ability they use (i.e. Twitch's W/E). A better idea might be the arrow over Orianna's head. Whatever champion the ball is on would also have the arrow and it would change color accordingly just like it does for Orianna herself. Might also be easier to script.

She doesn't need any buffs or increase to her usability.

Its your job to stay in range.....why is that so diffacult? Just bring ghost

Riot please care about us Orianna players, we believe this would be a great teamwork improvement. While you're at it you can also re-increase her auto attack range : ) (if you'd like, that is).

And for all you nitpickers out the word is Tweak not Tweek. Happy now?

just say you want more clarity with her E riot only cares about buzzwords now a days.

I have the same problem lol there should be some sort of signal that tells the player who currently has the ball that they're too far away... I know ori has an arrow that tells you how far the ball is, but there should be one for the person who currently has the ball.

I approve, commence changes

Hahaha, I've been there and people are always like "nice ult". In all fairness, this is a huge issue because I am pumped to get all 5 then BAM, ult my teammates to death. /gg It would make sense, good point.

I've had problems like this almost all the time however in some cases I ended up just out of range when intiators like Lee Sin go in and I end up having to use my flash just to get into position for the 5-man ult the arrow is nice to note but it can be frustrating sometimes if allies can't see that. Perhaps adding that feature that when an ally posesses the Ball show a marker indicating the distance to Orianna in which initators can know how far they can go.
