I'd tell you, because learning a difficult matchup with my long time main (Garen) is exactly what I love doing in League, but everyone bans Ornn so I don't get the chance to figure it out.

Only tip I can offer right now is to do your absolute best to avoid the last damage tick of his fire breath. Keep in mind sometimes the fastest way out of it is to move behind him.

Another thing is that the last tick (at least to me) feels like it has more range than is indicated. Like even if you don't seem to be in the flames that last tick seems to still hit you regardless.

One of the buffs they made to him shortly after release was to increase his W range overall and additional range on the final bellow, they probably never increased it visually on the animation side of things to match the changes.

Buy early MR. And keep track of his W's cooldown and trade when it's off cooldown.

Hexdrinker can help, and other MR, like merc treads. Try to focus on CSing rather than going for kills or excessive harass. Play safe and try to outscale.
