  • Q - Command: Attack: Sends The Ball to target location, damaging enemies in its path
  • W - Command: Dissonance: Creates an electric field around The Ball that speeds up allies and slows enemies
  • E - Command: Protect: Shields an ally and grants bonus resistances while The Ball is attached
  • R - Command: Shockwave: Pulls and stuns nearby enemies toward The Ball's location

Key Features:

  • Control mage specializing in zone control and teamfight setup
  • Ball positioning is crucial for ability combos
  • Strong utility through shields and speed modifiers
  • Excels at creating engage opportunities

Ball Mechanics:

  • The Ball is central to all abilities
  • Returns to Orianna when she moves too far away
