Wild Rift Ornn mains – what are actually his best items? Is Sunfire as bad on Ornn as it is on PC?

Hey, I’ve recently started OTPing Ornn in Wild Rift and I’m trying to understand his itemization properly instead of just blindly copying the recommended builds.

What do you guys consider his best/core items in Wild Rift right now?

I’m especially curious about Sunfire Aegis. From what I’ve seen in PC League discussions, a lot of Ornn players don’t seem to value Sunfire very highly. Is it also mediocre on Ornn in Wild Rift, or is the WR version actually worth building?

I’m mainly looking for a good balance between maximum tankiness and still dealing meaningful damage.

How do you rate things like Heartsteel, Sunfire, Searing Crown, Amaranth’s Twinguard, Thornmail, Randuin’s, Force of Nature, etc.?

Do you have a general core build, or do you basically itemize completely differently every game depending on the enemy comp?

Would especially love to hear from high-elo Ornn players/OTPs and why you prefer certain items.

How to carry as Ornn

Hi guys,

I'm mastery level 50+ with Ornn. But I struggle to carry compared to champions (that I play) like Ekko, Jarvan IV, Shyvanna or Shen. With Ornn I can usually win my lane but let's say the game becomes really team dependent afterwards.

For instance with Ekko mid I can TP and push quite fast with a good escape. Or help other lanes. But with Ornn I'm stuck top for 15-20mins, then spend entire time in team fights, trying to protect our carries and to disrupt the carries in the opposition. But can't make much difference if the enemy team has strong burst and, for instance if the frontline facing us is like briar nautilus and morde.

Do you have any tips? I usually help the team after one of the turret top is destroyed.

Sunfire Changes

I’ve been an Ornn main and Makkro watcher for multiple years. I know Sunfire is seen as heresy but what about the new changes?

Someone please check my math here but I did I used the new percent bonus health damage and it’s marginally better for the first 2 items: (Sunfire, Kaenic). The moment you get 3rd: (Sunfire, Kaenic, Protoplasm) the damage on Unending Despair surpasses it. This is also ignoring Unending’s healing and better ability haste + health.

I know for someone like me who’s never been the best at CSing it could be nice to have Sunfire to help out and would objectively improve my CS but it just doesn’t seem worth it.

I feel like I’m missing something. Unending just seems across the board better. If someone said “well Sunfire is obviously an early game item” then fine, but why is it also now going to the same price as Unending, 2800 gold. I feel crazy, almost as if Sunfire isn’t bad, Unending is just so much better at everything and just slips under the radar since it doesn’t do CS or monster damage.

Fun Builds on Ornngle

I'm quite new to Ornn, Briar Main in Jungle but haven't missed a single chance playing Ornn in Aram so yea, been looking for a different type of Jungler and been enjoying Ornn a lot. I am not a hardcore Rank grinder, I think I'm doing well with Ornn default jungle kit but I'm looking for a fun alternative on how to make Ornn also more to a carry perhaps.. I was seeing the Zwag build the other day going Liandry into Eclipse but I don't really know if that could work for Jungle

Does anyone have some fun builds for him?

Ornn is unplayable in silver

Cant protect 4 squishis that are all 3/18/7.
Problem is all my other top picks get disgusting counterpicks.

When to build unending despair?

Hello everyone! I'm kinda new to Ornn. Watch some of Makkro, watched his guide to Ornn and item building. Found it very helpful

But still, i have questions about Unending. I love this item. I always go it first vs AD Toplane, unless it's Trundle, Trynd and other AA heavy toplanes, in which case i rush Frozen Heart

So, when and why should i build this item? Am i wrong for rushing it?
