Ornn vs Shen Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Two very different profiles meet in the Top lane: Ornn the tank, Shen the tank. The sample behind this page is 1,228 games from patch 16.13.1, and Ornn wins 45.2% of them. That is 4.8 points under even, which is why Shen is listed among the champions Ornn struggles into.
Shared damage type here — mixed for Ornn as well as Shen. Ornn opens on 660 health and 33 armour, Shen on 610 and 34. At full build levels the gap widens to 2513 HP versus 2293, favouring Ornn. On autos alone the numbers read 69 AD for Ornn and 64 for Shen. There is a movement gap too: 335 for Ornn, 340 for Shen.
A missed Call of the Forge God from Ornn hands Shen the window to land Spirit’s Refuge. Level six shifts things: Call of the Forge God on one side, Stand United on the other. Ornn pays in Mana, Shen in Energy, so extended trades drain them at different rates.
This is a melee mirror in terms of reach — 175 versus 125 — so spacing matters less than ability timing.
That 45.2% rests on 1,228 recorded games from 16.13.1. The page tracks Ornn against Shen continuously rather than freezing on one patch.
