Abilities

Riot's own text for each slot, in the order the champion learns them.

PASSIVE LIVING FORGE

Ornn gains additional bonus Armor and Magic Resistance from all sources. Ornn can spend gold to forge non-consumable items anywhere. Additionally, when Ornn reaches a certain level, forging items will grant a nearby ally the ability to buy one item from anywhere on the map. This will trigger every few levels.

1 VOLCANIC RUPTURE

Ornn slams the ground, sending out a fissure dealing damage and slowing enemies hit. After a small delay, a magma pillar forms at the end location.

2 BELLOWS BREATH

Ornn advances, breathing fire. Enemies hit by the final gout of flame become Brittle.

3 SEARING CHARGE

Ornn charges, dealing damage to enemies he passes through. If Ornn collides with terrain while charging, the impact creates a shockwave around him which deals damage and knocks up enemies.

ULTIMATE CALL OF THE FORGE GOD

Ornn summons a massive elemental at a location which travels toward him with increasing speed. Enemies run over by the elemental take damage, are slowed and are made Brittle. Ornn can recast the ability to charge into the elemental, redirecting it in the direction he hits it, causing the elemental to affect any enemies it runs over to be knocked up, dealing the same damage and re-applying Brittle.
