WhyGrasp of the Undying

Ornn is often trading in lane with Brittle empowered auto-attacks, making Grasp a great choice for additional damage and sustain.

WhyDemolish

Demolish on Ornn synergizes well with you health-heavy item build to ensure you punish successful teamfight victories with tower gold.

WhyConditioning

Conditioning's double bonus resists synergizes well with Orn''s [E] damage as well as role as a front-line tank.

Oppressive lanes: If you're playing into an incredibly oppressive lane (Teemo) Second Wind here will help you survive lane a lot more safely.

WhyOvergrowth

Overgrowth synergizes well with your tanky health build and passive resists, making you incredibly difficult to take down.

WhyManaflow Band

Manaflow Band grants you the mana sustain you need to stay in lane as long as possible so that you're able to effectively use your passive and abuse item power-spikes.

WhyTranscendence

Transcendence's mid-game CDR is massively powerful on a teamfight orientend champion such as Ornn. The extra CDR means more CC, more shielding, and more damage.
