Kayle vs Ornn Matchup Guide
Kayle WinCon
Go up in cs.
Kill him at first item.
WinCon
Without his pillar ornn lacks any good engage tools on you if you are not standing near a wall.
Thus, Ornn wants to q we or q e w auto in order to proc his brittle. If Ornn can reliability land these, he can start zoning you from the wave. Moreover, Ornn wants to trade ultimates at six since his has a much lower cooldown than yours in the early game.
Ornn also wants to play to get his item spikes in lane and then take fights around it. However, Ornn can also bait you into stopping it by forging and then looking to engage onto you when you try to stop it.
Wave Management
Wave position does not matter too much. Be aware of his jungler, since Ornn has very good gank setup with his ultimate.
Try not to push the wave when you are farming or poking with q.

Trades
Ornn’s damage is centered around his w and his brittle procs. However it’s short range means he lacks any reliable way to land it without his ultimate or pillar. Thus, its essential to dodge his q and stand away from the resultant pillar in order to remove the possibility of him using his e to knock you up and land his w. If you are in high elo, respect his triple brittle combo and use your ult on it.
