Best Ormarr Build, Arcana & Guide for 2026

Ormarr
Tank
Introduction to Ormarr
▼Ormarr is a Tank in Arena of Valor who takes on the Support role. His passive, Deterrence, gives Ormarr's damage a chance to stun enemies and deal bonus magic damage based on his max HP, so every clash can create an opening for his team.
Unstoppable dashes forward and knocks the target airborne, while Swagger slams the ground to slow enemies and builds stacks each time it hits an enemy hero; once fully stacked, the next cast stuns. His ultimate, Walking Tall, spins his weapon around him nonstop, cannot be interrupted, heals him when it hits enemy heroes, and still lets him use Unstoppable to reposition.
With high health, average crowd control and low difficulty, but low damage, Ormarr is better suited to starting fights and protecting allies than finishing targets himself. In the following sections you'll find the item build, Arcana, Enchantments, summoner spells, combos, skill usage and how to play Ormarr through each phase.
