Janna Mid and Late Game

What Janna does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.

Play to these strengths

Janna out-wards most champions (percentile 99): keep owning vision around the next objective.
Janna brings crowd control (percentile 78): start the fight or follow up on a teammate's engage.

Mistakes to avoid

Janna is not a damage carry (3/100): don't take fights expecting Janna to win them alone.
Janna mitigates little damage (8/100): one bad position ends the fight, so stay behind your frontline.
Janna falls behind in CS (8/100): last-hit the waves you can, items still matter.

Playing Janna

Eye of the Storm can be used on allied turrets.
Quickly firing a Howling Gale without the charge up can be used to heavily disable the other team.
Timing Janna's ultimate can push enemies away from a wounded ally or even separate enemies.

Playing Against Janna

Save an interrupt ability for when Janna uses her ultimate.
Listen for the charge up sound on Howling Gale in case Janna is trying to hit you with it from off screen or from brush.
Janna's at her strongest when buffing another ally. If you can harass her ally, it will weaken her ability to fight you.
