High Skill cap is completely due to the fact that she has to zone you with her ball. And mind you the ball does not have an instantanous movement speed nor can she move it freely.

She has to be a certain range to the ball to move it and then she to be in relative range to where she's moving it too. Oh and then you have to make sure that that you are casting your spells correctly. Dissonance and Shockwave are point plank AOE spells. So you have to move the ball to the area you want it to do damage in.

You have to Q and be in range at all times. Oh and it's not cheap. Using Q is 50 mana. Q and W is 120 mana assuming she doesn't sheild herself at any stage or put more points into W. If she is actively harassing you in lane at every opportunity with that spell combo she is wasting her mana.

Orianna's wave clear is just all right. Any mage with an AOE vector skill shot can farm just as well. Again if she's actively pushing you really hard in lane she's running out of mana because she has to spend 50 mana at all times to do anything.
