How are champion matchup win rates calculated?

Win rates are calculated from thousands of ranked games in Emerald+ elo on the current patch. Data is sourced from OP.GG and updated regularly.

What does a 55% win rate matchup mean?

A 55% win rate means Champion 1 wins 55 out of every 100 games against Champion 2 in ranked. Anything above 52% is considered a favorable matchup.

Do matchup win rates change every patch?

Yes. Champion buffs, nerfs, item changes, and meta shifts can all affect matchup win rates. Our data updates with each new patch.

Should I always pick the counter champion?

Not necessarily. Comfort and experience on a champion often matter more than counter-picking, especially below Diamond. A 2-3% win rate difference is easily overcome by champion mastery.

What rank is the matchup data from?

All matchup data is sourced from Emerald+ ranked games to ensure the data reflects skilled play. Lower elo matchups can differ significantly.

How to Play This Matchup

Power Curve

Nidalee is strongest early game while Zac peaks mid game. Play around your power window.

MR Priority

Both deal magic damage. An early Null-Magic Mantle or Mercury's Treads can swing the lane. Hexdrinker is also an option for AD champs.

Poke vs All-in

Nidalee wants to whittle Zac down from range. Zac needs to find a gap close and commit hard. If Zac can't reach Nidalee, they lose. If they get on top, Nidalee is dead.

Range Advantage

Nidalee has range advantage. Zac should look for short trades when Nidalee uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.

Exploit Zac's Weakness

Zac's main weakness: Grievous wounds, burst before blobs, invades early. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

Nidalee Win Condition

Spear poke, cougar execute, early game dominance

Zac Win Condition

Long-range E engage, R displacement, blob passive revive
