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

Early Aggression

Renekton needs to punish Gangplank before they scale. Zone them off CS levels 1-5 and look for solo kills before first back. If Gangplank reaches 2 items even, you're in trouble.

Armor Rush

Both champions deal physical damage. Whoever builds armor first (Plated Steelcaps, Bramble Vest) gets a huge advantage in trades.

Close the Gap

Gangplank will poke you down. You need to find an angle to all-in. Use bushes, minion waves, and flash aggressively. One good engage wins the lane.

Exploit Renekton's Weakness

Renekton's main weakness: Falls off late, no sustained damage, outscaled. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

Renekton Win Condition

Bully lane, dive with R, snowball early lead

Gangplank Win Condition

Scale with barrels, global R, crit barrel one-shots

Kill Pressure vs Map Play

Renekton typically runs Ignite for kill pressure. Gangplank runs Teleport for map impact. Renekton needs to convert the combat advantage into kills before Gangplank outscales through TP plays.
