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

Shaco needs to punish Nasus before they scale. Zone them off CS levels 1-5 and look for solo kills before first back. If Nasus 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.

Hit and Run

Shaco needs to combo and back off. Don't stay in extended trades against Nasus's sustained damage. Short trades, then disengage.

Exploit Shaco's Weakness

Shaco's main weakness: Falls off late, team needs to play around boxes, squishy. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

Shaco Win Condition

Early cheese ganks, box traps, clone mind games

Nasus Win Condition

Stack Q, scale, become unkillable splitpusher

Kill Pressure vs Map Play

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