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

Mid-Game Showdown

Both champions spike around the same time. The player who gets their first item faster wins. Focus on CS leads and smart trades to build an advantage before the mid-game.

Mixed Resistances

Vel'Koz deals AP damage while Yone deals Mixed. Build resistances accordingly Ã¢â‚¬â€ don't stack the wrong type.

Poke vs All-in

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

Range Advantage

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

Exploit Yone's Weakness

Yone's main weakness: Early poke, CC during E, burst before he snaps back. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

Vel'Koz Win Condition

Poke from range, R melts teams, true damage passive

Yone Win Condition

E trade safely, R engage teamfights, scale with crit
