Briar vs Yorick Matchup Summary

The Briar vs Yorick matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 8 recent matches analyzed, Briar wins with a 75.0% win rate compared to Yorick's 25.0%, giving Briar a 50.0 percentage point advantage. Briar dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Yorick players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Briar leads by 0.9s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Briar players can confidently pick into Yorick and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Yorick away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
1,089Briar
866Yorick
Briar heavily out-damages Yorick by 223 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Yorick should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Briar's sustained damage advantage take over.

Utility
1.2Briar
0.3Yorick
Briar brings significantly more crowd control than Yorick, with 0.9 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Briar far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
2,120Briar
