Based on 117 recent matches analyzed, Corki wins with a 53.9% win rate compared to Caitlyn's 46.1%, giving Corki a 7.7 percentage point advantage.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Caitlyn at 50.8% win rate — only 1.6 points ahead of Corki. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.
The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Corki has the edge early, but Caitlyn gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
