Elise vs Vi Matchup Summary

The Elise vs Vi matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 29 recent matches analyzed, Vi wins with a 51.7% win rate compared to Elise's 48.3%, giving Vi a 3.4 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Vi controls the early laning stage, but Elise outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Vi needs to press advantages before Elise reaches their power spikes, while Elise should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Vi leads by 686 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. While Vi is slightly favored, Elise can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Vi's mistakes. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
0.9Elise
1.1Vi
Elise and Vi farm at nearly identical rates in this matchup, with only a 0.2 CS/min difference. Neither champion holds a meaningful farming advantage, so lane dominance will come from trading and jungle interaction rather than CS leads.
Damage
814Elise
695Vi
Elise heavily out-damages Vi by 119 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Vi should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Elise's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
13,806Elise
14,323Vi
Vi earns 518 more gold per game than Elise, equivalent to roughly one additional component item. This economic edge comes from a combination of better farming, kill participation, and objective control, giving Vi slightly faster item completions.
Utility
1.0Elise
1.0Vi
Both Elise and Vi provide similar amounts of crowd control (0.1s/min difference), meaning neither has a significant advantage in locking down opponents for ganks or team fights. Lane ganks are equally effective for both sides.
Sustain
901Elise
1,587Vi
Vi vastly out-sustains Elise, healing and mitigating 686 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Vi can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Elise is forced to recall. Building grievous wounds early is essential for Elise, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.

Best Elise Build Against Vi

Sorcerer's Shoes is the optimal boots choice against Vi, providing the mobility and stats Elise needs most in this matchup. The top-performing core items for Elise against Vi are Stormsurge, Shadowflame and Void Staff. This combination gives Elise an effective balance of damage, survivability, and utility for the matchup. This build performs exceptionally well, achieving a 62.5% win rate across 8 games — well above average and making it the top item path against Vi. Adjustments may be needed based on team compositions and game state, but this build provides the strongest foundation for the Elise vs Vi matchup.

Vi late game win rateVi50.0%

Vi dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 55.6% win rate — a 11.1 percentage point lead over Elise. This lopsided early game means Vi can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Elise at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Vi. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Vi has the edge early, but Elise 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.
