Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Graves, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Graves wins 56.4% of 117 games (95% range 47.4–65.1%).
  • Both champions' overall Jungle win rates predict 50.6% for Graves; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Graves usually wins the lane: 427 gold ahead of Shaco at 15 minutes on average (116 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Graves players pick Lord Dominik's Regards far more often against Shaco: 51.6% of their other Jungle games, 61.5% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Graves and Shaco played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Graves's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Against Shaco

75.0% win rate · 20 games

Limited sample: 20 of 85 games finished this exact core, so treat it as an observation rather than a recommendation.

  • Graves usually completes Scorchclaw Pup first, at 0.1 min (median of 97 games).
  • Shaco usually completes Gustwalker Hatchling first, at 0.1 min (median of 70 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
