Graves vs Vi Matchup Summary
The Graves vs Vi matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 169 recent matches analyzed, Graves wins with a 53.9% win rate compared to Vi's 46.1%, giving Graves a 7.7 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Graves controls the early laning stage, but Vi outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Graves needs to press advantages before Vi reaches their power spikes, while Vi should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints.

Graves players can confidently pick into Vi and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Vi away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
