Key takeaways

  • Shaco is favored in this matchup: Gwen wins 29.2% of 24 games, and the whole 95% range (14.9–49.2%) is on the same side of 50%.
  • That is 26.0 points worse for Gwen than both champions' overall Jungle win rates predict (55.2%), so the matchup itself works against this pick.
  • Gwen players pick Ionian Boots of Lucidity far more often against Shaco: 1.5% of their other Jungle games, 8.3% 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 Gwen 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 Gwen'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.

Best Gwen Build vs Shaco

Usual Gwen build (Jungle)

71.2% win rate · 59 games

Against Shaco

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 5 of 15 Gwen games against Shaco carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Gwen's standard build instead.

  • 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.
