  • That is 7.1 points better for Irelia than both champions' overall Top win rates predict (51.1%), so the matchup itself favors this pick — not just champion strength.
  • Irelia usually wins the lane: 1,528 gold ahead of Yorick at 15 minutes on average (98 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Irelia players pick Triple Tonic far more often against Yorick: 46.1% of their other Top games, 61.0% 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 Irelia and Yorick 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 Irelia'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 Irelia Build vs Yorick

Usual Irelia build (Top)

58.8% win rate · 277 games

Limited sample: 25 of 70 games finished this exact core, so treat it as an observation rather than a recommendation.

  • Irelia usually completes Blade of The Ruined King first, at 10.9 min (median of 98 games).
  • Yorick usually completes Trinity Force first, at 15.1 min (median of 49 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > W > E — 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.
