Ivern vs Malphite Matchup Summary

The Ivern vs Malphite matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 8 recent matches analyzed, Ivern wins with a 62.5% win rate compared to Malphite's 37.5%, giving Ivern a 25.0 percentage point advantage. Ivern dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Malphite players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential.

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

Farming
1.3Ivern
2.0Malphite

Damage
458Ivern
705Malphite
Malphite heavily out-damages Ivern by 248 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Ivern should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Malphite's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
12,583Ivern
14,378Malphite
Malphite generates a commanding 1,795 more gold per game than Ivern. This substantial economic advantage means Malphite consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
1.9Ivern
0.9Malphite
Ivern brings significantly more crowd control than Malphite, with 1.0 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Ivern far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Malphite should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
840Ivern
1,394Malphite
Malphite vastly out-sustains Ivern, healing and mitigating 554 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Malphite can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Ivern is forced to recall.
