Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Jarvan IV, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Jarvan IV wins 52.8% of 72 games (95% range 41.4–63.9%).
  • Both champions' overall Jungle win rates predict 50.3% for Jarvan IV; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Neither side reliably wins the lane: the average gold difference at 15 minutes is 134, within the margin of error (71 games).
  • Jarvan IV players pick Ionian Boots of Lucidity far more often against Shaco: 3.7% 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 Jarvan IV 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 Jarvan IV'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.

What Jarvan IV Changes Against Shaco

Choices Jarvan IV players make noticeably more or less often in this matchup than in their other Jungle games.

Best Jarvan IV Build vs Shaco

Usual Jarvan IV build (Jungle)

70.4% win rate · 71 games

Against Shaco

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 6 of 52 Jarvan IV games against Shaco carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Jarvan IV's standard build instead.

  • Jarvan IV usually completes Scorchclaw Pup first, at 0.2 min (median of 52 games).
  • Shaco usually completes Gustwalker Hatchling first, at 0.1 min (median of 44 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.
