Jarvan IV vs Vi Matchup Summary

The Jarvan IV vs Vi matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 54 recent matches analyzed, Vi wins with a 57.4% win rate compared to Jarvan IV's 42.6%, giving Vi a 14.8 percentage point advantage. Vi dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.
