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 Kassadin and Yasuo 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 Kassadin'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 Kassadin Build vs Yasuo

Usual Kassadin build (Mid)

93.0% win rate · 43 games

Against Yasuo

65.0% win rate · 20 games

Limited sample: 20 of 77 games finished this exact core, so treat it as an observation rather than a recommendation.

  • Kassadin usually completes Rod of Ages first, at 11.8 min (median of 68 games).
  • Yasuo usually completes Immortal Shieldbow first, at 13.1 min (median of 39 games).
  • Skill priority: E > W > Q — 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.
