Locke vs Yorick Matchup Summary

The Locke vs Yorick matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 14 recent matches analyzed, Locke wins with a 57.1% win rate compared to Yorick's 42.9%, giving Locke a 14.3 percentage point advantage. Locke dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Yorick players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Locke leads by 0.2s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Locke players can confidently pick into Yorick and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Yorick away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
