Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Lux, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Lux wins 55.1% of 49 games (95% range 41.3–68.1%).
  • Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 57.0% for Lux; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Lux usually wins the lane: 505 gold ahead of Ryze at 15 minutes on average (48 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Lux players pick Presence of Mind far more often against Ryze: 15.1% of their other Mid games, 28.6% 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 Lux and Ryze 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 Lux'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 Lux Build vs Ryze

Usual Lux build (Mid)

100.0% win rate · 13 games

Against Ryze

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 11 of 31 Lux games against Ryze carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Lux's standard build instead.

  • Lux usually completes Luden's Echo first, at 11.0 min (median of 34 games).
  • Ryze usually completes Rod of Ages first, at 11.4 min (median of 36 games).
  • Skill priority: E > Q > 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.
