Key takeaways

  • Malphite vs Yone is an even matchup: Malphite wins 50.2% of 231 games, and the 95% range (43.8–56.6%) comfortably includes 50%.
  • Both champions' overall Top win rates predict 51.4% for Malphite; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Yone usually wins the lane: 196 gold ahead of Malphite at 15 minutes on average (227 games with a 15-minute snapshot).

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 Malphite and Yone 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 Malphite'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 Malphite Build vs Yone

Usual Malphite build (Top)

78.3% win rate · 23 games

Against Yone

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 11 of 128 Malphite games against Yone carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Malphite's standard build instead.

  • Malphite usually completes Sunfire Aegis first, at 14.0 min (median of 93 games).
  • Yone usually completes Blade of The Ruined King first, at 14.0 min (median of 162 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.
