Maokai vs Amumu Matchup Summary

The Maokai vs Amumu matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 9 recent matches analyzed, Amumu wins with a 66.7% win rate compared to Maokai's 33.3%, giving Amumu a 33.3 percentage point advantage. Amumu dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Maokai 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 Maokai leads by 0.9s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Amumu has a strong advantage in this matchup. Maokai players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Amumu overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
1.5Maokai
0.9Amumu

Damage
575Maokai
515Amumu

Economy
8,317Maokai
8,101Amumu
Maokai and Amumu generate nearly equal gold per game, with just a 216 gold difference. Neither champion has a clear economic advantage, so gold leads will depend on individual play quality, kill participation, and objective contributions.
Utility
2.4Maokai
1.5Amumu
Maokai brings significantly more crowd control than Amumu, with 0.9 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Maokai far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Amumu should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
1,761Maokai
1,125Amumu
Maokai vastly out-sustains Amumu, healing and mitigating 637 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Maokai can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Amumu is forced to recall.
