  • Both champions' overall Jungle win rates predict 51.9% for Master Yi; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Neither side reliably wins the lane: the average gold difference at 15 minutes is 161, within the margin of error (176 games).

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 Master Yi and Kha'Zix 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 Master Yi'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 Master Yi Build vs Kha'Zix

Usual Master Yi build (Jungle)

90.0% win rate · 10 games

Against Kha'Zix

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 11 of 112 Master Yi games against Kha'Zix carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Master Yi's standard build instead.

  • Master Yi usually completes Gustwalker Hatchling first, at 0.2 min (median of 90 games).
  • Kha'Zix usually completes Scorchclaw Pup first, at 0.1 min (median of 83 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.
