Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Veigar, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Ryze wins 44.0% of 134 games (95% range 35.9–52.5%).
  • Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 45.5% for Ryze; 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 234, within the margin of error (43 games).
  • Ryze players pick Flash + Teleport far more often against Veigar: 52.1% of their other Mid games, 76.7% 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 Ryze and Veigar 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 Ryze'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 Ryze Build vs Veigar

Usual Ryze build (Mid)

81.0% win rate · 21 games

Against Veigar

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 9 of 30 Ryze games against Veigar carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Ryze's standard build instead.

  • Ryze usually completes Rod of Ages first, at 10.5 min (median of 32 games).
  • Veigar usually completes Luden's Echo first, at 11.4 min (median of 21 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.
