Shaco vs Rek'Sai Matchup Summary

The Shaco vs Rek'Sai matchup is a very close matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 39 recent matches analyzed, Rek'Sai wins with a 51.3% win rate compared to Shaco's 48.7%, giving Rek'Sai a 2.6 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Shaco controls the early laning stage, but Rek'Sai outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Shaco needs to press advantages before Rek'Sai reaches their power spikes, while Rek'Sai should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Rek'Sai leads by 958 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. While Rek'Sai is slightly favored, Shaco can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Rek'Sai's mistakes. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Shaco dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 61.1% win rate — a 22.2 percentage point lead over Rek'Sai. This lopsided early game means Shaco can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Rek'Sai is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 61.9% win rate — 23.8 points above Shaco. Extended games heavily favor Rek'Sai, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Shaco must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Rek'Sai reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Rek'Sai survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
