Vayne vs Aphelios Matchup Summary
The Vayne vs Aphelios matchup is a very close matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 176 recent matches analyzed, Vayne wins with a 51.1% win rate compared to Aphelios's 48.9%, giving Vayne a 2.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Vayne controls the early laning stage, but Aphelios outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Vayne needs to press advantages before Aphelios reaches their power spikes, while Aphelios should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints.

Vayne has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Aphelios's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
