Who Wins the Vi vs Neeko Matchup?

Vi vs Neeko Matchup Summary
The Vi vs Neeko matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Neeko wins with a 60.0% win rate compared to Vi's 40.0%, giving Neeko a 20.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Neeko controls the early laning stage, but Vi outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Neeko needs to press advantages before Vi reaches their power spikes, while Vi should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Vi leads by 823 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Neeko has a strong advantage in this matchup. Vi players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Neeko 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.

Early Game vs Late Game
Neeko dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 66.7% win rate — a 33.3 percentage point lead over Vi. This lopsided early game means Neeko can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.
