Vladimir vs Maokai Matchup Summary

The Vladimir vs Maokai matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Vladimir wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Maokai's 20.0%, giving Vladimir a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Vladimir dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Maokai players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Maokai leads by 2.1s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Vladimir players can confidently pick into Maokai and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Maokai away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
6.0Vladimir
5.9Maokai
Vladimir and Maokai farm at nearly identical rates in this matchup, with only a 0.1 CS/min difference. Neither champion holds a meaningful farming advantage, so lane dominance will come from trading and jungle interaction rather than CS leads.
Damage
983Vladimir
684Maokai
Vladimir heavily out-damages Maokai by 298 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Maokai should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Vladimir's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
12,621Vladimir
10,524Maokai
Vladimir generates a commanding 2,097 more gold per game than Maokai. This substantial economic advantage means Vladimir consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game. Maokai should focus on cost-effective item choices and avoid unnecessary deaths to prevent falling further behind.
Utility
0.2Vladimir
2.3Maokai
Maokai brings significantly more crowd control than Vladimir, with 2.1 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Maokai far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Vladimir should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
1,783Vladimir
2,322Maokai
Maokai vastly out-sustains Vladimir, healing and mitigating 539 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Maokai can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Vladimir is forced to recall. Building grievous wounds early is essential for Vladimir, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.
