Key takeaways

  • Yasuo vs Ryze is an even matchup: Yasuo wins 50.3% of 181 games, and the 95% range (43.1–57.5%) comfortably includes 50%.
  • Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 53.4% for Yasuo; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Yasuo usually wins the lane: 649 gold ahead of Ryze at 15 minutes on average (67 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Yasuo players pick Overgrowth much less often against Ryze: 62.9% of their other Mid games, 50.0% 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 Yasuo and Ryze 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 Yasuo'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 Yasuo Build vs Ryze

Usual Yasuo build (Mid)

90.0% win rate · 10 games

Against Ryze

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 7 of 43 Yasuo games against Ryze carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Yasuo's standard build instead.

  • Yasuo usually completes Immortal Shieldbow first, at 13.4 min (median of 35 games).
  • Ryze usually completes Rod of Ages first, at 11.8 min (median of 55 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.
