Yorick vs Vladimir Matchup Summary

The Yorick vs Vladimir matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 25 recent matches analyzed, Yorick wins with a 52.0% win rate compared to Vladimir's 48.0%, giving Yorick a 4.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Yorick controls the early laning stage, but Vladimir outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Yorick needs to press advantages before Vladimir reaches their power spikes, while Vladimir should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Yorick leads by 0.2s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Yorick has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Vladimir'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.

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

Vladimir is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 70.0% win rate — 40.0 points above Yorick. Extended games heavily favor Vladimir, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Yorick must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Vladimir reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Vladimir 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.
