Yunara Power Spikes (Patch 26.20)

Bot

When Yunara Bot gets stronger, in the order it happens in a typical ranked game: ability unlocks from the most common skill order, item spikes at the median minute players finish them, and the game length Yunara wins most.

  3. Lv 11

Yunara Mid and Late Game

What Yunara does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.

Play to these strengths

  • Yunara farms well (percentile 97): keep catching side waves between fights.
  • Yunara is a main damage source (78/100): stay alive and in range for the whole fight rather than diving first.
  • Side-lane pressure pays: Yunara rates 75/100 for damage to buildings. Push a side wave while the team holds mid.
  • Yunara wins 4.5 points more in long games than short ones: avoid coin-flip fights early and let the game go long.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Vision is a weak spot (4/100): buy Control Wards and sweep before you face-check.

MetaBot Tips
  • Yunara has less crowd control than most champions. This can make locking down kills or ganking for other players more difficult.
  • Yunara has a much higher late game win rate than their early game win rate. Take advantage of this by spending the early game farming and avoiding unneccessary fights.
  • Yunara has a greater attack range than most champions. Take advantage of this by poking with autos at max range whenever you get the chance, and back off to maintain that max range distance to maximize trades.
  • Yunara has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.
