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 Zilean and Rell 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 Zilean'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.

What Zilean Changes Against Rell
Choices Zilean players make noticeably more or less often in this matchup than in their other Support games.
Best Zilean Build vs Rell
Usual Zilean build (Support)
85.7% win rate · 28 games
Against Rell
Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 3 of 15 Zilean games against Rell carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Zilean's standard build instead.
- Zilean usually completes Shurelya's Battlesong first, at 13.7 min (median of 27 games).
- Rell usually completes Zeke's Convergence first, at 13.6 min (median of 35 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.
