Attack Side Breakdown

Yoru significantly outperforms Tejo on attack side, achieving a 54.7% round win rate versus 47.7%. This 7.0 point disparity reveals Yoru as the clearly superior offensive agent in this head-to-head, with advantages that Tejo cannot easily overcome through individual skill alone.

Based on 13 matches analyzed, Yoru dominates attack-side scenarios through multiple vectors. Entry success rate, post-plant conversion, and mid-round adaptability all favor Yoru significantly. Tejo teams must make structural adjustments to their attack approach: rely less on Tejo for key fragging roles, design executes that minimize Tejo's direct engagement with Yoru, and consider how team composition can cover Tejo's offensive weaknesses. Simply "playing better" isn't enough to overcome a 7.0% gap.

Tejo should avoid entry fragging roles against Yoru whenever possible. The data clearly shows Yoru wins a disproportionate share of first contacts on attack. Tejo players should volunteer for support roles — flashing for teammates, trading entries, or lurking to create map pressure without direct Yoru confrontation. If forced to entry, wait for maximum utility support and ensure a trade is guaranteed. Yoru can and should take aggressive entries, knowing statistical backing supports confident play.

Post-plant scenarios heavily favor Yoru in this matchup. Tejo struggles to convert spike plants into round wins at the same rate, whether due to weaker defuse denial, inferior retake resistance, or less effective post-plant positioning. Tejo teams should never leave Tejo alone in post-plant — always have teammates nearby for crossfires and trades. Consider giving the spike to a different player when possible. Yoru should recognize their post-plant dominance and play for spike aggressively after site takes.

Defense Side Breakdown

Yoru substantially outclasses Tejo on defense, achieving 52.3% round wins compared to 45.3%. This 7.0 percentage point gap indicates Yoru excels at core defensive tasks — anchoring sites, gathering information, stalling executes, and contributing to retakes — at a level Tejo cannot match.

Tejo should never solo anchor against Yoru. The 7.0% defensive gap makes isolated site holds extremely unfavorable for Tejo. Instead, pair Tejo with a teammate, give them off-site positions that allow early rotates, or have them play supportive roles that don't require extended site holds. Yoru should actively anchor difficult sites, knowing their defensive capabilities significantly exceed Tejo's.

Retake dynamics heavily favor Yoru. When Tejo needs to retake against Yoru, success requires overwhelming numbers and utility coordination — never attempt equal-number retakes and absolutely avoid solo retakes. Yoru should play post-plant positions confidently, knowing Tejo struggles to clear them effectively. In clutch scenarios, Yoru has a significant statistical edge that Tejo cannot overcome through individual skill alone.

Economy management becomes critical for Tejo in this matchup. Force buying against Yoru is mathematically unfavorable — the defensive gap compounds when utility is limited. Tejo should advocate for full saves, ensuring full buy rounds have maximum utility to compensate for their defensive disadvantages. Yoru can confidently force buy, knowing their defensive kit provides advantages that partially compensate for economic disadvantages.

Overall Side Analysis

Yoru demonstrates commanding superiority on both attack (54.7%) and defense (52.3%), comprehensively outperforming Tejo across all phases of the game. Based on our analysis of 13 competitive matches, this is one of the more one-sided agent matchups in Valorant, with Yoru holding advantages at every stage.

Map selection and team composition cannot fix Tejo's disadvantage in this matchup. Yoru outperforms across all map types and team structures. If you're playing Tejo into Yoru, your team composition needs to compensate heavily: strong fragging agents to carry Tejo's weight, utility-heavy supports to cover their positioning, and coordination to avoid leaving Tejo in isolated Yoru encounters.

For ranked climbing, avoid playing Tejo when you expect to face Yoru frequently. The 14.0 combined percentage point disadvantage across both sides is too large to overcome through individual skill improvement. If Yoru is meta in your rank bracket, strongly consider adding them to your agent pool or playing agents that have more neutral matchups.

Final verdict: Yoru decisively wins the Tejo vs Yoru matchup. This isn't a skill check or a "play better" situation — Yoru has systematic advantages that manifest across thousands of games. Tejo players facing Yoru should adjust expectations, play more supportively, and recognize that direct confrontations are statistically unfavorable at every stage of the game.

Initiator vs Duelist Dynamics

The Initiator (Tejo) vs Duelist (Yoru) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Tejo's Initiator abilities serve different purposes than Yoru's Duelist kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.

Understanding how Initiator abilities interact with Duelist counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Tejo's Initiator toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Yoru's Duelist kit counters others. The Yoru advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
