With only a 3-2 margin based on 85 matches analyzed, this Yoru vs Astra matchup remains contestable for both sides. Yoru shouldn't feel outgunned — the statistical gap is narrow enough that individual skill, positioning choices, and in-game decision making can easily swing specific encounters in Yoru's favor.
Avg KDA
1.29Yoru
1.51Astra
Astra holds a slight KDA edge in this matchup, recording 1.51 compared to Yoru's 1.29. While this 0.22 point difference indicates Astra tends to come out ahead in engagements, the gap remains small enough that skilled Yoru players can overcome it through superior positioning, utility timing, or simply winning crucial aim duels. The data suggests Astra's kit may offer marginally better tools for securing kills while staying alive, but Yoru players shouldn't feel disadvantaged when taking fights in this matchup.
Avg Kills
16.3Yoru
15.4Astra
Yoru secures approximately 0.8 more kills per match than Astra in this head-to-head (16.3 vs 15.4). Over the course of a typical 20+ round game, this translates to Yoru contributing several additional eliminations to their team's efforts. The gap indicates Yoru's playstyle or kit provides slightly better kill-securing opportunities, though Astra can compensate through superior utility assistance, site anchoring, or clutch performances.
Avg Deaths
15.5Yoru
14.6Astra
Astra survives longer in this matchup, dying 14.6 times per game compared to Yoru's 15.5 deaths. This 0.9 death difference per match means Astra is available for more rounds, contributing to late-round scenarios and clutch situations more frequently. Yoru players should examine their positioning and aggression timing — the data suggests Astra's approach to these duels results in better survivability outcomes.
DMG/Round
141.9Yoru
135.5Astra
Yoru applies 6.4 more damage per round than Astra in this matchup (141.9 vs 135.5 ADR). While not overwhelming, this gap compounds meaningfully over a full match: Yoru contributes noticeably more chip damage, assists, and near-kills that set up teammates. Astra can close this gap through better trading patterns, ensuring their damage leads to actual eliminations rather than just tagging opponents who then escape or get healed.
HS %
30.7%Yoru
32.6%Astra
Astra lands headshots at a slightly higher rate (32.6% vs 30.7%), providing a modest but meaningful advantage in time-to-kill during duels. This 1.9 percentage point edge translates to Astra more frequently one-tapping or two-tapping opponents before Yoru can fully react. Yoru players should counter this by avoiding predictable angle holds, using movement to throw off Astra's crosshair placement, and prefiring common positions to negate the accuracy gap.

Attack Side Breakdown
Astra demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Yoru in this matchup, converting 50.3% of attacking rounds versus 48.5%. While this 1.8 point edge gives Astra slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Yoru players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.
The data from 85 competitive games suggests Astra's kit provides marginally better tools for attack-side scenarios. This could manifest as slightly more effective entry utility, better post-plant stalling, or superior mid-round adaptability. However, Yoru teams shouldn't dramatically alter their attacking approach — instead, focus on tightening execute timing, coordinating utility chains more precisely, and ensuring trades are happening when entries fail. Small improvements in team coordination can easily overcome a 1.8% gap.
When taking entry duels, Astra holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Yoru players should still take confident entries when they have good information or utility support. The key adjustment is ensuring you're not taking unnecessary 50-50 duels — look for angles where you have an advantage through utility, information, or teammate support. Astra can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Astra's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Yoru should compensate by being more deliberate about post-plant positioning — take spots that offer escape routes or trade potential rather than hero plays. Stack post-plants with teammates when possible, and use utility efficiently to maximize delay time. The 1.8 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.
Defense Side Breakdown
Astra shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Yoru, winning 51.5% of defense rounds compared to 49.7%. This 1.8 percentage point edge suggests Astra's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Yoru players to overcome.
When deciding site assignments, Astra can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 1.8% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Yoru should consider pairing with a teammate on their site rather than solo anchoring, or taking positions that allow early rotates rather than committing to extended holds. The advantage is small but worth considering in close games.
Astra demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Astra converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Yoru should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Astra when you can wait for teammates. Astra can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.
On eco and force buy rounds, the 1.8% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Yoru should be more conservative with eco aggression against Astra and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Astra can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.
Overall Side Analysis
Astra holds clear advantages on both attack (50.3%) and defense (51.5%), establishing themselves as the superior choice in the Yoru vs Astra matchup regardless of map side. This consistency across both halves means Astra doesn't need to play for specific sides or rely on winning a particular half to succeed.
Astra's advantage holds across all map types and team compositions. Whether on attack-sided, defense-sided, or balanced maps, Astra performs better. Yoru teams should consider compositions that can cover their weaknesses — pair Yoru with strong fragging agents who can carry during their difficult matchup encounters, and ensure utility supports Yoru's positioning.
For ranked climbing specifically, Astra is the objectively better pick in this matchup. If you're equally comfortable on both agents and frequently face this matchup, practicing Astra provides a measurable ranked advantage. Yoru players should focus on team play, utility value, and avoiding direct Astra confrontations rather than trying to outfrag them.
The verdict is clear: Astra wins this matchup on both sides of the map. The combined 3.6 percentage point advantage across attack and defense represents a meaningful statistical edge. Yoru isn't unplayable, but faces an uphill battle requiring stronger team support and more disciplined play to compete.
Duelist vs Controller Dynamics
The Duelist (Yoru) vs Controller (Astra) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Yoru's Duelist abilities serve different purposes than Astra's Controller kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.
Understanding how Duelist abilities interact with Controller counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Yoru's Duelist toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Astra's Controller kit counters others. The Astra advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
