Yoru vs Harbor Attack and Defense Performance
56.3%30.0%70.0%43.8%Attack Side Breakdown
The attack-side performance gap between Yoru and Harbor is dramatic: 56.3% versus 30.0%, a commanding 26.3 percentage point advantage. Yoru dominates offensive scenarios in this matchup to a degree that requires Harbor to fundamentally change their approach to attack-side play.
Our analysis of 5 competitive matches reveals Yoru has overwhelming attack-side superiority in every measurable category. Site executions, entry success, post-plant conversion, and mid-round adaptability all massively favor Yoru. This isn't a gap that Harbor can overcome through practice or "playing better" — it's a structural matchup disadvantage. Harbor teams must build their entire attack strategy around protecting Harbor from direct Yoru engagement: give Harbor lurk roles, put them in trade positions rather than entry, and design executes where Harbor's weaknesses are covered by teammate utility.
Under no circumstances should Harbor take entry duels against Yoru. The 26.3% attack gap makes entry fragging against Yoru one of the lowest-percentage plays in Valorant. Harbor must exclusively play support roles on attack: flash for teammates, smoke for executes, trade after entries, or create map pressure through lurks that don't involve Yoru confrontation. Yoru should actively hunt Harbor entries, knowing the statistical advantage is overwhelming.
Harbor's post-plant conversion rate against Yoru is catastrophic. The data shows Harbor fails to hold spike plants at a dramatically higher rate than Yoru. Never leave Harbor alone post-plant — they need constant teammate support, crossfire setups, and utility coordination to have any chance of winning these scenarios. Consider not planting at all if Harbor is the only survivor. Yoru should play extremely confidently in post-plants, knowing Harbor struggles to convert even favorable positions.
Defense Side Breakdown
The defensive disparity between Yoru and Harbor is substantial: 70.0% versus 43.8%, a 26.3 point chasm. Yoru absolutely dominates CT side in this matchup — their site holds are significantly harder to break, their retake contributions more impactful, and their defensive utility more effective at every level.
Harbor cannot be trusted with traditional site anchor responsibilities against Yoru. The 26.3% defensive gap is too large to overcome through positioning or individual skill. Teams must protect Harbor: pair them with multiple teammates, give them off-site lurk positions, or have them rotate immediately when Yoru's presence is identified on their site. Yoru should aggressively anchor the most difficult sites on any map, knowing their defensive capability is overwhelming.
Harbor should avoid retake scenarios against Yoru entirely when possible. The data from 5 matches shows Harbor's retake conversion rate against Yoru is dramatically lower than average. If Harbor must retake, require 3+ player numbers advantage and full utility coordination. Yoru should play post-plant positions knowing Harbor lacks the capability to effectively contest them. In clutch scenarios, Yoru wins at overwhelming rates.
Economy decisions for Harbor must account for their defensive inadequacy. Force buying against Yoru is essentially throwing away credits — the defensive gap makes partial buys nearly unwinnable. Harbor should always advocate for full saves, building toward rounds where team utility can compensate for their individual defensive weakness. Yoru can confidently force and half-buy, knowing their defensive advantages persist across all economy states.
Overall Side Analysis
Yoru demonstrates commanding superiority on both attack (56.3%) and defense (70.0%), comprehensively outperforming Harbor across all phases of the game. Based on our analysis of 5 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 Harbor's disadvantage in this matchup. Yoru outperforms across all map types and team structures. If you're playing Harbor into Yoru, your team composition needs to compensate heavily: strong fragging agents to carry Harbor's weight, utility-heavy supports to cover their positioning, and coordination to avoid leaving Harbor in isolated Yoru encounters.
For ranked climbing, avoid playing Harbor when you expect to face Yoru frequently. The 52.5 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 Yoru vs Harbor matchup. This isn't a skill check or a "play better" situation — Yoru has systematic advantages that manifest across thousands of games. Harbor players facing Yoru should adjust expectations, play more supportively, and recognize that direct confrontations are statistically unfavorable at every stage of the game.
Duelist vs Controller Dynamics
The Duelist (Yoru) vs Controller (Harbor) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Yoru's Duelist abilities serve different purposes than Harbor'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 Harbor's Controller kit counters others. The Yoru advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
