View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Corki ADC vs Kai'Sa ADC in patch 15.15 (25.15), including win rates and pick rates. With proper study, this can improve your chances of victory up to 73.8% in this matchup.

Statistical Matchup Analysis

While Corki remains a niche pick (1.9% pick rate, 25th place out of 30 ADC champions), Kai'Sa dominates the current meta bot lane with 17.6% popularity. Mastering this matchup is crucial for Corki players - you'll face Kai'Sa in the majority of your games. Challenging situation: Corki's weak 47.8% overall win rate compounds with this difficult matchup, creating serious obstacles for climbing. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Conqueror + Presence of Mind combination (70.4% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, Manamune, Rapid Firecannon, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 48.6% to 73.8% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Corki's superior farming (7.29 vs 7.27/min, 10th among ADC) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.02 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Corki outputs more damage (935 vs 743/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Skill-based matchup: Identical KDA (2.50) with 48.6% win rate indicates that macro play, team coordination, and clutch moments determine outcomes more than individual mechanics.

Corki tips:

  • Phosphorus Bomb can be used to reveal enemy units that might be hiding in a nearby patch of brush.
  • Valkyrie can be used defensively as well, so try using it for a quick escape.
  • Corki can continue to attack while using Gatling Gun. Maximizing Gatling Gun is key to mastering Corki.

Playing Against Kai'Sa

  • Kai'Sa is very good at picking off isolated enemies. Stick together against her.
  • Kai'Sa is very vulnerable to getting outranged by mages and long range carries.
  • Make sure to place wards in your blind spots so you can see Kai'Sa coming.
