View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Corki ADC vs Samira 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 54.7% in this matchup.

Statistical Matchup Analysis

Corki with 2.0% pick rate (24th place among ADC champions) rarely faces Samira, who maintains 4.8% popularity. While this matchup isn't common overall, Samira's solid presence in the meta makes understanding it worthwhile when you do play Corki. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Hail of Blades + Sudden Impact combination (73.2% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, Manamune, Rapid Firecannon, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 48.9% to 54.7% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Corki's superior farming (8.01 vs 7.19/min, 3rd among ADC) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.82 CS/min natural advantage. Outclassed across the board: Samira leads in both matchup win rate (51.1%) and damage (938 vs 798/min). Corki must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Corki maintains better KDA (2.50, 9th place vs 21st for Samira), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Samira as Corki (ADC)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Corki versus Samira matchup as ADC, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Except for rare builds, Corki deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Samira deals mainly physical damage (84.43%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Corki is higher farming statistics (ranked 3rd among role champions) (versus 10th for Samira), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.3 versus 2.5) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Corki ADC versus Samira ADC matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Corki player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Samira player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

  • 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.
