View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Kalista ADC vs Yunara ADC in patch 15.24 (25.24), including win rates and pick rates. With proper study, this can improve your chances of victory up to 57.3% in this matchup.

Statistical Matchup Analysis

Kalista with 1.7% pick rate (22nd place among ADC champions) rarely faces Yunara, who maintains 7.8% popularity. While this matchup isn't common overall, Yunara's solid presence in the meta makes understanding it worthwhile when you do play Kalista. Silver lining: While Kalista's 46.8% overall win rate (29th among ADC) struggles in the current meta, this matchup against Yunara offers a bright spot for dedicated players. Optimize for consistency: Lethal Tempo paired with Triumph (51.8% win rate, 7.2% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Blade of The Ruined King > Guinsoo's Rageblade > Runaan's Hurricane with Berserker's Greaves delivers 57.3% win rate against Yunara.

Win through macro: Kalista takes the matchup (51.04%) despite falling behind in CS (7.26 vs 8.09/min). Your victories come through roaming, team fighting, and map pressure rather than 1v1 lane dominance. Complete superiority: Kalista dominates both win rate (51.0%) and damage output (888 vs 816/min, 2nd among ADC). The 72 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Intriguing anomaly: Kalista wins the matchup (51.0%) despite a lower KDA (2.00 vs 2.20). This suggests you win through macro influence and clutch plays in key moments rather than consistent individual performance.

How to Beat Yunara as Kalista (ADC)

While statistically Kalista is slightly stronger than Yunara as ADC, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. 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, Kalista deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Yunara has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Yunara, ranking 1st (versus 7th for Kalista) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.2 versus 2.0) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Kalista ADC versus Yunara ADC matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Kalista player to maintain constant pressure on Yunara, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

    Kalista tips:

    • Rend is a valuable last hitting aid, since its cooldown resets if it kills a target.
    • Entering a move order once to trigger Martial Poise will not clear Kalista's basic attack target.
    • Due to her passive, Kalista's Move Speed is effectively increased by Attack Speed.
