Statistical Matchup Analysis

Kog'Maw with 2.2% pick rate (23rd place among ADC champions) rarely faces Vayne, who maintains 7.2% popularity. While this matchup isn't common overall, Vayne's solid presence in the meta makes understanding it worthwhile when you do play Kog'Maw. Even tiers, uneven results: Both champions sit at A+-tier, but Kog'Maw claims a meaningful 55.9% vs 44.1% advantage. Kog'Maw's kit synergizes better in this specific head-to-head matchup. Kog'Maw shows excellent consistency, combining a strong 52.5% overall win rate with matchup success. Amplify your advantage: The Lethal Tempo + Triumph rune setup achieves 59.2% win rate (3.2% popularity), while the core build Guinsoo's Rageblade > Blade of The Ruined King > Runaan's Hurricane with Berserker's Greaves (70%+ win rate) lets you snowball advantages into guaranteed victories by 15 minutes.

Lane dominance: Kog'Maw not only wins the matchup but crushes CS (7.33/min vs 7.20 for Vayne). This 0.13 CS/min advantage generates significant gold leads that compound your already favorable position. Complete superiority: Kog'Maw dominates both win rate (55.9%) and damage output (993 vs 844/min, 2nd among ADC). The 149 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Skill-based matchup: Identical KDA (2.20) with 55.9% win rate indicates that macro play, team coordination, and clutch moments determine outcomes more than individual mechanics.

How to Beat Vayne as Kog'Maw (ADC)

The Kog'Maw versus Vayne matchup as ADC is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

Kog'Maw deals mixed damage - the opponent has fewer options for defense. Vayne deals mainly physical damage (71.62%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Kog'Maw is higher farming statistics (ranked 8th among role champions) (versus 9th for Vayne), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items.

Key aspects of the Kog'Maw ADC versus Vayne ADC matchup

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