How to Use Samira Counter Data
This page covers the Samira matchups that matter most for the ADC role in League of Legends, based on ranked win-rate data instead of guesswork. Right now Syndra, Veigar and Karthus give Samira the hardest time, producing its lowest win rates in the current data set. Syndra is the worst of them: Samira wins only 39.1% of 174 recorded games against her. Going the other way, Katarina, Varus and Mel are matchups where Samira does well, so they are safer to face.
Every card lists Samira’s win rate in that matchup along with the number of games it is drawn from. A result backed by tens of thousands of games deserves more trust than one resting on a few hundred. Easy, Even and Hard tags are derived from the win rate itself: under 48% is Hard, over 52% is Easy. They exist to make scanning faster and are not a separate statistic. The figures come from ranked games at Emerald and above across all regions, using patch 16.13.1, and refresh every 48 hours so they track shifts in the meta. For the strongest items and runes, see the current Samira build guide; for abilities and complete champion details, visit the Samira champion page.
