Yunara vs Kai’Sa Counter Pick

Across 5,275 games on patch 16.13.1, Yunara wins 50.5% of the time. A pool that large leaves little room for luck, so this matchup is close to a coin flip, and the outcome turns on in-lane decisions more than on which champion gets picked. The model rates it Even.

The duel comes down to range against scaling. Yunara’s attack range is 575 to Kai’Sa’s 525, a 50-unit edge that matters early, before either player has bought much. Base armor starts equal at 25, but Kai’Sa begins with 640 health to Yunara’s 590. By level 18 the order flips: Yunara reaches 2,460 health and 99.8 armor, while Kai’Sa sits at 2,374 and 96.4. Second Skin is the pressure that builds over time, since Plasma stacks on each basic attack and bursts for rising bonus magic damage. Kai’Sa’s item purchases upgrade her abilities directly, so her strength arrives in jumps rather than a steady climb. Killer Instinct’s dash toward an enemy champion is how she starts fights. For the long game, Cultivation of Spirit adds attack speed, on-hit damage and attacks that hit nearby enemies, and Vow of the First Lands adds magic damage on critical strikes that ignores the 96.4 armor. Kai’Sa also moves faster, 335 to 325, and that often decides who starts the fight.
