How We Calculate Counters

A counter here is a lane matchup: Wukong and an opponent in the same position on opposite teams, in the same game. The games are ranked Solo/Duo games of Emerald, Diamond, Master, Grandmaster and Challenger players of every region, read every day. A matchup is listed from 30 games, and its win rate is pulled toward what the two champions' lane win rates predict, as if it had 50 more games that went that way, so a few lucky games don't make a hard counter. The full method is on the LoL counters page.
