Corki vs Neeko

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming to reach item spikes while using (Q) and autos to chip Neeko safely.
Respect Neeko's medium early agency and her (E) root angles through minions.
Use post-6 (R) poke to control recalls and force Neeko to respect your range.

Trading pattern

Take short poke trades with (Q) and autos, preserving (W) for escapes from (E) root or (R) all-in.
Punish Neeko when she wastes (E) or (R) by stepping forward with (R) poke.
Avoid fighting when Neeko's disguise or (W) clone creates uncertainty about her position.

Danger windows

Neeko is dangerous when (E) can root through minions and (R) is available for burst and knock-up.
Using (W) forward or forcing it reduces your escape options and increases vulnerability.
Avoid extended trades when Neeko's disguise or (W) clone misdirection is active and her crowd control is off cooldown.

Early game

Punish Neeko after she misses (E) by stepping forward with (Q) and autos.
Avoid extended fights before level 6 and don't use (W) forward without knowing Neeko's cooldowns.
Maintain a stable wave to prevent Neeko from leveraging (E) angles through minions.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R), shifting lane to repeat poke and forcing respect for your all-in windows.
First completed damage item boosts poke damage, allowing more confident trades and wave pressure.
Mid-game item spikes increase poke threat, turning earlier neutral trades into losing ones for Neeko.

Win conditions

Farm safely to item spikes while using (Q) and (R) poke to chip Neeko before fights or recalls.
Use (R) rockets to control Neeko's movement and force her to respect your poke range.
Punish Neeko when she misses (E) or when (R) is down by stepping forward for short trades and wave pressure.
