Read from Corki's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Sivir.
This is Corki's own plan; across 1,181 pooled games the lane is leaning Sivir.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Sivir | Sivir out-ranges you at level 1 and shoves with Ricochet, denying free trades. |
| Level 2 | Sivir | Level 2 Boomerang Blade poke and superior waveclear keep Sivir ahead in lane. |
| Level 3 | Corki | At level 3 your Bomb plus Valkyrie mobility lets Corki start winning trades. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 is even as her Spell Shield trades off against your poke and mobility. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is a skill check because her Spell Shield can eat your ult missile if timed right. |
| First item | Corki | With a first item Corki's mixed magic DPS out-duels Sivir's steroid-less kit. |
| Two+ items | Corki | In the 2+ item phase Corki's kiting and burst let you win if you bait the shield and space. |
Sivir out-ranges and out-shoves you at levels 1-2 with Boomerang Blade and Ricochet, so play back, farm safe under tower and don't walk into her wide poke lines. Her Spell Shield eats the first thing that arrives, so throw a Bomb you can afford to lose and follow with the trade you cannot. Twenty-four seconds at rank one is a long gap. Ricochet is expensive this early, and a pushed wave makes her pay that mana to the minions.
