Read from Corki's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Xayah.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Xayah | Xayah out-trades Corki at level 1 with Double Daggers and better auto DPS. |
| Level 2 | Xayah | At level 2 Xayah's feather stacking and steroid give her the stronger all-in. |
| Level 3 | Xayah | Level 3 Xayah's Deadly Plumage window beats Corki in extended trades. |
| Levels 4-5 | Xayah | Through levels 4-5 Xayah's root threat and sustained autos keep her ahead. |
| Level 6 | Xayah | At 6 Featherstorm lets Xayah dodge Corki's Missile Barrage burst and win the reset. |
| First item | Corki | First item flips it: Corki's poke and kite out-DPS Xayah's auto pattern. |
| Two+ items | Corki | With 2+ items Corki spaces outside feathers and bursts Xayah when Featherstorm is down. |
Levels 1-2 belong to Xayah: her Double Daggers and clean feather stacking give her better auto trades and a lurking Bladecaller root, so farm safely behind minions and don't contest her when Deadly Plumage is up. The feathers on the floor decide the trade, so move along lines a Bladecaller would cross least and leave the plane once three are down. Deadly Plumage is eighteen seconds at rank one and it is what wins her the auto war, so take your Bomb window while she is spending it clearing the wave instead.
