I think you are reading the chart wrong. I think the win/lose in the box is referring to the champ on the top rather than the left. Reading some of the footnotes at the bottom suggests this.
Edit: For instance, in the Jarvan(left) vs Singed(top), the box says Win, and the footnote says "Gunblade to win lane..."

i never found rylai to be good on mumu, the slow just seems realy weak to me on him. why do you like it?

It's a chart of Wickd's top lane match ups. Aparently Vlad, Cass, Trundle, and Pantheon are the guys you need to pick to shut Yorik down.

They both horridly counter pantheon in lane. Tell me one thing panth can do to Yorick? It's the same situation as malphite, you just lose to a guy who spams his skills at you and is immune to your spear harass. Yorick has the added benefit of autobreaking Pantheon's shields with his skill, as well, while Malphite just kites him forevah.

Well his note on Vlad vs Yorrick suggests it, but then he says to start cloth+5 as Panth vs Morde and to play safe early on... the chart seems wildly inconsistent in that regard.

I know who Mogwai is. I am not wrong for saying Yorick utterly trashes Pantheon. If Malphite is his #1 counter, then Yorick is 1b.

I find the lack of Deathcap in your mummy builds deeply disturbing...

mumu has very low base health, and of all the health items rylai is the only one that gives utility and damage. Warmog is somewhat meh on him, since it costs a ton and doesn't give you anything other than health, and the other hp items that you get (shurelia, hog/randuins, aegis) are situational.

Actually, I give up on deciphering this chart. In GP vs. Trynd, the footnote says "Garen has strong early game."

It's apparently a third Dinh. The coach/bro will address things like the infighting and other things like diet and sleep schedules. So yeah they hired a bro to be a mom, and he looks like the youngest bro from the video/stream shots he has been in.

Regi just needs to read The Art of War a few times, and you'll see him hoisting a trophy on the main stage again real soon.

Yeah, better learn through trial and error. By the way, did someone try Irelia since the patch? How does the nerf impact her sustain? The two I've seen faced Yorrick and both got utterly destroyed, tho in one case the Yorrick player proved vastly superior to anyone else in both teams and carried the game.

I am not wrong for saying Yorick utterly trashes Pantheon. If Malphite is his #1 counter, then Yorick is 1b. You kinda are though. I've trashed Yorick players by exploiting Pantheon's early advantage vs. him. Pantheon trades favorable vs. Yorick for a decently long time in lane. Malphite, on the other hand... let's just say I've lost lane to 1300 Malphites in tourney games. It's just not a winnable matchup, you really have no point in time where you can exploit an advantage vs. Malphite. They are vastly different matchups in terms of difficulty.

Do you think Vicktor will start seeing play in the top lane? I've been playing him as an AP mid going qeqeerewe getting death augment. Q allows you to trade favorably early, and the amount of range and damage on that lazer thing at lvl 9 can allow you to zone the enemy off xp, but there is the issue of his mana sustain. I think he has to potential to win lane vs some bruisers.

A lot of junglers will be slow/unsafe if you don't have a specially tailored rune/mastery setup for them. Naut, for example, is night and day different with a full armor rune page.
