Patch 26.20 · Stats from the 26.18 Master+ sample (3,021 games).
Corki, the Daring Bombardier, deals part of every attack as true damage through Hextech Munitions and stores missiles for Missile Barrage, every third one a Big One. Master+ players took him to the bot lane in most counted games, nearly always on Conqueror, and his usual build is Trinity Force, Manamune and The Collector.

Close the gap early — it wins at range and at three items — neither before ten minutes
Dodge the primary — its rotation is one skillshot; sidestep it and the rest is chip
Punish the cooldown — Corki is exposed while its rotation is down
Ward the flank — vision is what turns its best opening into a worse one
Respect the spike — Riot rates the kit 6/10, so a practised player gets more out of it than the average

Base Stats
RMissile Barrage
Everyone's favorite incoherent aviator is having trouble taking off in bot lane. So, we want to give a little more firepower to Corki's sorties later in the game, and really enhance his spell-weaving missile firing fantasy!
WValkyrie
Corki isn't particularly strong at the moment, so while this is a nerf on paper, we expect Corki will be overall stronger at the start of the season. This nerf is aimed at weakening his ability to crush a minion wave right before a Recall.
QPhosphorus Bomb
Corki is becoming a little stale in pro play so we’re delivering a nerf to open up the bot lane metagame for Worlds this year. We’re hoping to pro-skew this nerf by removing some of his trivial wave pushing.
QPhosphorous Bomb
RMissile Barrage
We’re delivering some adjustments to Corki with the intent of pushing him toward squishier high-AD builds and slightly toning down his extremely potent late-laning phase spike while still maintaining his presence as a strong laner.
Base Stats
Corki is a little overbearing at higher skill brackets in the bot lane, so we're bringing down a little of his early bullying power. He already falls off a cliff late game, so we're skewing these nerfs toward the early game, hence a base armor reduction.
Riot's data lists 12 looks for Corki with their own art, the base skin included and 33 chroma variants.

Riot Data Dragon 16.20.1. Growth curve: League of Legends Wiki — Champion statistic.
Corki, the Daring Bombardier, is a Marksman and Mage champion in League of Legends. Riot rates the kit 6/10 for difficulty, 8/10 for attack, 3/10 for defense and 6/10 for magic. Corki spends Mana and has 12 skins with their own art.
The yordle pilot Corki loves two things above all others: flying, and his glamorous mustache... though not necessarily in that order. After leaving Bandle City, he settled in Piltover and fell in love with the wondrous machines he found there. He dedicated himself to the development of flying contraptions, leading an aerial defense force of seasoned veterans known as the Screaming Yipsnakes. Calm under fire, Corki patrols the skies around his adopted home, and has never encountered a problem that a good missile barrage couldn't solve.
