LoL Tier List: League of Legends

Published

1 year ago

on

To all my folks who live and breathe LoL and all of its spin-offs, this LoL Tier List is for you. So, get up (come on now), go on that bathroom break, grab some snacks and drinks because you are in for a chunky, geeky, and up-to-date tier list—and believe me, this is gonna take a while.

Major update: Tier list is updated and separated for each lane. We also added SS- Tier and the heroes’  details and abilities under this tier.

For those of you who don’t know (shame on you!), League of Legends (LoL) is the bestest (I know, I know, that’s technically not a word but in this case, it is—don’t argue) multiplayer online battle arena game in THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. And no, my mind cannot be changed, and here’s why.

Developed by Riot Games in 2009, LoL successfully grew into the world’s largest e-sport with an impressive international competitive scene composed of countless leagues (with LEC, LCS, LCK, LPL being the major ones) that usually have their own minor leagues. Now, I’d like you to take a minute to imagine just how big this annual event is. If we look back at the 2019 League of Legends World Championship, you’d see that it has a whopping 100 million unique viewers, peaking at a concurrent viewership of 44 million. Pretty impressive right?

The demand for this kick-ass game is so immense that Riot Games had to launch a mobile version as well as a handful of spin-offs. As expected, all of them have been well-received by the public. League of Legends: Wild Rift has been downloaded more than 38 million times despite being launched just last year. Teamfight Tactics, the auto-chess game, has more than 33 million players each month and has been played for more than 2.5 billion hours. Legends of Runeterra, the collectible card game, has already garnered 14.2 million unique players.

Without a doubt, League of Legends is indeed a top-tier game that has undeniable influence way beyond its genre. That said, it isn’t a surprise that this game also has an impeccable roster of characters that begs to be grouped into tiers – especially with the newest patch (which we will discuss in detail later on).

All that said, let us now proceed to the main event: The Ultimate LoL Tier List.

LOL TIER LIST

One of the things that make LoL really really engaging as a game is that players can choose from five different roles. Because of this, I think that it only makes sense for us to dissect our ultimate Lol Tier List based on these five equally amazing roles before grouping the characters again based on their tier. (If by any chance, you are still yet to be blessed with the life-changing experience of playing this wonderful wonderful game, I will briefly talk about the gameplay later on so stay tuned.)

Okay, now that everything is set let us start.

LOL TIER LIST: TOP LANE

Welcome to our LOL Tier List: Top Lane Champions. Most Top Lane Champions are Tanky Melee Bruiser, or AP Carry with lots of CC or Utility. In layman’s terms, melee champs are those whose role is to either initiate fights and soak up the initial damage and CC or get in the opponent to zone him out.

LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: GAMEPLAY

The gameplay revolves around two teams of five players each controlling half the map. Each player is required to choose a unique character for their team, known as a champion. Each champion has unique abilities and gameplay styles. During a match, players make their champions stronger by gathering experience points and gold to purchase different items. They then engage in battles with the opposing team across the map trying to breach the enemy’s base and reach their nexus, A large structure located in each team’s base. The team which destroys the other team’s nexus first wins the game.

Tier List Methodology

Now I would like to share with you how we came up with this one. So, in making this Lol Tier List we looked at quite a couple of things that will justify the ranking we ended up with. We looked at the heroes’ win rate, pick rate, and ban rate (that’s a lot of rates). And then, we also took into consideration how they are performing in the current meta.

As I have already mentioned, we will be dividing our heroes in this Lol Tier List based on their roles and then into SS, S, A, B, C, and D. SS heroes are god-like and are arguably the best heroes to pick at the moment. They simply are THE BEST OF THE BEST. Those in S-Tier have impressive influence, are good in almost every situation, and are easy to gain LP with. Champions under the A-Tier might require substantial practice to get good but they are pretty powerful in Solo Queue and are very viable choices.

Compared to those in A-Tier, heroes in B-Tier need higher skills and knowledge but if time, commitment, and discipline for practice is not a problem for you they can still be great picks. Unless you are super super new to gaming, you already know that tiers C and D consist of heroes players usually wouldn’t pick. That’s because champions in the C-Tier need a good amount of knowledge to play. Nonetheless, they can still shine if used in the right situation. D-Tier heroes have little to no usage. More often than not, they are not worth your time because they are so easy to counter.

UPDATE: PATCH 11.18

As promised, we will also be talking about the latest patch in greater detail so here it is. As usual, there are champions that got some serious buffs such as Dr. Mundo, Draven, Gangplank, Jinx, Karma, Kog’Maw, Miss Fortune, Morgana, Singed, Soraka, Taliyah, Twitch, Urgot, Yone, Yuumi, Zed, Zoe. Of course, nerfs are also present and they are evident in Aphelios, Ashe, Camille, Jayce, Kalisa, Lee Sin, Renekton, Thresh, Trundle, and Varus. On the other hand, Fizz, Qiyana, Lilia, Rumble, and Talon were adjusted to make the game even more balanced. Patch 11.18 also spelled new items such as Ravenous Hydra, Titanic Hydra, and Umbral Glaive.
