What this means
From the video: Vambient's breakdown, lightly cleaned from speech
This comes as a shock maybe, but could be going to be B here. So, unfortunately, I think Rendor is very prevalent in high reload, but there's only eight for how much he's played actually like five 5% of the time and B 30% of the time, there's only eight challengers on radar. This is going to be a little bit of a shock, but yeah, he's not going to be S tier.
There is going to be a champion name starts with R and ends with Ian that is top in the charts has been for ever since the beginning of League of Legends. That I think Riven names will I mean you know those champion names will argue but they will not succeed. But yeah, there's almost double the amount of challengers than Rengar on Riven.
And it is a very incredibly popular champion that is going to be written. 3 I guess not too popular anymore, but 3% hit rate and 1% rate.
How this was measured
Two numbers, one division. First, how many players are currently in Challenger or Grandmaster maining this champion in Korea, Europe West and North America, from onetricks.gg. Second, how many ranked games the entire playerbase plays of this champion worldwide across every rank, from op.gg. The result is high elo mains per 100,000 games played, then reduced by the champion's ban rate, because a champion you cannot pick is a champion you cannot main.
This is not a win rate list and it is not a patch strength list. It measures availability-adjusted high-elo main density: how much Challenger and Grandmaster main representation a champion has relative to how often it is played. It is not the probability that maining this champion will get you to high elo. The score counts Challenger and Grandmaster mains only, drawn from a tracked pool that starts at Master; it does not include the Chinese server, and it counts accounts rather than people, so one dedicated player with several high elo accounts shows up more than once. Patch 16.15. The full plain English explanation, including everything this list cannot tell you, is on the main list page.
Popularity is not the signal. What matters here is how densely high elo mains appear relative to how often the champion is played.
