Interestingly, none of the top 10 solo queue win rate champions see play in competitive, other than Irelia. Some of the most successful picks in competitive are actually pocket picks. Of commonly picked champions, Gnar, Hecarim, and Shen all have quite poor win rates in spite of many tries. Jungle

Azingy’s 3/3 win rate on Zac accounts for all of the champion’s picks this split For jungle, we don’t even have 10 champions with more than 10 games played. Majority of games on Gragas/Rek’Sai (180 and 186 respectively.) Very few junglers have seen competitive success. Only 7 junglers have a 50%+ win rate, and 3 of those (Wukong, Zac, and Olaf) have seen almost all their games at the hands of a single player. (Fr3deric played the lone Wukong game, Azingy’s Zac has already been discussed, and ReignOver has gone 3/3 on Olaf.) Mid

Some of the more notable new picks, Ezreal and Jayce, have sub-par win rates. However, this may come from a small sample size/players learning the champion. Only Twisted Fate and Ahri top both the competitive and solo queue win lists, but both champions are seen somewhat infrequently in competitive play. When we remove the 10 game limit, Diana also shows up with a 6/7 record. AD Carry

*Tristana and Lucian have seen a good amount of competitive play. Trist has a 30% win rate in 20 tries. Lucian’s struggles are well-documented. He has a 26.8% win rate in spite of 63 attempts For competitive, we use a minimum of 10 games played per champion.

Ezreal has a surprisingly high win rate in competitive play (AD Carry stats are tracked separately from mid stats) Although Urgot has fallen out of the meta, his strong win rate suggests that pros perhaps shouldn’t be so fast to move away from the anti-carry. Sivir is probably the strongest champion in the meta right now. Now other champion boasts the same fantastic win rate in spite of so many games played. In nearly 200 tries, Sivir still maintains a 57% win rate. She also tops the solo queue win rate charts. Support
