Arena Tier List - Patch 26.20
Patch 26.20
This League of Legends champions tier list places 173 champions for Patch 26.20, from S-tier down to F-tier. Placement combines win rate, pick rate and how much match data sits behind each result, so it is not a straight win-rate sort — an entry with a high win rate over few games ranks below a steadier one. The S-tier — the 17 strongest champions right now — features Shyvana (24.1%), Rell (22.9%), Renata Glasc (22.5%), Galio (21.8%), and Yuumi (21.5%). Shyvana posts the single highest win rate at 24.1%. For players hunting an edge, Nilah is the most underrated pick this patch — A-tier results at only a 0.4% pick rate — while Ashe looks overrated, popular at 0.9% but landing in F-tier. Rankings update daily from real ranked matches, so every placement reflects current performance rather than a one-off result. Use the tiers below to pick the best champions for your games.
