In Iron tier, Rammus achieves a 57.6% win rate, which gradually declines to 54.5% in Diamond. This trend often indicates that Rammus's strengths can be more effectively countered by experienced players who understand the champion's weaknesses and trading patterns. The declining performance (Iron (57.6%), Bronze (50.3%), Silver (55.2%), Gold (54.6%), Platinum (51.6%)) suggests that while Rammus can be effective in lower ranks where opponents may not exploit vulnerabilities, higher-tier players are better equipped to neutralize Rammus's advantages.
