Win rates are pooled across Iron, Bronze and Silver for each lane, weighted by games, and a champion needs 150+ games and a 1%+ pick rate in that lane. We rank by the low end of the 95% win-rate range, so a big win rate on a few games ranks below a solid one on many. Each champion is listed in its best lane.
