LoL Assassin Tier List - Patch 26.13

S-tier is led by Nilah, which performs strongly with a 53.5% win rate on a 0.7% pick rate. They are followed by Briar (52.0%) and Tryndamere (51.9%). These champions define the current meta and are the safest, highest-impact picks. In terms of popularity, Briar is the crowd favourite here at a 4.1% pick rate, while Nilah is slept on at just 0.7% — a strong S-tier pick flying under the radar.

A-tier is led by Viego, which holds steady with a 51.5% win rate on a 4.7% pick rate. They are followed by Fizz (51.3%), Vi (51.1%), Nocturne (51.0%), and Fiora (50.9%). These are strong, reliable champions that perform well in almost every game. In terms of popularity, Viego is the crowd favourite here at a 4.7% pick rate, while Fiora is slept on at just 1.5% — a strong A-tier pick flying under the radar.

B-tier is led by Katarina, which holds steady with a 50.7% win rate on a 2.9% pick rate. They are followed by Zaahen (50.7%), Naafiri (50.6%), Quinn (50.4%), Tristana (50.4%), Ekko (50.4%), Yasuo (50.3%), and Ahri (50.3%). These champions are balanced and fully viable with solid execution. In terms of popularity, Yasuo is the crowd favourite here at a 6.7% pick rate, while Quinn is slept on at just 1.5% — a strong B-tier pick flying under the radar.

C-tier is led by Master Yi, which holds steady with a 50.2% win rate on a 5.2% pick rate. They are followed by Evelynn (50.1%), Kayn (50.0%), Twitch (49.9%), Vayne (49.9%), Diana (49.9%), Sylas (49.9%), and Yone (49.8%). The remaining 1 champions in this tier average a 49.6% win rate. These champions are situational and need favourable matchups or team comps to shine. Despite the low ranking, Sylas stays popular at a 6.4% pick rate, meaning players overvalue it relative to its C-tier results, while Kassadin (1.0%) is more rightly avoided.

D-tier is led by Irelia, which struggles with a 49.4% win rate on a 3.2% pick rate. They are followed by Samira (49.4%), Aurora (49.2%), Talon (49.2%), Akali (49.1%), Elise (49.1%), Ambessa (49.0%), and Pyke (48.9%). These champions underperform against the current meta and take extra effort to win with. Despite the low ranking, Akali stays popular at a 4.1% pick rate, meaning players overvalue it relative to its D-tier results, while Elise (0.7%) is more rightly avoided.

F-tier is led by Pantheon, which struggles with a 48.8% win rate on a 4.4% pick rate. They are followed by Shaco (48.8%), Riven (48.6%), Rengar (48.6%), Kha'Zix (48.1%), Zed (48.0%), Camille (47.9%), and Lucian (47.7%). The remaining 6 champions in this tier average a 46.3% win rate. These champions are the weakest options this patch and are best avoided in ranked. Despite the low ranking, Locke stays popular at a 14.4% pick rate, meaning players overvalue it relative to its F-tier results, while Nidalee (0.7%) is more rightly avoided.
