C Tier - Situational

These 6 champions—including Corki, Akshan, Sivir and 3 others—have an average win rate of 49.0% and generally struggle against popular meta picks. D-tier champions often have outdated kits, unfavorable matchups against current S and A-tier picks, or require very specific conditions to be effective. While dedicated one-tricks can still find success with these champions through superior game knowledge, most players will have an easier time climbing with higher-tier alternatives.
F Tier - Weak
(12)F-tier champions are the weakest picks in League of Legends Patch 26.10 and are generally not recommended for ranked play. With 12 champions in this tier averaging just 47.0% win rate—such as Jayce, Aphelios, Kindred and 9 others—these picks face significant challenges in the current meta. F-tier champions may be awaiting buffs, have been recently nerfed, or simply don't fit well against popular team compositions. Unless you're a dedicated main with hundreds of games on these champions, consider learning a higher-tier alternative for a smoother ranked experience.
