This League of Legends champions tier list places 46 champions for Patch 26.17, 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 7 strongest champions right now — features Rakan (54.2%), Annie (54.2%), Sona (53.5%), Morgana (53.1%), and Anivia (52.6%). Rakan posts the single highest win rate at 54.2%. For players hunting an edge, Anivia is the most underrated pick this patch — S-tier results at only a 1.3% pick rate — while Lux looks overrated, popular at 9.3% 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.
