Unfortunately, the amount of diversity that’s possible leads to quite a bit of discourse, and there are few things that consistent top laners will agree on. If you find yourself disagreeing on the level of an aggravated Groundskeeper Willie , though, it’s recommended that you take a break and drink some water inst
The first former World Champion on the list, Ruler comes into the tournament as the best AD Carry in the world, and there’s very little debate. In a meta so dependent on dragon control, the importance of bot lane priority can not be understated. Ruler leads all AD Carries at the tournament with a 13 CS differential at 15 minutes. Finding flaws in his game is near impossible as he is virtually the perfect AD Ca
Getting banned between 15% and 28% of the time, Leona certainly stands out from the previous two by being all about the stuns. She might not be able to kill champions herself, but with an explosive stunning ultimate with a long-range, she can be a menace in team fig
The main reason to ban him, though, is his safety net of an ultimate, which rewinds him to wherever he was four seconds prior with fuller health and some damage to his opponents on return. This kind of sustainability can make him uniquely hard to kill, and a good obstacle to just avoid entir
No longer the wide-eyed young girl with a dream, Cithria is shown leading other soldiers into battle, rallying troops with her sword raised her high. A fitting ending to a hero’s journey. Cithria is also mentioned in Riot’s most recent board game, T ellstones , making her a staple within the League of Legends unive
The greatest players in the history of League of Legends cement their legacy at the World Championship. Faker , Mata, Ambition, and Rookie all etched their names in the pantheon of esports on this stage. Every year, players from around the world hope to reach the top of the mountain and throw their names in with the greats. This year is no exception. The only question is, who is currently the best player in the world? Who will carry their team and their region to victory? After days of VOD review, we built a list of what we feel are the top 20 players at the tournament based on 2020 domestic performan
Being the best player, on the best team, in the best region secures Knight the number one spot. Finding flaws in his gameplay is a tall order. He consistently gains advantages over lane opponents. He moves around the map and supports his team better than anyone. His understanding of his and his team’s specific win conditions is impeccable, and he brings incredible champion diversity to the World’s stage. Top Esports is the overwhelming favorite to take home the title and Knight is the catalyst for their succ
Caitlyn’s main asset would be W – Yordle Snap Trap, which traps enemies. Meanwhile, her Q – Piltover Peacemaker helps Caitlyn deal damage to a line of enemies. Her E – 90 Caliber Net serves as an escape tool, as she jumps backward and fires a net that slows opponents. Lastly, her Ult – Ace in the Hole can deal devastating damage provided players line up a shot within her loading durat
Blitzcrank is far from an unusual ban target, and there are certainly tons of strategies against him as he’s been in the MOBA game builds since the very beginning. But just because something’s old doesn’t mean it can’t still work, and Blitzcrank is far from being sent to the scrapyard anytime s
Despite his difficulty, fans do love him for his combos. For instance, Q – Steel Tempest gives him the ability to strike enemies and unleash a whirlwind. His W -Wind Wall gives him a projectile blocker, while E – Sweeping Blade allows him to dash towards enemies. Lastly, his Ult – Last Breath lets him blink-attack an airborne unit and gives him massive bu
The most prominent is Doran’s Shield, a defensive starter item that’s been an outstanding part of early builds lately, even on certain ADC champions in the bottom lane. With some extra regeneration through abilities like Garen’s passive, it can make for an invincible champion at an unusually early point in the g
The most complex champion on this list, Aphelios at a ban rate between 15% and 48% depending on rank. This champion is fairly locked in as a bottom-lane ranged assassin, but his unique ability to change weapons gives him everything from range, to crowd control, to even turret damage to hold his lane position. He’s a common pick for pro-play
Darius, as usual, sits near the top of the ban rate list with a rate of 48.08%. He’s a very straightforward champion with a lot of ways to deal damage, from bleeding his opponents to a destructive ultimate that resets on every kill he gets (brok
Large fighters like Nasus are usually able to survive on their own more than most champions, but it’s important to never forget your allies. Junglers can often be preoccupied with the exciting middle lane or the active bottom lanes near the dragon, and top laners like the one in this Pinterest meme can still get run over without a little h
