Leave a Comment

Patch 26.15 gave her a straight scaling buff, and she is now the default bot lane pick for an enormous number of players. The results have not caught up to the popularity.


As of Patch 26.15, Kai'Sa picked up a direct buff to Second Skin [Passive] and shot up the solo queue tier list. She is the most-picked champion in the bot lane right now, and the lane she keeps walking into is full of mages.


Check out the details on runes and builds below!

Patch 26.15 Tier List Analysis: What Actually Changed

Patch 26.15 Tier List Analysis:

Patch 26.15 is settled, and it did not land where we guessed on patch day. Locke's nerf did what Riot wanted and Mordekaiser's did not, the jungle turned over completely, and bot lane produced the biggest riser in the game. This is the frozen record of where the patch ended up, how our day one forecast actually scored, and which duos are quietly winning and losing games underneath the rankings.

Mordekaiser Counters | Best Counter Champions Picks and Strategy to Beat Mordekaiser

Mordekaiser does not outplay you. He walks at you, survives everything you have, and at level 6 he takes you somewhere nobody can help you.


There is a particular kind of misery in a Mordekaiser lane: you win the trade, and he heals it all back and keeps walking forward. Patch 26.14 handed him a bigger Death's Grasp and a hungrier Realm of Death. The good news is that his weaknesses are structural, not statistical, and they have not moved in years.

We counted every buff and nerf across 301 patches going back to 2013. Ten champions have dragged Riot back to the drawing board so often it still doesn't know what to do with them.


Riot has touched the average champion 24 times. Everyone on this list has taken at least 39. And the champion at number one has changed direction 28 separate times.

Top 10 Champions With the Best Ultimates

Leave a Comment

Some ultimates just win the fight the moment they land. These ten do it more reliably than almost anything else in League.


Every role has a signature ultimate that can flip a game by itself, whether it is a global execute, a point and click stun, or a rock that flies across the map to end someone's day. These ten are the ones that make opponents check the minimap every three seconds.

Sylas Counters: Best Counter Picks and Tips

Sylas counter guide preview

Nothing in the game stings quite like losing a fight to your own ultimate, which is the entire reason he feels so much worse to face than a normal melee mage.


Hijack is what makes him infuriating. It is also the part of him you can plan around in champion select, and once you do, he is a melee mage with one dash and a lot of cooldowns.

Xerath Counters: Best Counter Picks and Tips

Xerath counter guide preview

Xerath gets played in three separate roles, and he has less mobility than almost anything he lines up against.


He is mid lane, bot lane, and support, and in all three he does the same thing: stand very far away and hit you. Every champion who beats him is one that solves distance.

Nothing on the ladder is more irritating to share a lane with than Teemo, and nothing stops mattering faster once you know what Blinding Dart actually turns off.


He wins games at low elo by making a lane and a jungle path miserable, and every answer to him is available to anyone who knows what Blinding Dart actually stops.
