Patch Changes
26.16 → 26.17What changed since the previous patch. Champions are ranked by how far their pick rate moved, not their win rate: at our sample size a win rate swing of a few points is measurement noise, while pick rate shifts are measurable.
Entering the Meta
Picked clearly more often than last patch.
Leaving the Meta
Picked clearly less often than last patch.
How this is measured
Ranking uses the change in pick rate. A champion counts as entering or leaving the meta only when the shift is at least three times its own measurement noise, so a champion that merely got lucky never reaches the list.
Win rate change carries an average noise of 4.74 points across the 115 champions tested, so most values in that column cannot be separated from chance and are shown faded. This patch no champion cleared that bar.
Sample: 2.651 matches on patch 26.16, 5.154 matches on patch 26.17.
