Every patch reshuffles the meta. These are the picks that currently win games at Mythic and above in the Malaysian and Indonesian servers.
S-Tier — pick or ban
- Tank junglers — the current patch rewards durability over burst. A tank that survives the first rotation controls the first turtle.
- Long-range mages — with assassins nerfed, mages that can poke from behind a tank line are safe and oppressive.
- Utility roamers — a support that can disengage decides more fights than one that can engage.
A-Tier — safe first picks
- Flexible fighters that can play two lanes.
- Marksmen with an escape skill — the pure damage dealers are too easy to dive right now.
Stop banning
Banning last patch’s assassin is a waste of a ban. Spend it on the tank jungler instead — that is where the actual win rate sits.
The rule that matters more than any tier
Two heroes you can play well beats five heroes you can play badly. Pick a main, learn two backups, and stop chasing the list.
