League of Legends Patch 9.14 tier list – ADC edition
By Josh Tyler
New Additions
Yasuo
After disappearing for a few patches, Yasuo once again graces our bot lane tier list as the only non-marksman on the list. He’s still ranked extremely low in the D tier with an insignificant pick rate, so luckily he’s not running the lane over…yet.
New subtractions
None
Rising Champions
Vayne (A to A+ tier)
Vayne’s win rate did go up a slight bit in Patch 9.14, from 50% to 50.5%. This was enough to bring Vayne up in a lot of the different sites’ tier lists and thus boosted her to the A+ tier in our ranking.
Jhin (B to B+ tier)
Falling Champions
Miss Fortune (B to C tier)
Miss Fortune‘s win rate hasn’t changed too much from last patch (it’s down about 0.3%), so her drop in this tier list may seem a bit curious. However, for the last few patches MF has been right on the border between tiers, clinging to the B tier. Unfortunately, it seems 9.14 pushed her over the edge to C tier.
Tristana (B+ to B tier)
This is shocking, because Tristana actually got a buff back in Patch 9.13, which resulted in 1.2% win rate increase since. The drop could just be rebalancing (she’s just under the B/B+ border) but it could also be due to another factor. Some of her worst match-ups, like Jinx and Twitch, are among the strongest ADCs in the meta, as well as some of the most-picked.
Kog’Maw (C to D tier)
Left to perpetually shuffleby the wayside, Kog’Maw remains as a below-average pick as he has been for the last nine patches. However, this is the first time he has slid into the D tier. Although he has the third-best win rate among ADCs, he also has one of the worst pick rates in the role.
Buffed champions
Jhin
Getting the cooldown decreased and root duration increased on his W – Deadly Flourish gave Jhin a nice little shot in the arm, boosting him up to the B+ tier. Since then, his win rate jumped from 49.4% to over 51.5% in just one patch. That win rate is top five among ADCs, indicating that Jhin might actually have some upside still.
Nerfed champions
None
