League of Legends: LCK player power rankings – Week 6

AD Carry

1. Park “Teddy” Jin-seong (SK Telecom T1)
2. Park “Ruler” Jae-hyuk (Gen.G)
3. Park “Viper” Do-hyeon (Griffin)

The only real change to the ADC rankings, Viper continues the trend of Griffin players underperforming during the team’s slump. In particular, his damage output, gold per minute, and kill participation all dropped after Week 6. He didn’t have any particularly bad games last week (in fact he had a 6/2/4 carry performance in their only win of the week) but he just continues to slip down the rankings.

4. Kim “Aiming” Ha-ram (Afreeca Freecs)
5. Kim “Deft” Hyuk-kyu (Kingzone DragonX)
6. Moon “Route” Geom-su (Jin Air Green Wings)
7. Jang “Ghost” Yong-jun (Sandbox Gaming)
8. Sin “Nuclear” Jeong-hyeon (Damwon Gaming)
9. Gwon “sangyoon” Sang-yun (Hanwha Life Esports)
10. Kim “PraY” Jong-in (KT Rolster)

Support

1. Son “Lehends” Si-woo (Griffin)
2. Kim “Life” Jeong-min (Gen.G)
3. Cho “BeryL” Geon-hee (Damwon Gaming)
4. Park “TusiN” Jong-ik (Kingzone DragonX)
5. Lee “Effort” Sang-ho (SK Telecom T1)

Effort continues to impress me in his limited performance after taking over the starting support position from Mata. In SKTs four games (all wins) he died a combined three times.

6. Cho “Joker” Jae-eup (Sandbox Gaming)
7. No “SnowFlower” Hoi-jong (KT Rolster)
8. Park “Nova” Chan-ho (Jin Air Green Wings)
9. Ryu “Hoit” Ho-seong (Damwon Gaming)
10. Kim “Kellin” Hyeong-gyu (Jin Air Green Wings)
11. Cho “Mata” Se-hyeong (SK Telecom T1)
12. Kim “key” Han-gi (Hanwha Life Esports)
13. Park “Senan” Hee-seok (Afreeca Freecs)
