Our tier list reveals who the community feels are the best mid laners in League of Legends in Patch 9.22.
Welcome back to the League of Legends tier list aggregations, where we attempt to give a picture of how various tier lists and ranking sites around the internet perceive the current meta. These rankings are determined by collecting data from the tier lists and rankings of ten different sites to give you the average strength of each champion in the five roles of League of Legends. We’ll start off by looking at the best top laners in Patch 9.22.
