Observations

More from Blog of Legends

Riot buffed a bunch of champions to become junglers in Patch 10.4, but none of them remain in our jungle tier list. Riot then followed this up in Patch 10.6 with more buffs trying to make even more non-junglers meta. None of them made our jungle tier list.

Pantheon took the biggest jump in our jungle tier list for Patch 10.6, going from the F tier to low-D tier. No doubt his rise in professional leagues played a factor in raising his profile.

Poppy fell the hardest of any jungler in this patch, dropping down to F tier from mid-C tier last patch. Only two sites we pulled data from graded her as a B tier jungler or better.

Nunu & Willump are currently the winningest jungler in Patch 10.6 with a 52.9% win rate and a decent (3.2%) pick rate. The jungler with the second-highest win rate, Shyvana, has a 52.7% win rate and a pick rate of over 6% which makes her the strongest truly meta jungler. Last patch, Ivern was the highest-win rate jungler at 53.1%, but this patch his win rate dropped to below 51%.

While we just sang the praises of Pantheon rising on our jungle tier list, he is also the jungler with the lowest win rate (45.8%) despite a sub 1% win rate. Sylas, Hecarim, and Gragas round out the rest of the low-win rate junglers, but only Gragas has a pick rate of over 5%. The jungler with the previous lowest win rate, Diana, actually saw her win rate improve by about 1.5% in Patch 10.6.
