Worlds Groups A & B total recap!

So groups A & B have finished up their group stage and we are soon to move on to Groups C (group of death) & D. But before we do lets look back on A & B and pull out all the statistics and find out which champs are getting picked, which ones are seeing success, and which champions are coming up short.

The first thing to look at is bans. Here are the top ten bans, for groups A & B (For the first time in a while, is not on here)

1. 84%
2. 76%
3. 60%
4. 44%
5. 40%
6. 32%
7. 28%
8. 28%
9. 24%
10. 24% Almost all these bans were targeted at solo lanes (and with the current meta, top lane was the heavy target)

Here's the pick percentages separated for each position:

Top Lane

1. 48%
2. 40%
3. 20%
4. 16%
5. 12%
6. 4%

So those Champs were picked the most, but lets take a closer look at their win rate and see how they fared on the rift.

1. (4 Games) (1 Game) 100%
2. 75%
3. 66.6%
4. 50%
5. 41.6%
6. 33.3%
7. 25%
8. 0%!!!!!!!!(Despite having a 20% pick rate, the mad man of Zaun just couldnt find a foothold in the first two groups of worlds. It's also worth noting that 4 of his 5 losses were against Ryze. So what the pros learned (SK Gaming) is that if you run Mundo into Ryze, your gonna have a bad time!)

Jungle (Pick rates)

1. 80%
2. 72%
3. 24%
4. 12%
5. 4%

Win Rates:

1. 83.3% So anyone watching the NA LCS Summer split cringed whenever a team picked Rengar, the trend being that he would continuously lose. Teams from other regions have proven there is alot of value in him, and the NA scene just needs to learn how to pick him up. 2. 55.5% 3. 45% 4. 33.3% 5. 0%

Mid Lane Being the most expansive role, I'll list all champs ran mid lane, and give the top numbers for percentages.

Orianna was the most picked mid laner with 44%, followed by Zed, Fizz, Yasuo, & Syndra each chipping in 20% & go undefeated so far, comes in with a 75% win rate(and with a 78% ban rate, Zilean was a hottly contested pick)

ADC The most picked ADC??? You guessed it, Lucian! 56% 44% 20% 12% 8% 4%

Vayne certainly deserves the MVP for the ADC group. Winning all three of her games, putting up big kill numbers, and even securing a penta-kill.

And since we're about to talk about supports, here's a few duo lane stats: Most picked duo lanes: or

Most successful lane: currently hold a 3-1 record, not too shabby.

Support: Pick rate 60% Virtually coming out of nowhere, Janna has taken worlds by storm (pun certainly intended) First picked up in the OGN, she now is top priority for almost all teams. 44% 32% 16% 12% (Picked 3 games & lost all of them, Blitzcrank is struggling to secure a victory so far.) 8% (On the opposite side Morgana has won both of her games very convincingly.)

So looking at the stats, here is the most picked team comp for Groups A&B

And looking at the win rates, here is the most successful team comp for groups A&B (I know ZIlean only has a 75% win rate, and Kassadin & Katarina have 100%, but Zilean has played four games, so I'm giving it to him.)

So there ya have it folks, all the stats and numbers your heart could desire. Keep an eye out after groups C&D conclude to get a full recap of their champions selected in games.

Happy warding,
