Toplane - Riven, Kayle, might be considered jax and morde Jungle - Kayn, Jax, for low elo also Yi, if you are good with Rengar then he can carry quite well too Mid - Vlad, Ryze and Cassiopeia which is really hard Bot - Kaisa, Cait and Xayah + every adc in meta

If we're categorizing "hypercarries" as champions who are able to essentially solo carry after coming out ahead.

Jungle: Karthus Kindred MasterYi Twitch Evelynn RengarEkko

Mid: Kassadin Azir Cassiopeia Ryze Yasuo Annie Katarina Vladimir

Bot: Vayne Jinx Kaisa Varus KogMaw

Support: Soraka Zyra Brand Sona Janna Thresh

Only Brand and Zyra have the capabilities of carrying if they build full AP. The other supports are great at setting up kills

Generally any champion that has the potential to kill more than one champion on their own if they are fed enough. Ie any champion who reallly benefits from being ahead.

For me its hard for me to say some champions cajt hyper carry because most can. He'll ive player yorick and 3 v 1d before

A hypercarry is just a champion who is extraordinarily strong for their position late game. That's it. A champion can have incredible solo carry potential if they get a lead, but if they aren't anything special at six items they are not a hypercarry. So, for example, someone like Mordekaiser is not a hypercarry. Mordekaiser can bully lane and be overwhelming if he gets ahead, but once everyone is six-slotted and people have mercurial scimitar he is probably at his weakest, and has to rely on stronger late game carries to carry him to victory and play around them.

It also doesn't necessarily describe all champions who scale very well in damage and in 1v1s with items. Tryndamere has maybe two match-ups he loses late game in a 1v1, but he is still kiteable and peelable in team fights. He's strong late game, but though he can effortlessly kill a Twitch 1v1 late game he won't take over a team fight the same way.

So with that in mind:

Top: Jax Kayle Vladimir Ryze

Jungle: MasterYi Kindred Karthus Kayn (mostly red)

Mid: Kassadin Vladimir Veigar Cassiopeia Azir Ryze

ADC: Vayne Twitch KogMaw Kaisa

Support (none are hypercarries in the traditional damage carry sense but some supports definitely are stronger late than others): Sona Taric
