Free Champion Rotation Indexabase September 12th Forecast

Hey there everyone, it's that time of the week again where I predict with 100% accuracy the free champion rotation for the next week!

...kidding. The Free Champion Rotation Indexabase was something I started to help you all prepare for what's coming in the next free champion rotation.

HOW IT WORKS I count every champion type whenever it comes up- for example, if Syndra and Viktor were on the free rotation, I would count that as two Mages and one Support . I'll share the type log for the last several weeks to help you get an idea of what's coming.

TYPE CASTING LOG ((Key: A= assassin, F= fighter, MAG= mage, S= support, T= tank, MAR= marksman))

1. A) 1, F) 4, MAG) 4, S) 3, T) 3, MAR) 2 (<-- current week)
2. A) 1, F) 4, MAG) 6, S) 2, T) 3, MAR) 2
3. A) 1, F) 4, MAG) 4, S) 3, T) 4, MAR) 2

ACCURACY AND FORECAST FOR SEPTEMBER 12th

The 100% accuracy bit at the beginning was a joke, and if I ever nail a forecast 100% correct... I will apply for a job with Riot(kidding. 100k RP says Riot will use one of my old forecasts for their first April rotation next year). As I mention in my September 5th forecast, the Type Casting forecast will always be the more accurate of the two. This week, the Mage, Support , Tank and Marksman squads sent as many as I was expecting. That's a slight improvement to four out of six. I again correctly forecasted three appearances, anticipating Nami, Janna, and Twitch; though, as I made more predictions technically my accuracy there took a hit.

FORECAST: Assassin: The assassins have been playing it safe for the last few weeks, and with the Assassin Update looming ahead I think that trend will continue until they get worked on. I'm gonna stick to my guns and say they'll be sending two. Watch for Kha'Zix and Master Yi.

Fighter: With fighter the most populated and popular type and with Worlds coming up, I think they'll have more out next week, sending five, or even another six. I also am fairly certain Yorick will pop up on the free rotation once his re-work is done; since that wasn't this week I'm confident it'll be the next. Keep your eyes peeled for Aatrox, Volibear, Yorick, and Leona.

Mage: Mage and assassin have the most variance in their delegations, but since mage is the more populated type they'll crank out another four next week. Be on the look out for Malzahar, Kennen, and Annie.

Support: Everyone's favorite character type will be playing close to the chest this next week, fielding only two champions. Look for Taric , Fiddlesticks, and Nunu to show up.

Tank: Don't like tanks? Too bad! Four will pop up next week. Expect Sion, Olaf, Tahm Kench to TP in.

Marksman: After a long streak of sending only two, I expect the Marksman to put out three. Watch the smoke signals for Graves and Urgot and maybe Lucian to be kayaking downriver.

That's the forecast for this week! Be sure to check back around the same time next Monday, because I'll be cutting off a finger for each character forecast I got wrong! This week's fun fact: if you get hit with Morgana's Dark Binding, you automatically get sent down to Bronze 5 after the match.
