B → S+ · WR 52.4% · PR 13.3% · BR 13.2%

CaitlynDragon Lane
C → B · WR 49.0% · PR 24.3% · BR 2.3%
Caitlyn is still heavily picked (~18% pickrate), but her winrate has fallen under 49%, dropping her to A despite a constant draft presence.
EzrealDragon Lane
S → S+ · WR 51.5% · PR 13.5% · BR 1.3%
Ezreal remains very stable in solo queue: safe lane, constant poke, mobility, and strong ability to fight without overexposing.
DariusJungle
A → S · WR 51.3% · PR 7.8% · BR 14.6%
Darius holds S on the current patch: that is the level supported by their results and by the external sources we track. Win rate 51.3% at 7.8% pick rate.
KarmaSupport
A → S · WR 51.5% · PR 7.2% · BR 0.7%
Karma brings poke, shields, and lane tempo, but can lack hard crowd control against comps that force engage.
Dropping this week
Miss FortuneDragon Lane
S+ → S · WR 51.0% · PR 20.2% · BR 5.3%
Miss Fortune keeps strong lane and teamfight value. Her ultimate heavily punishes drafts that group poorly.
LuluSupport
S → A · WR 48.5% · PR 11.6% · BR 16.1%
Lulu remains one of the best hypercarry protection supports. She handles assassins well and strongly empowers ADCs that want extended DPS.
Master YiJungle
B → C · WR 47.6% · PR 9.4% · BR 59.5%
Master Yi can hard carry if the game gives him time, but remains too punishable by crowd control, invades, and grouped drafts.
PantheonJungle
S+ → S · WR 51.3% · PR 6.0% · BR 8.3%
Pantheon holds S on the current patch: that is the level supported by their results and by the external sources we track. Win rate 51.3% at 6.0% pick rate.
AsheDragon Lane
A → B · WR 49.8% · PR 4.0% · BR 0.1%

Watchlist: keep an eye on these
No tier change yet, but the curves are moving:
GnarBaron Lane
Tier A · WR 50.2% · PR 3.5% · BR 0.6%
Good hybrid profile between range, engage, and teamfight if rage is managed well.
RivenBaron Lane
Tier B · WR 49.2% · PR 1.2% · BR 0.2%
Less immediate lane pressure after the passive nerf.
KayleBaron Lane
Tier A · WR 50.3% · PR 1.8% · BR 0.2%
Strong scaling, but early game is too vulnerable into tempo picks.
