LoL Tier List — Patch 26.7 (All Roles)
The definitive patch 26.7 tier list for every role. Updated after the Nami/Karma nerfs, Rell buffs, and support gold change. Find out who to pick and who to avoid in solo queue right now.
Patch 26.7 is a relatively stable patch with targeted support nerfs and a few jungle adjustments. The meta continues to favour scaling champions and strong teamfight compositions. Here's the full tier list for solo queue, updated for the current patch.
Top Lane
Garen sits at the top of the food chain with a 51.2% win rate in Emerald+ — his tankiness and damage output remain reliable in the current meta. Kayle is the scaling threat of the patch with a 52.8% win rate; she suffers early but wins games. Sion at 52.7% continues to be one of the most consistent tank picks. Ornn and Singed both took nerfs this patch and have dropped slightly, though Ornn's teamfight remains elite. Malphite is a strong blind pick into AD-heavy teams.
Jungle
Briar leads the jungle at 51.6% win rate — fast clear, strong dueling, and a simple gameplan make her the best all-around pick. Rek'Sai remains the best early-pressure jungler for players who gank and track the enemy. Fiddlesticks is a menace around objectives and choke points. Nunu & Willump at 51.6% is the easiest high-win-rate option for players who want to win through objective control rather than carry mechanics. Nocturne (51.6%) continues to snowball through his R and excels in coordinated plays.
Mid Lane
Ahri holds a 50.89% win rate post-nerf — she's been tuned down from 26.5 but remains the most popular mid laner. Veigar at 52.5% is slightly nerfed this patch (R cooldown) but still scales well. Cassiopeia (55.2% across all formats) has become a dominant mid laner with the 26.7 buffs. Kog'Maw mid is a sleeper pick at 52.4% for players willing to invest time. Annie continues to punch above her weight and remains the best beginner mid laner.
ADC (Bot Lane)
Jinx leads the ADC role at 51.9% with consistent scaling and strong late-game teamfight. Ashe remains dependable at 51.7% — her utility and objective control make her an easy first pick. Nilah is the wild card at 52.3% in Emerald+, excelling in carry-heavy team comps. Caitlyn dominates lane against most matchups. Smolder rewards patience and scales into a late-game powerhouse.
Support
Thresh leads supports at 51.1% — his playmaking potential and flexibility make him the best support regardless of meta. Janna at 51.8% thrives in the current enchanter-friendly meta. Sona (51.8%) is a strong team healer and poke champion. Nami and Karma are slightly weaker after nerfs this patch — both still playable but no longer S-tier blind picks. Rell's buffs push her back toward viability as an engage support.
Patch 26.8 drops April 15th. The meta is expected to shift as Riot continues Act 2 balance work. We'll update this tier list when the patch goes live. Check individual champion pages for counter picks and matchup data.
