yo guys, I was just wondering, does anyone know if req is still silver? I'm just asking because I haven't seen the topic brought up lately and I'd like to know if he's gold.

Maybe I don't know junglers that well, but to me, those three are in a class of their own really. Not trying to say you can only jungle one of them and nothing else, but they are exactly what you want in a jungler right now, and they fit the way the jungle works right now. They clear at least decently if not pretty well, and their ganks are terror.

I just look at the simplistic scenario of "what would be different if I had alistar over j4?" Sure, Alistar ganks are about on par with his ganks, maybe a bit better if you blow everything to try and get the kill. Plus if you can somehow get a flash>pulverize>headbutt on a carry or a high valued target, then Alistar is amazing, but I'm simply more afraid of a j4 engaging on me, because he can kill me almost by himself while building full tank, something cow really cannot do.

Same goes for Vi really, somewhat for Zac too.


I don't think it's clear they're a cut above. They're definitely top tier, but right now they're actually the 4th, 5th, and 6th most picked/banned junglers at Worlds. Teams are consistently picking Elise, Lee Sin, and Aatrox over them. If they were really that much better than everyone else there wouldn't be other contenders beating them out.

Don't get me wrong, I jungle Zac and J4 all the time. They're awesome junglers, but jungle is a big place and defining what's "best" is difficult

I'm just jelly. I wouldn't care if Zeronis didn't have to go and draw the S3 gold+ Elise.

Stupid Zeronis, it's not like I didn't follow you on DA before you joined Riot. Baka.

Hey guys,

In my spare time I wrote up a little script to count picks and bans. I made a little file containing all the data (more than I need) so I could do some extra analysis later if I wanted, but I'd like to share it in case anyone else wants to do their own analysis on it.

I made the file to be a nice, easily-parsed format. Each line has 10 tokens, separated by spaces. (spaces were stripped out of champion names that had spaces). First token is team, second token is result, next three are their bans, next five are their picks (in that order). Source is leaguepedia.

I want to point out wins/losses for champs don't necessarily mean all that much. Any champ that GG.EU or mineski chooses is probably going to lose regardless of whether they are OP or not, and vice-versa for the best teams at worlds (although the "best" is not as clear-cut).

Also keep in mind that regardless of what are the current OPs, there are also champs that are comfort picks for certain teams that they may pick frequently during worlds. Teams that have to fight through group stages will play many more games than teams that got seeded into the bracket stage, so group-stage teams that make it out of their group may have their comfort picks overrepresented compared to a seeded team's comfort picks.

Also, once it's clear that mineski/ggeu have no chance of making it out of their groups, they may try some unorthodox strategies...

Also you have to remember a team might pick a champ just to deny it from the enemy. So if that team loses that doesn't mean that champ was weak since it was strong enough for them to have to deny it after the ban phase.

He prob got lucky in his promos and ended up getting carried. Worked for me.

So Vi is VI because there is a X, uh? Yeah that was hinted at as soon as she was released anyway. It's full of pink! Which is different from punk.

Also don't get too eager to see the Chinese dragon. Remember when they announced they'd work on a Kumiho-based champ? That was a good 6 months before Ahri came out, at least. And they aren't even that deep in Ao Shin's design process.
