Take Leona's line, for example:

Champion OR p-value
Leona 0.9285 0.0001 *

The OR is the effect of having Ashe on one side and Leona on the other side, AFTER ADJUSTING FOR OVERALL WIN RATE FOR ASHE AND LEONA. In this case, we are seeing that when Ashe is on one side and Leona is on the other, Ashe wins 92.85% as often (7% less often), after adjusting for overall power of Ashe and Leona.

The p-value is for statistical significance. If you know what p-values are you should know what this means. I made the cut-off to be p < 0.01 to control FDR. I have marked the ones with p < 0.01 with an *.

What is this adjustment business? Recall, for example, Amumu has close to 55% win rate overall. Therefore, if you stick Ashe against Amumu, you will expect Ashe to lose a lot more often simply because "Amumu is OP", not because Amumu is strong against Ashe specifically. The adjustments are made to minimize this effect; in this case, I am saying after factoring in the power levels of Ashe and Leona individually, Ashe still loses 7% more often when Leona is on the other side - this suggests Leona counters Ashe quite hard.



Out of curiosity, could you do this for Veigar? I know that gragas/zed are considered the hardest counters vs him, and hes considered to counter Ahri, but it would be interesting to see what the data says.


Why does specifically gragas counter him?


Mostly the lane, gragas can just push/bully you/kill you under tower really easily, his ult basically kills you if you dont have flash, and hes too tanky/has too much sustain to poke down then burst.

Gragas has also been relevant in the pro scene longer than any other champion in the game (that I can think of). He fell off a little bit during season 2 around Worlds iirc 'cause Anivia and Oriana were so strong then, but honestly he's been extremely relevant since Season 1.

Like, I think the direction Riot's taking with their Gragas rework is kinda dumb and the justifications for some of the changes are stupid (ult people into Q is like..pure luck, maybe 10% skill) but given Riot's track record and Gragas's record a nerf/rework is not unexpected at all.

While I know live balance and champion production are two separate team, I think I much preferred it when Riot was busy releasing a champion every couple of weeks.

They were so preoccupied with that schedule it gave them less time to think about how they could mess around with other champions via 'reworks'.

I wonder what would happen in a world where, once every two weeks, every champions whose pick rate (or win rate) surpassed ~30% (or 53%) would automatically got a small nerf (.1 ratio or small cd changes or something) and the opposite for if it fell below 2% pickrate/47% winrate.

Just have a group of people who would choose which part of the kit to nerf/buff so it wasn't totally useless buffs.

obviously it would be a bit impractical, and some champs would get a bit wrecked, and pro play might get wonky, but it would definitely be interesting.

Rengar, Karma, and Syndra still have low pick rates. I don't think Riot should buff them.

At least they're doing something I suppose. Gragas can't really hang around the way he currently is. But then again, after Xerath was slaughtered (identity wise, still salty, jimmies still rustled), I'm worried whenever Riot says rework.

The overall direction seems for Gragas seems... sound imo.

Naniwa with the mad respect for Faker and for League's skill cap in his interview with Thorin. Naniwa's been playing League lately too.

Neato.

OK guys, I got a set of results from Eiii's data.
+ Show Spoiler +

I am currently examining Ashe, and how her win rate is affected by other champions. The TL;DR version is that Ashe loses a lot to Leona and LeBlanc, while wins a lot against Kassadin (!!!)

Actual results below, as well as how to read the table.

Take Leona's line, for example:

Champion OR p-value
Leona 0.9285 0.0001 *

The OR is the effect of having Ashe on one side and Leona on the other side, AFTER ADJUSTING FOR OVERALL WIN RATE FOR ASHE AND LEONA. In this case, we are seeing that when Ashe is on one side and Leona is on the other, Ashe wins 92.85% as often (7% less often), after adjusting for overall power of Ashe and Leona.

The p-value is for statistical significance. If you know what p-values are you should know what this means. I made the cut-off to be p < 0.01 to control FDR. I have marked the ones with p < 0.01 with an *.

What is this adjustment business? Recall, for example, Amumu has close to 55% win rate overall. Therefore, if you stick Ashe against Amumu, you will expect Ashe to lose a lot more often simply because "Amumu is OP", not because Amumu is strong against Ashe specifically. The adjustments are made to minimize this effect; in this case, I am saying after factoring in the power levels of Ashe and Leona individually, Ashe still loses 7% more often when Leona is on the other side - this suggests Leona counters Ashe quite hard.



Out of curiosity, could you do this for Veigar? I know that gragas/zed are considered the hardest counters vs him, and hes considered to counter Ahri, but it would be interesting to see what the data says.


I can, but currently it takes ~1 hour to compute for a particular champion and I am already doing a pretty big batch. Also, Veigar is not too popular, which makes things tricky.

I'll run it once my current batch is done.

Gragas has also been relevant in the pro scene longer than any other champion in the game (that I can think of). He fell off a little bit during season 2 around Worlds iirc 'cause Anivia and Oriana were so strong then, but honestly he's been extremely relevant since Season 1.

Like, I think the direction Riot's taking with their Gragas rework is kinda dumb and the justifications for some of the changes are stupid (ult people into Q is like..pure luck, maybe 10% skill) but given Riot's track record and Gragas's record a nerf/rework is not unexpected at all.

I think I'd get rid of the Q AS slow (removes a bit of top lane viability). I'd also lower ratios on his R. Not base damage. His ult is currently mostly used for damage and not displacement (which fits with the meta of no AOE comps, just deleting champs one at a time).

But what's more important imo is that Athene's > Deathcap is always the buildpath you go for (with maybe a armguard inbetween for Kha/Zed matchups). This buildpath favours Gragas immensely. Make sustain damage mages more favourable (buffing WotA, Abyssal, Liandry) and you'll see Gragas being less dominant.

Pretty sure that Graves buff will make him retarded good botlane without the severe drop off from someone face tanking his ult
