TopLane Tier List 26.8
Hey Friends,
Toplane tier lists have been updated according to the changes in the patch 26.8!
As there are no real changes or movement in the competitive, pro or high-low priority tier list I wanted to quickly brief you on the current trends that are happening in the high priority.
Due to karma nerfs, Rumble will remain even more locked in the pick or ban territory. Tank “fall-off” is still ongoing due to strong counter pick potential of champions such as Vayne. Players are pivoting even more to Gnar as their primary blind pick due to his ability to play every matchup.
Gnar has always been one of those champions that heavily depended on having a stable early laning phase to perform in the side lane (during mid game). He is an extremely versatile champion that can fit into any team composition that got a boost with the systemic changes introduced in the season 16 to minion spawn time (level 1 being easier) and homeguards (mistakes are not as punishing anymore).
Solo queue top lane tier list is practically unchanged in the patch 26.8. Enjoy this peace and quiet while it lasts. I will see you again in 2 weeks for the major shake ups once the 26.9 and season 2: Pandemonium drop!
Until next time o7.
