League of Legends Tier List Patch 14.14 Best League of Legends Champions to Climb with in Solo Queue

Welcome to the Mobalytics Predictive Tier List for League of Legends for Patch 14.14!

Are you ready for the Patch 14.14 Tier List by Mobalytics?

Our panel of experts has you covered for every role and rank.

For everybody else, we have prepared much more:

If you have any questions about our choices or process, ask us on Discord!

Now that you know the best champions for LoL, get the best champions for Teamfight Tactics with our TFT tier list or Wild Rift with our Wild Rift tier list.

We also have a best decks tier list for LoR and an agent tier list for Valorant.

Methodology TLDR:

• Our first tier list aimed at lower ELO, specifically Bronze up to high Plat/low Diamond. Our second tier list is for high ELO, aimed at Diamond 2 and above.
• Our experts curate these picks and are an indicator of the champion’s inherent strength when played at the highest level. For many of the user base, this information isn’t super relevant for their games but provides invaluable insight into the game itself.

Let’s say you’re debating between learning and climbing with Jax (A-tier | Simple) or Rengar (A-tier | Severe) – you’re going to want to go with Jax. Why? This is because Jax has a lower skill floor and would require less games to play at an A-Tier level in solo Queue. If you tried to pick up Rengar, you wouldn’t get the full value of A-tier until after about 15 matches of practice whereas with Jax, you would get that full 15 every time you play him.

Expert pick commentary

To see all the explanations for our expert picks and more, head to our tier list feature!

Top –Gwen

• Gwen has been a super strong pick in the top lane as a slightly different scaling AP Pick that can carry insanely hard in the later stages of the game.
• She might not be pickable every single game due to having some unfavourable matchups, but when the right draft pops up for her, you can destroy entire enemy teams with her insane AoE damage!

Jungle – Fiddlesticks

• Fiddlesticks has been pretty underrated for quite some time now and finally players are realizing that he’s actually super easy to carry with and actually much stronger than people give him credit for.
• He’s got easy and fast clears, he’s got fantastic CC and he’s one of the best counterganking junglers in the game from level 6 onwards!

Mid – Naafiri

• Naafiri might just have been buffed a little bit too hard as in recent weeks players have seriously been abusing her crazy damage and super high snowball potential.
• Naafiri is pretty easy to play in lane with her ability to bully lanes with Q’s and wolves and her all-in potential AND roaming are super strong too, so give her a go!

Bottom – Jinx

• Another patch without Jinx nerfs means she will continue to be one of the best AD Carries in the game, especially so across the board at most ranks.
• She’s one of the most popular champions in the game and can pretty much be played into any draft and team comp, and if you get ahead sooner rather than later you’ll be resetting your way through teams and melting them down in no time at all.
• There’s very few late game picks that can carry harder than a good Jinx and right now, she’s at her best.

Support – Seraphine

• Seraphine support has shot up those tiers in recent weeks and now she’s popping off as an S tier pick in the majority of ranks.
• Seraphine has solid poke and catch potential and fantastic scaling utility that allows her to slot into any draft really easily. Then also you have her game changing Ultimate which is what really makes the difference and makes her a TON of fun to play too!

Top – Tryndamere

• Tryndamere remains a super strong S tier pick in the top lane in high elo recently and will continue to terrorize games and lanes in Patch 14.14!
• There are not many better champions you can just put your teammates on your back and solo carry with than the King of the Rift. He’s got insane early damage, fantastic snowball potential and plenty of ways to carry games whether that’s flanking and diving backlines or split pushing and facemashing turrets on repeat!

Jungle – Lee Sin

• Lee Sin hasn’t exactly been weak recently but his recent buffs have definitely put him back into those top spots in high elo.
• He’s always been one of the most popular junglers in the game and those one tricks in at higher ranks are showing just how strong he can be in the right hands!

Mid – Talon

• Talon’s buffs recently saw him climb straight back up into the S tier and across every region players are proving just how strong this mid lane roaming machine can be, especially at higher ranks!
• He has insane mobility, burst damage and outplay potential and in the right hands there’s just so much you can do to carry games, even against all the odds.

Bottom – Kai’Sa

• Kai’Sa has been one of the most popular AD Carres at higher ranks recently and it’s not hard to understand why. She’s a fantastic blind pick, she works into all kinds of comps and drafts and always has a way to get a lead and use that lead to 1v9.
• She excels with both enchanters and engaging supports too, with famous combos like Kai’Sa and Rell or Nautilus being exceptionally hard to beat, and with her variety of build paths and options there’s always a way to set her up to carry every single game.

Support – Rell

• Rell is one of those champions you always forget about, but every time you see her you are reminded of just how strong she actually is.
• She has incredibly early engage and CC and can easily start dominating and diving bot lanes once she’s in the lead. She then translates into an initiating teamfighting monster throughout the course of the game and starts farming LP pretty damn easily!

Disclaimer #1: If a champion isn’t on our LoL Tier List, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t climb with them. You’ll just have to put in more effort to get similar results as our Optimal, Great, and Good choices for climbing.
Disclaimer #2: This list is meant to evaluate the champions that we believe are best for climbing Solo Queue. Although there can certainly be some overlap, we are NOT looking to name the champions that are the best in pro-play or organized, competitive 5-on-5. This is why champs that require a ton of team coordination such as Ryze, may not be included or ranked highly.

As always, we welcome all discussion and feedback.
