Support Tier List For LoL Patch 13.15: These Are The Best Supports

3. Soraka

Soraka has returned! While some players may be pleased by her comeback, the majority is likely already frustrated by her presence. However, for the first time in several patches, an enchantment support has secured a spot in our top 3. Soraka fulfills all the expectations of an enchanter, particularly excelling in the healing aspect. Additionally, her silence field proves to be incredibly advantageous in teamfights or 2v2 situations on the bottom lane.

Her global healing ultimate ability has been the deciding factor in numerous games throughout the year, making it essential to have Antiheal whenever you face her. If you enjoy playing as her, it’s important to constantly keep an eye on the minimap to avoid being ambushed. In general, Soraka’s strength lies elsewhere and she lacks mobility, so it’s crucial to invest in wards and position yourself cautiously.

2. Rell

Since her mid-scope update, Rell has consistently wreaked havoc on Summoner’s Rift, whether she’s playing in the jungle or supporting her team. Despite the recent nerfs she received, she has managed to climb her way back to the top of the rankings. The current tank support meta suits her perfectly, and it seems like there’s no end in sight to her dominance as one of the best champions.

If you’re seeking a dependable choice for the support role, look no further than her. She excels against any adversaries and brings a wealth of engagement, defensive maneuvers, and durability to your team. When it comes to a reliable frontline option, she is the ultimate choice.

1. Rakan

Rakan retains his top spot on our support tier list! Similar to Rell, he brings valuable crowd control and engaging capabilities. While he may not possess the same level of tankiness as Blitzcrank or Nautilus, his exceptional mobility and additional heals and shields for his teammates more than make up for it.

Effective timing and communication play a crucial role when playing as Rakan. Prioritize using smart pings to communicate your intentions before engaging and maintain constant contact with your bot laner. This becomes even more significant when paired with Xayah as your carry. Rakan truly shines in teamfights, particularly with his ultimate ability – The Quickness, which never fails to captivate both foes and onlookers.

The Support Tierlist for Patch 13.16

After analyzing the S-Tier champions in LoL Patch 13.16, it’s time to explore the current standings of your other beloved champions. Which of these picks do you primarily play as your main?

Who Are Our A-Tier Support Champions?

The A Tier is highly regarded as exceptional, comprising champions that are effortlessly effective in winning games. These are the ones you should opt for when the S Tier champions are unavailable due to bans. If your goal is to advance in solo queue, then selecting these picks in the current patch will greatly benefit you.

Champion Win Rate Pick Rate
Xerath 51.13% 8.22%
Thresh 50.26% 13.72%
Blitzcrank 50.82% 8.61%
Nautilus 50.04% 12.40%
Zyra 52.00% 5.30%
Pyke 50.92% 7.92%
Alistar 50.88% 7.88%
Maokai 52.93% 2.23%
  • Looking for a fresh headset? Opt for the Logitech K/DA Wireless Gaming Headset!

Currently, the support meta showcases remarkable versatility. Xerath stands out as a potent damage-focused support in the A-Tier, while engage and hook supports continue to excel. Additionally, certain enchanters have regained their popularity in the meta. Despite Maokai’s seemingly underwhelming statistics, we highly recommend giving him a chance.

You may be surprised by the results.

Who Are Our B-Tier Support Champions?

The B-Tier encompasses champions that possess decent abilities, but lack the same level of power as those in the A- or S-Tier. It is advised to select these champions for particular matchups, but it is recommended to thoroughly master them beforehand.

Champion Win Rate Pick Rate
Janna 51.30% 4.33%
Sona 51.54% 3.67%
Braum 51.54% 3.64%
Leona 50.60% 5.61%
Karma 49.16% 9.68%
Senna 50.42% 5.27%
Lux 49.54% 7.12%
Taric 52.32% 1.58%

Senna possesses a well-rounded skill set, excelling in damage, poke, and healing. Additionally, her ultimate ability, Dawning Shadow, grants her influence across the entire map. However, her lack of mobility is her sole weakness. Nevertheless, Senna’s scaling throughout the game is impressive, so it is crucial to remain composed and liberate the Mist Wraiths you encounter to enhance your statistics.

You should consider giving our Taric a try as he is a formidable support, despite being placed in the B-Tier due to his limited popularity.

Who Are Our F-Tier Support Champions?

We strongly recommend disregarding these champion picks in the current patch. Their win rates are extremely low or they have been significantly weakened in the recent update. Therefore, it is crucial to avoid selecting these champions under any circumstances.

Champion Win Rate Pick Rate
Renata 49.53% 1.27%
Pantheon 46.78% 1.54%
Twitch 49.51% 0.67%

STOP. PLAYING. TWITCH. SUPPORT.

Thank you.

If you’re searching for a strong poke/engage support, it’s best to avoid Pantheon for now, with the exception of Twitch. Additionally, Renata is currently experiencing her weakest state since being introduced to the game. The combination of numerous nerfs, a challenging gameplay style, and limited mobility has landed her at the bottom of the tier list. Furthermore, it seems that hardly anyone chooses to play her.

Aside from marksmen, Milio and Yuumi are also struggling following their nerfs, which can be attributed to their decline in popularity in professional play. However, there is some good news as Milio has received a buff in the recent patch. We are hopeful that this will help improve his position in our upcoming tier list update.

Do you agree with the ranking of these support champions in LoL Patch 13.16, considering whether your favorite has been underrated or overrated?
