Rare picks with few games

These champions have fewer than 100 games in Jungle on this patch. That is too few for a tier and a reliable win rate, so they are listed without numbers.

How the Jungle tier list is built

Where the data comes from

The Jungle tier list is built from real ranked solo queue matches. Players are sampled across regions and ranks, their recent games are read and filtered to the current patch, and every champion played in Jungle is aggregated by win rate, pick rate, and ban rate.

How the ranking works

Each Jungle champion is rated on two numbers. The win rate is its wins divided by games, and the pick rate is how often it is picked in Jungle compared to all Jungle games. Both numbers feed one score where win rate weighs the most and pick rate adds a little, and the letter depends on the champion's place in that score among all Jungle champions, from S+ for the best to D for the weakest.

These Jungle placements are a snapshot of the current patch and move with balance changes and sample size. A champion can still beat its tier in the right matchup or in skilled hands.
