How the The Boss page is built

Where the data comes from

This The Boss page is built from real ranked Teamfight Tactics matches pulled from the Riot Games API. Ladder games are sampled across regions and ranks, read, and filtered to the current set and patch. The item summary, the champions that build The Boss, and the comps shown all come from those games.

What this page shows

The summary at the top shows how boards holding The Boss perform, with the average placement, top 4 rate, win rate, and how often the item is built. Below it you see the champions that use The Boss the most, plus the strongest comps and popular items of the current set for context.

This The Boss data is a snapshot of the current meta and shifts with patches and balance changes. The best holder depends on your board and the components you find, so use it as a guide.
