We rank all champions for League of Legends: Wild Rift into two tier lists. First is the best champions in the game, period and the second is the best champion for the five main roles: top, bottom (ADC), middle, support and jungle.
In coming up with our tier list, we weigh the common player solo queuing over group play. We also focus our S tier on the best hero to pick, regardless of other choices, based on the current meta to make it easy to know which character you can choose and know you’ll do a great job in that role with its specific tool kit.
At the end of the tier list we have the best devices to play LoL: Wild Rift on. These are going to likely be what you expect: the flagships for the top mobile brands Apple and Samsung, but we have some tips for some more budget aligned options and some non standard options like the ROG Phone 5.
Who to pick as first champion: When given the five heroes at the start, I’d go with Garen. Good all rounder, sturdy. You can also go with Jinx. Not a bad choice either. This only honestly applies to the tutorial match. You unlock all five afterwards, including if you skip. You can skip the tutorial by clicking the skip button at the top.
