Patch 16.2 Guide
The most popular meta lines for the patch are included here. Use the tier list to see all lines. Tips for the patch:
- Early read on Patch 16.2: Emblem augments are good. Heavily consider clicking them, especially if you have no other clear options. They are closer in strength to full items than before so even if you can't get full value out of them, they are still useful.
- AP is much stronger this patch than last patch. AD feels like it is mostly limited to Bilgewater opener, strong Ionia opener with Jhin, maybe Vayne / Draven (noticeably weaker), and maybe Shadow Isles.
- The key ways to play AP are Ahri from orb, tempo Yordles with Teemo, and Demacia Sona opener. Void with Malzahar or Kog'Maw into Singed Seraphine is also an option, although this typically plays lose streak.
- Bard is stronger as an individual unit which may have brought Ixtal Reroll and Bard Sion back. However, you should probably not roll for Bard in your typical Fast 8 games anymore.
- Bilgewater is quite strong this patch. Consider playing around TF more often than Graves now as he was buffed and is noticeably stronger now. Can still play around Graves if that is better from your spot.

the size difference between recommended AP comps vs AD is crazy lol. It was fun watching the stream last night! Can’t wait to try some of these out on my alt account first lol
Is there any impression on vertical Noxus? Was also wondering if 3 star reroll noxus could be viable, with darius and leblanc as the carries
I’ve just play Noxus reroll (Darius Le blanc) it in Emerald 1, feels strongish, maybe not a top 1 cop but definetly an easy top 4 (i got 2nd against ryze) from a decently good noxus opener.
7 noxus or did you stay on 5?
Was wondering if something like this is playable: 0232e01732f34302503536b000000000TFTSet16

How come Lucian Kindred is moved all the way to B? With the TF buffs he’s a lot more stable early game, and the board caps just as well as it used to from what I’ve seen so far
Website is updated for Patch 16.2 — Patch is VERY different from last patch, so highly recommend studying a little before queuing if you care about your LP at all.
You’re such a goat dude, thank you!
