Best Supports in LoL: Support Tier List

The best supports to climb with as of 6 October 2026 are Leona, Taric, Braum and Thresh, the four picks in our S tier. Taric posts the highest win rate in the role at 52.8%, while Thresh is the most played S-tier support with 143,334 games.

We ranked 1,248,724 ranked support games from our champion stats: each win rate is shrunk toward the average by sample size, a small pick-rate bonus is added, and picks under 1,000 games or played mainly in another role are left out. The list is refreshed every patch, so pair it with the best ADCs when you plan your bot lane.

Every support with enough ranked games is placed below, S through D. Within a tier, picks run in score order, so a higher win rate can sit behind a lower one when its sample is smaller.

Volume does not guarantee a high tier. Lux is the most played support on the whole list with 161,978 games, yet her 50.0% WR lands in B tier. The reverse holds too: Soraka’s 51.4% WR is the best in A tier, but she trails Nami and Seraphine on score because they carry more games.

The bottom of the list is clear-cut. Yuumi, Camille and Mel form D tier, and Camille’s 44.5% WR comes from the smallest sample on the list, 12,450 games, so treat her number with the most caution. Open any pick on our champion pages for more detail before you lock it in.

S tier holds the four supports whose win rates stay above 51% on samples large enough to trust, from Taric’s 19,673 games to Thresh’s 143,334. Pick from here when you want the strongest numbers in the role on a champion you have already played.

A tier is the deepest pool of reliable picks: eight supports between 50.8% and 51.4%, two of them on more than 100,000 games. Choose from here when an S-tier pick is banned or does not fit your team, and you give up very little on the numbers.

B tier is the largest group, 16 supports from 49.3% to 51.2%, mixing very popular picks with niche ones. These are solid choices for a player who knows them, but they win slightly less often than the tiers above.

C tier supports win slightly under half their games, from 48.0% to 49.5%. Pick from here only on a champion you have mastered, and expect to work harder for the same results.

D tier holds the three supports with win rates under 48%, the lowest in the role. Avoid these in ranked unless you are a dedicated one-trick on the champion.

Use the tiers to shape your champion pool, not to override it. A B-tier support you know well will usually serve you better than an S-tier pick you are learning in ranked, so start from comfort and use the list to decide what to add next.

Then read champ select. If the enemy bot lane is already locked, pick the support from your pool that suits your ADC and the lane you face. If your team has no engage, Leona or Braum fills that gap; if it lacks sustain and peel, enchanters such as Nami or Soraka give it more.

Tiers shift between refreshes, so check the latest patch notes for changes to your main. Support play is tied to your jungler’s pathing, and the best junglers list shows which partners are strongest right now. To see these champions in high-elo hands, follow streamers and pro players.
