with a net 5008 games pick or banned compared to Ryze's 4963, with a full 370 games this split more that she was picked or banned than Ryze. However, LB has been played in almost 600 less games than Ryze, making it up in the ban department.

Gragas is almost making moves to push Ryze down to 3rd, gragas is only 50 games behind Ryze on the all time presence list, and considering that Ryze buffs are at least a month out in pro play, even if the ryze buffs return him to pick/ban Gragas will almost certainly lap ryze, at least for a little bit.

Other all time Fun Facts

the most pick champion since S4 is braum with 3477 games played, holding a lead by 172 picks on gragas, with Thresh in third

LB is the most banned champion since S4 with 582 more bans than the next closest competitor ryze. 3rd place is Kalista.

Braum has won more pro games than any other champion, but with a narrow 13 game lead over Gragas. Gragas meanwhile has a 364 game lead over Thresh at 3rd.

Partially as a result of their pick rates, Braum and Grag are also the most losing champions in pro play with a 99 game gap. The third place however is the surprise appearance of Ezreal, albeit with a 467 game gap between him and Grag. Ezrael has 728 games played less than Gragas

Asol has the highest win rate of any champion in pro play at 60%, followed by Zed and Aphelios at 58%. However, ASol has only been played in about 1% of pro games ever, with Zed at 3% and Aphelios at 2%.

Since we like talking about new champions: the highest all time win ratios currently have Aphelios at 3rd, Qiyana at 4th, and Senna at 5th,

Yuumi has the highest KDA of any champion in pro play with 5.8, but actually only has a 48% win rate. This compared to 2nd place Senna who averages a 5.6 KDA but a 56% win rate.

Xayah and Kasia have the highest CS per min at 10.0 and 9.9 respectively.

The highest DPM champions are Xerath, Ziggs, and Ezrael.

All champions have seen some pro play since s4. The least any champion has been played in pro play is Tryndamere at 2 games, one of which was this season (a loss), but the other one was actually during s3 worlds. GamerGear with NBS on trydnamere defeated TSM during a meme game in which Regi played Teemo and role swapped with Wildturtle, and xpecial and dyrus role swapped.

all stats are from gamesoflegends, which only tracks up to s4 specifically but does seem to track some limited stats before then.

Yes, this also applies to Katarina, although its worth mentioning that conqueror is also pushing her beyond the limit at the moment because its a terribly designed rune. Difference is at least Riot stuck to their guns and kept the Kat rework when it made her healthier instead of reverting it like Leblanc.

Reworked LeBlanc was Akali before Akali...
