Mordekaiser
Patch 7.2d raised Darkness Rise's magic penetration at rank 4 from 7% to 12% and shortened Death's Grasp's cooldown at every rank. In the first sample after the patch his win rate rose 1.6 to 2.6 points in every bracket and his pick rate 5.6 to 6.3 points. His rating rose in every bracket in that same sample.

Malphite
Patch 7.2e buffed his armor growth, Seismic Shard's slow and Thunderclap's damage all at once. In the first sample after the patch his win rate rose by 2.0 to 3.4 points in every bracket, and ratings that had been A or B all moved up in that sample. His ban rate was already high before the buff, so the upgrade landed on a champion players were already wary of. Patch 7.3a (September 29) later cut the Armor ratio on Thunderclap and Ground Slam and added 10 seconds to his ultimate's cooldown.

Among champions with at least a 2% pick rate in both pools, the three largest gaps in each direction. Below 2%, too few games are played and win rates swing from one pull to the next, so they are left out.

How the Tiers Are Decided
This tier list is built on the official China-server stats page for Wild Rift. A tier is not a win rate: it maps the in-role strength ranking onto a six-step scale.
Tiers are cut by rank within a role
In every role the top two champions are OP, ranks 3-6 are S, 7-11 are A, 12-18 are B, 19-25 are C and everything below is D. Because the measure is relative, two champions on the same tier in different roles cannot be compared directly.
Win rate and tier do not line up
The ranking is the official China-server rating, not a win-rate order. Across all roles in the Master and above snapshot, the highest win rate belongs to Rammus (Jungle) at 57.6%, sitting at Tier B on a 5.1% pick rate.
The most banned champion is Nocturne (Jungle): banned in 68.2% of games on a 55.3% win rate, at Tier OP. A champion banned that often is one you frequently cannot play, so line up a second pick before you invest in learning it.
To rank purely by win rate, switch the sort. Tier boundaries stay put and only the order inside each tier changes. Master and above is shown by default; switch brackets to see how other groups of players fare.
Stats come from the official China-server page for Wild Rift, dated 13 October 2026. Patch timing and balance changes may differ from the global version.
