Patch 12.1 SoloQ Botlane tierlist
Added 2022-01-09 00:52:48 +0000 UTCSo not really alot of champions got directly changed during the patches in preseason, but alot of changes in general happend that are worth talking about.
Shieldbow + wits made you super tanky, they changed it a bit, in early game wits end isnt as tanky as it used to cus null magic instead of negatron cloak, and also when completed, still a good item but not as good of a rush item. You should still buy shieldbow in games where you need it, its just not a every game item onc hamps like aphelios for example.
With those 2 items being nerfed and people playing caitlyn again vayne should be a bit weaker, she is still very strong vs the bruisers topside but has worse matchups bot now, also people are playing lux support which means more cait type of lanes which vayne dont like.
Jinx didnt use the items that got nerfed and she does well vs the meta botlanes ( only one that can be a bit annoying is liek caitlyn or 2x range poke botlanes but even caitlyn lanes can be jinx favored if sup matchup is good ) so she goes up a tier.
People like to say that bully botlanes are stronger cus of TP changes, and sure it helps but i wouldnt say that caitlyn lux is meta because of TP changes, its a nice factor yes but in most soloq games you got tped on 1 time, and even thats rare tbh.
Aphelios down a tier, because of the more mage supports like lux being played his laning phase is alot harder, and for a hyper carry thats really bad. also his items wits end shieldbow is nerfed
Tristana down a tier, bad vs lux, bad vs caitlyn
Xayah down a tier, bad vs cait jhin jinx.
green = easy | blue = medium | red = hard
Comments
Conq vs First strike on ezreal? I imagine conq is still better but see a good bit of first strike so just curious
2022-01-13 20:12:21 +0000 UTCNo xerath for mages?
2022-01-12 03:58:57 +0000 UTCyes, no real mechanics except for his Q bounce long range, good mobility compared to other "immobile" champs very forgiving laning phase ( fleet, boots 4 pots )

2022-01-11 05:02:50 +0000 UTCIs Jhin actaully easy? I've been reluctant to pick him up in my pool because I was thinking he'd be pretty hard to learn but he seems pretty fun.
2022-01-10 23:19:00 +0000 UTCyes but its a worse seraphine lux unless u want early lane control

2022-01-10 00:42:37 +0000 UTCnot a very good champ atm. terrible lane and champs she likes to be on team with like naut, nocturne, akali etc isnt very godo atm

Veigar v2
2022-01-09 04:38:47 +0000 UTCtoo reliant on support matchup and her support champ in general, when paired with mages she is bad unless they can 1v2 lane

2022-01-09 04:37:01 +0000 UTCHopefully support list out today too :( , got happy when readed "botlane tierlist"
