Before going into Quarterfinals, I looked back at the group stage and how the teams adpat after the first week. To do so, I looked at the 5 most contested champions by lane between Week 1 and Week 2.

Numbers are Picks(Bans), the green bar under the champion icon is showing the win rate.

Top Lane

“Just a yordle with a hammer.”

Poppy get more popular in week 2. Strong champion overall: really hard to completely shutdown. It’s also a good answser to Jayce.

Jungle

Olaf is a good choice against Elise. With poor result in week 1, Rek’Sai is not a scary champion anymore.

Mid Lane

Aurelion Sol was banned half of Week 1, so it’s not a surprise he was more seen in Week 2.

20 bans for Syndra: We have seen how much she can be dominant in the right hand (the champion averaged +18.8CS at the 15 min mark).

AD Carry

Long range AD carry for Week 2. Overall the teams used a more tanky frontline, which offer more protection to “low mobility” champion like Caitlyn and Jhin.

Support

More tanky support in Week 2. Despite offering a good laning, Nami wasn’t picked a lot in Week 2, I think mostly due to her poor roaming ability.
