Commentary and Takeaways
Darius

Darius is the most banned champion in patch 15.6. Of course, that's understandable because he's pretty difficult to lane against. He's really aggressive and he can snowball the whole game easily. Should we even mention his passive bleed damage and healing from his Q?
Yasuo

This time Yasuo is part of both charts. He's a high-risk, high-reward champion. He's difficult to play against and difficult to play with. You know the saying about the Yasuo player on your team... there are a lot of reasons to ban him and a lot of reasons to pick him. The king of mobility and blocking abilities is a menace, especially in low elo.

Miss Fortune

MF is easy to pick up and master, making her the perfect and reliable choice for new players. Her Make It Rain (E) gives you strong poke and zoning, while Bullet Time (R) is a game-changer. Her build choices are also very versatile.
Nocturne

Nocturne represents the junglers amongst the most banned LoL champs. We get it. Something about his Ult leaves you feeling vulnerable, unable to tell if you're in danger especially if you're a new or low elo player. His fear and spell shield make him difficult to beat.

Thresh

We've added Thresh to the most-played list because Jinx and Jhin basically have the same stats. Thresh is the most popular support, thanks to his huge playmaking potential. He also brings unmatched utility by saving teammates on the Summoner's Rift. His mix of crowd control, engage, and peel makes him a top-tier support in almost any meta.
Lee Sin

Lee Sin is the most-played jungler in LoL once again. He offers mobility, fun mechanics, and good outplay potential. He's great with aggressive early ganks that can win the game early on.
There you have it - the most popular and most avoided champions in patch 15.6. We'll keep an eye on these League of Legends champion stats for you, so tune back in soon!
