Mid Lane tier list: the best heroes
The 29 heroes who play Mid Lane, ranked by the same rule as the main tier list: win and ban rates, all ranks combined.Learn more
- 29 heroes ranked
- Patch 2.2.16
How this ranking is calculated
The score is win rate + a quarter of the ban rate.
Win rate measures what a hero delivers once picked. Ban rate measures what players fear: it catches heroes too strong to be left open, whose win rate is misleadingly low because they're rarely available.
Pick rate isn't part of the calculation — it measures popularity, not power. It's only used to mark with an asterisk heroes played too rarely for their numbers to be stable.
The ↑ and ↓ arrows under the win rate show its change over seven days in this rank, when it reaches at least 0.2 points.

Tier C2
Playable, at a real cost compared to the alternatives.
A tier list measures how forgiving a hero is, not how far they can take you. A mastered C-tier hero beats an S+ hero picked up yesterday.
