Given the significant meta shifts with each patch, some champions start climbing up the ranks, whilst others become subpar. League of Legends is constantly changing its focus in terms of gameplay, and with frequent balance adjustments, some champions stick out more due to their kit.

With that in mind, we will take a look at the best mid lane champions you can pick in 25.10 (15.10) to win as many games as possible.

Tier List Explanation

LoL Patch 25.S1.1 (15.1) Tier List - Best Top Lane Champions
Riot Games

This tier list will examine some of the most-played League of Legends champions in the mid lane. Keep in mind that this is for Emerald+ divisions. 

  • S-Tier: The best champions you can use to ensure you are always victorious.
  • A-Tier: Great options but lacking just slightly either in terms of damage or utility.
  • B-Tier: Viable and reliable in most situations, you can manage rather decently.

NOTE: Although this tier list strives to be as objective as possible in terms of viability, you should not limit yourself to strictly adhere to this list, but rather experiment and see which champion feels fun to play with.

S-Tier Mid Lane Champions

Katarina
Katarina

Katarina has a tendency to stomp champions that do not have enough lockdown, making her quite the volatile pick, especially against squishier comps.

Annie
Annie

Annie is surprisingly simple to play, and yet has skyrocketed in terms of relevance due to her passive magic pen changes. 

Xerath
Xerath

If Hwei seems too difficult for you, then Xerath is the next best thing. Not only is his damage relevant throughout the game, but his skillshots are a tad easier to use, especially for a barrage-type mage. 

Vex
Vex

Vex is incredibly good for a skirmish-heavy comp, given your all-in potential with your ult.

Malzahar
Malzahar

Malzahar is incredibly annoying to lane against due to his kit giving you prio consistently, thus allowing you to roam post-level six. 

Galio
Galio

If Chovy has inspired you to pick up Galio, then make sure to flex on your enemies by being a roaming monster that can easily swing the tide of team fights in your favor.

Lux
Lux

Simple, effective and fun, Lux has it all, granted you land your skillshots. Although her damage is not as great in terms of scaling, you can easily burst down enemy carries. 

Talon
Talon

Talon is picking up the pace in terms of his ranked relevancy so if you are looking for a roaming assassin, give him a try and parkour your way to victory.

A-Tier Mid Lane Champions

Qiyana
Qiyana

Qiyana is doing relatively fine as an assassin, although you could struggle during the laning phase so make sure to take advantage of every little mistake you can. 

Lissandra
Lissandra

Lissandra excels in locking down vulnerable targets whilst also offering flexibility as an all-in zoning champion that can deal moderate team fight damage.

Taliyah
Taliyah

Taliyah is excellent against extremely mobile champions due to her kit denying any engage from the get-go.

Vel'Koz
Vel'Koz

Vel'Koz is doing alright, despite lacking in damage, your poke can be quite substantial around objectives.

Cho'Gath
Cho'Gath

Cho'Gath is a niche pick given how easily mid laners can abuse their range, but your sustain and tankiness more than compensate for your early game struggles.

Pantheon
Pantheon

Pantheon is a roaming god that excels in short skirmishes, making you quite the adversary should you get lane priority. 

Cassiopeia
Cassiopeia

Cassiopeia is great at zoning enemies, and her late game damage can be quite deadly, especially against short-ranged comps. 

Kassadin
Kassadin

Kassadin scales so hard into the late game, and can offer a lot of support around objectives, especially if he manages to find a flank angle.

B-Tier Mid Lane Champions

LeBlanc
LeBlanc

LeBlanc is slowly declining in pick rate, but she still has a lot of burst damage and mobility.

Fizz
Fizz

Fizz can be very annoying to deal with, but he struggles to navigate team fights due to his very squishy nature.

Corki
Corki

Corki is a reliable pick if your team lacks poke and AD, but you will need good positioning to avoid getting dying from an all in. 

Ahri
Ahri

Ahri is seeing some success, not due to her damage, but reliable skirmishing power and sustained damage the longer a team fight continues.
