Jayce Allowed Through
In the first week, LCK teams banned Jayce in every game. Jayce was allowed through four times during Week 2. On every occasion, teams did not hesitate pick him. That saw his ban rate drop from 100% to 92.16% after two weeks of competition. Jayce had middling results, seeing two wins and two losses in his four games.
Malphite Takes Jayce’s Spot
Malphite has become the champion that teams permanently ban in the LCK. He had a 100% ban rate during the second week. Despite this, he has the second-highest ban%, narrowly behind Jayce. His ban rate is 90.20%. Rumble is in third place, nearly 10% lower than Malphite.
Ryze Most Picked Champion
No champions had a 100% series pick rate in the first week of the LCK Cup. That was different in Week Two. Ryze appeared in every series. He has become a high-priority champion. His scaling with Actualizer, roam potential, and side-lane threat is a must for teams. Corki, Jarvan IV, Taliyah, Vi, Xin Zhao, and Yunara got picked in eight of the ten series.
