League of Legends Patch 11.16 Top Lane Tier List
While Fiora and Tahm Kench are both receiving nerfs, players should expect for both champions to still be quite strong. Next up are champions in the B-Tier, who are still playable but not as strong as champions in the S-Tier.
B-Tier
- Renekton
- Jayce
- Gangplank
- Gnar
- Aatrox
All of Patch 11.16 B-Tier champions remain untouched in the patch notes, meaning these will all be stable champions for players to continue to utilize in the top lane. For people comfortable with these champions, they will still be great picks to win games on the next patch.
D-Tier
- Maokai
- Vladimir
- Gwen
- Akali
D-Tier champions for Patch 11.16 are champions players should look to avoid unless proven serious commitment and mastery of their kits. Maokai and Vladimir both receive buffs in Patch 11.16, but still look to be quite weak in the current meta's top lane lineup. Gwen remains untouched, a new champion that players are having a trouble picking up wins on.
