SortFaded rows: pick rate under 2%

Only the top core 3-item combinations Tencent publishes are counted, so the pick rate reads lower than actual and win rates and shares lean toward the top. Streamer and pro builds are the 409 Chinese builds published by Tencent (excluding those with removed items).

How it is calculated

Pick rate is the sum over champions and lanes, and win rate is the average weighted by it. The lane breakdown and "Items in the same core" are shares of that sum. Match counts are not published, so every champion is weighted equally.

How This Is CountedTap for details

Unit prices from Wild Rift Gold Efficiency

Per-stat prices follow the coefficients of Wild Rift Gold Efficiency (changchiyou). Gold efficiency = total stat value ÷ price.

Overall = estimate incl. non-stat effects

The overall figure adds non-stat effects such as damage, healing and slows, priced as rough gold equivalents, on top of gold efficiency. It's an estimate, so it's shown apart from gold efficiency (which follows Wild Rift Gold Efficiency).

Combat only: 50%

Effects that only work in combat or under a condition are counted as active half the time. The same rule applies to every rune and spell.

Damage valued like healing

Damage to an enemy is valued like healing yourself the same amount, priced with the health regen rate.

Full Calculation

1Armor 40 × 25G= 1,000.0G
2Magic Resist 40 × 25G= 1,000.0G
3Health 300 × 3.33G= 999.0G
4Ability Haste 10 × 60G= 600.0G
5Total 3,599.0G ÷ 3,000G= 120%
6Overall (estimate): (stat value 3,599G + non-stat effects 2,161G) ÷ 3,000G= 192%

Non-stat effects (overall, estimate)

Anguish damage 18.9–72.66443〜717G

BasisAnguish deals 3% max HP magic damage to nearby enemies every 4s in combat with a champion (unaffected by item ability haste); since this repeats on a timer rather than an attack-trigger, it's counted at its natural 4-second interval rather than the 8-second minimum. 50% for combat-only

118.9–72.66 ÷ 4s interval × 5 × 50% uptime = 11.81–45.41 per 5s. 11.81–45.41 ÷ median base regen 8–19 = 148–239%. 148–239 × 3G= 443–717G

Anguish self-heal (250% of damage dealt) 47.25–181.651,107〜1,793G

BasisThe same proc heals 250% of the damage dealt (3% max HP * 250% = 7.5%); treated as a time-based repeating effect, same interval/uptime

147.25–181.65 ÷ 4s interval × 5 × 50% uptime = 29.53–113.53 per 5s. 29.53–113.53 ÷ median base regen 8–19 = 369–598%. 369–598 × 3G= 1,107–1,793G

Total 1,550–2,510G (level 1–15)
Match average: mean of levels 1–15 = 2,161G
