LoL Arena Tier List – best champions for the 2v2v2v2 mode

After a week from its introduction to the public servers, here is our tier list for the 2v2v2v2 new game mode, LoL Arena.

LoL Arena Tier List champions

The must-play champions of LoL Arena

Ban Tier

These are the strongest champions in the game mode, currently. They are likely going to be banned in almost every lobby, but if they happen to be available, make sure to pick them up:

Taric
Master Yi
Karma
Kayle

Z tier

Below the ban tier, the Z-tier champions are going to have a relatively lower ban rate and are comparable in power to the ones above. If you want to greatly increase your chance of victory, it’s worth picking them up:

Heimerdinger
Syndra
Singed
Dr. Mundo
Ezreal
Cassiopeia
Fiora
Illaoi

S tier

These are also great champions worth playing. They aren’t likely going to be banned in champ select, so you will have the chance to play them very often:

Alistar

Kindred
Senna
Shyvana
Teemo
Zilean
Annie
Zyra
Mordekaiser
Riven
Brand
Zed
