Methodology
- Confidence-adjusted rankingRows sort on delta shrunk toward zero by sample size, so a thin result cannot outrank a measured one.
- What the delta meansDelta is how far the opponent sits from their OWN overall win rate in this matchup — not their strength, and not ours.
- Where the figures come fromRiot publishes no win rate. Every percentage here is derived in this build and carries the sample it was derived over.
