Top 5 most-played legends this week, sorted by volume. Win rates are only shown when a legend has at least five games logged.
Biggest riser: Poppy jumped from 0.0% to 41.7% (+41.7pp). Watch for Poppy to keep showing up in lineups if the trend holds.
Biggest faller: Leona dropped from 63.6% to 27.3% (-36.4pp). Might be a metagame adjustment or just a bad week — check again next Monday.
