LoL: Support Tier List For Patch 14.14
Do you want to make fancy plays or are you happy empowering your bot lane friend? We have a champion for every occasion on our support tier list for League of Legends patch 14.14!
This League of Legends patch didn't have too many support changes, with the biggest update coming to none other than Milio who has had some of his surefire and easy damage and shielding weakened, but his skill expression increased. Will this have any effect on the current state of the support lineup, though?
That's what we will find out to see the best support champions in LoL Patch 14.14.

Support Tier List For LoL Patch 14.14: These Are The Best Supports
3. Poppy
Poppy is one of the best supports in the meta right now. She has a solid 53.93% win rate right now.
Build:
With Poppy, you'll want to go for Dead Man's Plate first and then get Warmog's Second. That's why she is in the OP tier, since she is not as affected by the Warmogs nerfs this patch as other melee tank supports. Third item, you have the choice between Locket of the Iron Solari, Thornmail or Force of Nature, depending on your opposing team.
Powerspikes:
Poppy is decent early, but she truly shines in the late game. She is a great frontline champion. Once you hit level 2 make sure to go all-in on your opponents, so you can get the upper hand in lane. She doesn't spike at level 6 like most others, so just make sure to keep getting as much money so she can be as tanky as possible.
Counters:
When playing Poppy, avoid Taric at all costs. He's just as tanky and his stun can ruin your day. Not to mention that awful ultimate of his.
Good Synergy:
Senna is a great champion to pair with Poppy. You have enough CC and sustain to be able to win any match and duel, and both champions truly shine in the late game.
2. Leona
Leona is one of the best support champions in the meta right now. She's great early and has insane potential as an engage support, and with a win rate of 52.41% that's pretty obvious.
Build:
Since Warmogs has been nerfed, you'll want to go for a new first item. Warmog's rush on support is over this patch, but Leona continues to be a strong pick. Get Locket of the Iron Solari and then go for Warmog's second.
For added security and to incorporate anti-heal into your kit, consider Thornmail as a third item. This will provide extra defense and counter any healing from opponents.
Powerspikes:
Leona shines brightest in the early and mid game. She’s got one of the best level 2 powerspikes, so look for aggressive plays to get your bot laner ahead. In mid game, group up for objectives and fights. Your ultimate is clutch for initiating team fights around this time.
Counters:
Soraka and Janna are top picks against Leona. They can outrange her and play from a distance, constantly healing and shielding their team. This can be super frustrating when you’re trying to dive in with Leona.
Good Synergy:
Leona pairs perfectly with Nilah or Jinx. Both champs excel in early game skirmishes, which is right up Leona's alley. Nilah, being a melee champ herself, is especially great at getting up close and personal with enemies, making her an ideal partner for Leona's aggressive playstyle.
1. Nami
Nami is one of the best champions in the game right now, and she is dominating the bot lane with a win rate of 50.80%.
Build:
Nami fits the enchanter role perfectly. Start with Imperial Mandate to enhance mana regeneration and add slows. Next, opt for Shurelya's Battlesong to significantly increase your teammates' movement speed.
For the third item, the choice can vary based on game conditions, but Ardent Censer is highly effective and advised when supporting an AD bot laner.
Powerspikes:
Nami reaches a significant power spike at level 6. Her ultimate unleashes a massive wave that can enhance her team's offensive capabilities or provide an escape route by boosting hit enemies. Coupled with her Q, she can create a stunning combo that immobilizes enemies for a prolonged period.
Counters:
Nami has a tough time against Shaco, as do most champions. His troublesome boxes can inflict significant damage, and his ability to turn invisible allows him to sneak up on you with ease.
Good Synergy:
Nami and Nilah make a formidable pair, capable of overpowering opponents in both close and ranged combat. This synergy ensures they are a potent duo throughout the entire game.
Support Tier List For LoL Patch 14.14
Now that we've covered some of the S-Tier champions in LoL Patch 14.14, let's take a look at where some of your other favorite champions stand. Which of these picks is your main?
Who Are Our A-Tier Support Champions?
The A-Tier is still considered excellent. These are champions that you can easily pick and still win games. They're the ones you'll want to choose when the S Tier champions are banned. So if you want to climb solo queue, then these are some picks you'll want to pick up this patch.
| Champion | Win Rate | Pick Rate |
Nautilus | 49.12% | 12.79% |
Thresh | 50.26% | 12.06% |
| Zyra | 50.19% | 3.42% |
| Braum | 51.40% | 8.34% |
Alistar | 49.99% | 6.56% |
| Rell | 52.34% | 5.45% |
| Sona | 50.85% | 2.31% |
| Janna | 52.18% | 4.70% |
Engage supports are dominating in LoL Patch 14.14. Sure, Sona, Janna, and Zyra are around, but tanks are ruling the meta right now. If Leona is banned, Nautilus is a great pick with awesome CC. You might not be able to rush Warmogs like before, but engage supports are back in the meta right now, so make sure to try them.
Who Are Our F-Tier Support Champions?
These are the picks we advise you to forget about this patch. Either their win rates are abysmal or they were nerfed in the patch. So make sure to avoid picking these champions at all costs.
Champion | Win Rate | Pick Rate |
| Renata Glasc | 45.68% | 1.22% |
| Ashe | 43.20% | 1.50% |
Skarner | 44.98% | 0.17% |
| Zac | 47.51% | 0.70% |
| Pantheon | 49.20% | 1.53% |
| Swain | 48.14% | 1.38% |
Renata Glasc has fallen off. It could be because players don't know how to properly utilize her, or the meta just isn't in her favor right now, with her being the perfect anti-dive champion. We do expect her to get some love from Riot if she continues to have such low win rates.
Make sure to never be that cruel to your ADC to pick one of these, and you'll climb.
These are the best, and worst, support champions in LoL Patch 14.14. What do you think? Did we place your fave champion too low… or maybe even too high?
