The second split of the LTA Sul (League of The Americas) group stage wraps up this Sunday. The tournament has seen some interesting picks and bans throughout the weeks. The Pichau Arena team has crunched the numbers to reveal the most popular League of Legends champions.
The fearless pick and ban format was used in this stage. This means teams could only choose champions that hadn’t been picked before. As a result, teams needed a diverse range of options to avoid being left without a champion.
