The first major tournament of the year in League of Legends is over. There, a champion dominated who is considered among the worst for all other players.
What was this tournament about? The First Stand 2026 is the first stop for a competition of the best international teams in LoL. There, the currently strongest teams compete for a prize pool of 1 million dollars. The winner receives 250,000 dollars.
The final was won by Bilibili Gaming, who managed to beat G2 Esports 3-1 (lol.fandom.com).

According to leagueofgraphs.com, Yunara is currently one of the worst champs and ADCs in the game. With a win rate of just over 48%, she is at the bottom of the list of all champs in most ranks. Among players in the Master rank and above, she is currently ranked 29th out of 34 as an ADC (as of March 25, 2026, at 10:40 AM).
