Who actually shows up

How often each unit appeared on a board playing this comp, and how those boards placed. A unit in nearly every board is the comp; one in half of them is a flex slot.

Augments

Riot’s match data does not say which augments players took, so there is no augment win rate here and none is invented. Each line pairs what the augment grants with something measured about this comp: 0 are a real placement comparison, the rest say whether the augment suits how this comp actually plays. Augments we can tie to nothing are not listed, and the app behaves identically.
