Cull pays back exactly what it costs, which means the entire argument comes down to one number almost nobody actually calculates.
The case against Cull is that you hand over 450 gold, farm 100 minions to get 450 gold back, and end up gaining almost nothing while your real item spike arrives minutes later. That argument is half right, and the half that's wrong is the part everyone repeats.
We ran the full ledger on Patch 26.14. Here's what the numbers actually say.
Getting a fresh account to level 30 takes roughly 40,000 account XP, and almost every guide still tells you to farm bot games and log in for your daily win. Both of those are wrong in 2026. Here is what actually moves the needle, with the real numbers behind it.
Type "faker" into Google and before you even hit enter, the results page politely suggests you probably meant "the unkillable demon king." That is not a joke someone slipped into the algorithm.

It took a full year and a half before Riot gave up trying to tune that idea and just deleted it instead.
Movistar KOI opened LEC 2026 Summer against G2 Esports with a bot lane nobody was expecting: Supa on Akali and Alvaro on Camille. Not a scrim stunt, not a troll pick in a dead rubber game. Game 1 of a real series, and it worked.
A bigger Death's Grasp, a hungrier ult, and one fewer true-damage nuke to worry about have turned Mordekaiser into the top lane's biggest problem.

Two straight patches of nerfs still haven't knocked Locke out of God Tier, and the ban rate proves nobody's willing to test that themselves.

Have you ever locked in, checked the enemy mid laner's profile, and found a 90% win rate 20 KDA, Faker-level monster? Then looked at your own team and wondered how anyone could call this a fair fight? You're not imagining it, and you're not the only one asking. Here is what is actually happening behind the scenes, explained without the jargon.
