Strongest Positions Based on Top ELO

To be the best you must play like the best

Interested in what positions are the best to ascend to the top of the ELO ladder? Well let's check out the top 25 on the current solo queue ladder and work out some deductions from there. Since doublelift and chaox both have a smurf in the top 25, we'll extend the list to the top 27 positions in solo queue instead:

Chaox - AD Carry

Xpecial - AP Mid

ReginaId - AP Mid

Kramer121 - AP Mid

Xmithie - Jungle/AP Mid

MakNooN - Solo Mid/Top

Saruan - AP Mid/AD Carry

v8 Aphromoo - AD Carry

scarra - AP Mid

SilSol - Solo Top

BloodWater - Support

paroL - AD Carry

Doublelift - AD Carry

bebeisadog - AD Carry

Dyrus - Solo Top

Crs Pobelter - Solo Top

CruxBonder - AD Carry

Shan Huang * - AD Carry

Triplelift * - AD Carry

bigfatlp - AP Mid

MiSTakElolz - AD Carry

Jigaflow - AD Carry

Crs Cop - AD Carry

I Will Dominate - Jungle

A8000 - Solo Mid

Voyboy - Solo Top

Ehome Max - Solo Mid/Top

Note: Many of them play multiple roles (in solo queue) and thus the numbers add up to more than 27. Also, you'll also notice that I placed Xpecial (TSM's support) as a mid solo. The reason for this is that in solo queue, his main role of choice is mid solo.

In total:

AD Carry: 12 

AP Mid: 12

Jungle: 2

Top Solo:7

Support: 1

As you can see from the results, AD Carry and AP Mid seem to be the roles that dictate the majority of whether a team wins or loses in high elo. Meanwhile, it's also worth noting that it's still possible to get to the top 25 if you're maining Jungle or Support. It just means you'll have to be even better than usual if you want to make enough of a difference to reach the top charts.
