How to cite

The statistics ggez.gg computes itself may be quoted, charted and republished, also commercially, under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence (CC BY 4.0). You do not need to ask first.

A citation that a reader can check has four parts:

  • the source, "ggez.gg", with a link to the page the figure is from
  • the patch or the date you read it
  • the filter: rank, role and server if you changed the default
  • the number of games behind the figure, printed next to it on the page

In a sentence: "[Champion] [role] wins [win rate] of her games in Emerald and above on patch [patch] (ggez.gg, [games] games, read [date])."

Not covered by the licence: Riot Games' art, names and trademarks, Leaguepedia's tournament data (CC BY-SA 3.0, cite Leaguepedia), LoL Esports photos, Twitch clips, and the profiles and match histories of individual players.

How the numbers are made is written down in the methodology.

Data on request

For a story we can cut the data differently than the site does: by server, rank, patch, champion or role, for ranked games, ARAM and Arena. Tell us the question and the deadline. If the sample is too small to answer it, we say so instead of sending a number.

Software can read the tier list and champion numbers directly through the MCP server or the REST API.
