Stuck in Archon? What separates it from Legend
Not tips from memory: the median Archon and the median Legend, measured on real ranked games. The row that moves most is where a game at Archon is usually lost.
As a core (positions 1–3)
| Number | Archon | Legend | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Last hits / min | 4.89 | 4.89 | same |
| GPM | 501 | 501 | same |
| Deaths / game | 7.9 | 7.7 | −0.2 |
| Level / min | 0.54 | 0.54 | same |
Between these two medals the median core plays almost the same numbers: what separates them here is not in this table, so your own numbers are the only honest guide.
As a support (positions 4–5)
| Number | Archon | Legend | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|

| KDA | 3.77 | 3.81 | +0.04 |
