How RiftMind calculates these stats

RiftMind calculates these statistics from Ranked Solo/Duo match records filtered by patch, region, rank scope, champion, and role.

Champion role, build, rune, and item summaries use patch-specific aggregates, while counter and synergy pages compare observed results with role-adjusted expectations over a rolling patch window.
