Introduction
Earlier last week, a gamer and statistician going by the name of Sufficiency collected a set of 95,000 URF games. Some of the results were likely what you'd expect, whereas some were a bit unexpected.. Check out some of the highlights below!

Highlights
Strong Champions:
Maokai - Looks like you guys were right on this one, Maokai does indeed perform very well on URF mode, especially this year now that you can keep his ultimate following him.Diana - Again, the Nerfplz community wins another for Diana, one of the hidden OPs that apparently does very well in URF mode!
Weak Champions:
Bard - The utility he provides, while fun to run through tunnels over and over again, apparently translates to just as much success as it does on the regular rift.Leblanc - I can't let you guys win ALL the battles, Leblanc pulls in near the very bottom of the list.
Kassadin - Somewhat of a surprise, but it seems that for Kassadin, like Bard, jumping around constantly doesn't exactly translate to wins this time around in his nerfed state.
Otherwise, the data is surprisingly even, with most champions hovering around a clean 50% for the most part. So apparently URF is balanced. Go figure.
Full Data
Sorry about the formatting...I did something funky to the HTML and can't override it at the moment. Hopefully I'll figure it out eventually. Feel free to drop some ideas in the comment section if you have some web design know-how.
