What is DraftGap?

Updated

DraftGap is a drafting companion for League of Legends that analyzes your team composition alongside the enemy team and suggests which champions to pick. It's aimed at players who want to make better-informed draft decisions and climb the ranked ladder. The site is a JavaScript web app, so it requires JavaScript enabled in your browser to run.

What it does

Based on the site's own description, DraftGap works at the champion-select stage of a game. Its core function is analysis: it looks at both sides of the draft and turns that into pick recommendations.

In practice, that means the tool is meant to answer the question every player faces in champ select — "given what's already locked in on both teams, what should I pick?" Rather than relying on memory or a tier list alone, you feed the draft state into the tool and get suggestions back.

Who it's for

  • Ranked players who care about draft quality and want a second opinion during champion select.
  • Players learning the game who don't yet have a strong feel for how team compositions fit together.
  • Anyone who drafts with a group and wants a shared reference point for pick decisions.

If you only play one champion regardless of matchup, or you play modes without a draft phase, the tool's core value is limited.

What to expect when you use it

The site does not publish pricing information, so don't assume it's free — check the app itself for any account or payment requirements.

How to try it

  1. Open draftgap.com in a browser with JavaScript enabled.
  2. If the page appears blank or doesn't load, check that JavaScript isn't blocked by an extension or browser setting — the site explicitly requires it.
  3. Enter the current draft state (your team and the enemy team) as the app prompts.
  4. Review the suggested champions and weigh them against your own champion pool and comfort.

The main caveat

The tool gives recommendations, not guarantees. A suggestion is only useful if you can actually play the champion well and if it fits your team's plan. Treat DraftGap as one input into your decision, alongside your own experience and knowledge of your teammates.
