Lulu picked between 4 and 7% of the time in plat ranked, which is pretty high since any given champion has a 10% chance of being picked overall bans notwithstanding
Also considering worlds just happened, pick crossover is incredibly likely to happen, there were a lot of Lulus in the past two days of the TSM off-season circuit.
Sona: 34-45%
Blitzcrank: 35-40%
Taric: 28-40%
Janna: 13-20%
She's just not a popular pick. I'm not saying she's bad just that I believe she has a higher learning curve than other supports so people generally don't know how to play her so they decide not to play her. During say june-sept, all I saw pros play were
- sona
- blitzcrank
- nunu
- janna (fell off after nerfs)
- soraka (fell off after lane swapping became more standard)
- occasional leona + taric
- alistar if it wasn't banned
Very rarely did I see a lulu so all of this is based on what i've seen. Maybe people are just starting to play lulu but 2 days is not enough to say she is now a popular support. She is certainly viable just harder to play than some other supports. Honestly she's not even THAT hard just you need quick reaction times for her shield just like janna. The one main drawback I hate on her is she's slow as dirt.
