Killing is literally all she does, do this and you're basically gutting her because now she won't even be reliable at killing.

what the fuck did i read? adding a delay on her W doesn't reduce her damage, just give you enough time to cc her, they did it with zed putting a delay on his R so he doesn't R----> E+Q instantly R to come back on his clone. This doesn't nerf her ability to kill at all

The thing is you already have time to CC her when she dashes. I know it looks bad, but in reality, LeBlanc is really screwed by people that time their CC perfectly to the point she will be deleted by them.

Her W is just a normal dash, and LeBlanc has the options: to dash onto an enemy for damage, which exposes her by a lot; to dash to get closer to the opponent, which is used just for mobility; and to run away. In the first scenario, she risks a lot, and can be killed by just using CC while she flies. In the other cases, she kinda wastes her ability for just some mobility, and her combo would be comparable to the damage of some Poke Mages.

I agree that there is room for changes in her kit, but her W isn't the real problem. From my point of view, her chain (E) needs some real tweaks, at least some changes to its range and width...

really...another one of these posts. It's what she does and if you are removing it immense power will be shifted towards something else in her kit like adding silence to her Q and making her chains pierce through minions for example. It would be horrid

I don't really find it difficult to CC her while she dashes. After that, she is a pretty free kill :D

Unless she dashes back to her original spot before the cc lands

Than the cc will wear off and she'll still escape.

Jeez, at least try to come up with some argument...

In that case it means you missed the moment to land your CC. While she dashes, she is vulnerable to anything you throw at her, and she cannot go back once she started the dash.

There are some players that say Lulu is the best counter to LeBlanc. When they were asked why, they said Lulu is great because if she reacts perfectly, she can cancel LeBlanc's combo with just one good CC, and Lulu has two for that!

Personally, playing against a LeBlanc is all about positioning, reactions and attention to the map. If you have all these qualities, she will most probably be forced to roam, and you will be prepared with an answer for most of the situations.

The problem comes from her being able to manipulation her position to easily. So her making a massive mistake can so be salvaged.

Even against a champion like lulu. Lulu would need to have a massive lead to have any real effect against Leblanc

It'd ruin the character and isn't the nerf she needs.

They did that...she became unplayable. Just get some reflexes and forethought.

Honestly she needs this nerf.

Rysophage1 votes

They already did it a few patches ago. she became garbage. stop crying. LB isn't even in the top spot for mid laners people's brains just move in slow motion and they cant dodge shit.

Does she really need a nerf?

Banshee's veil=leblanc counter. not sure why everyone forgot that. ppl stopped playing leblanc seasons ago when everyone kenw any spell sheild BV,Black sheild, sivir sheild. any of it counters leblancs high burst. then ppl stopped buying it and now we have leblanc again. . .shes probably the easiest to counter late game cause once her burst is negated (spell sheilds, Banshees veil) she becomes almost irrelevant.

The Hexdrinker is also an answer. With the changes to its final form (Maw of Malmortius) you literally have no excuse for not buying it if you are an AD champion with difficulties versus Magic Damage dealers.

its impossible to kill her in the laning phase. she needs alonger cooldown on it.

No. Anyone who suggests this does not understand how leblanc works. Not going into detail again but it is unworkable with strong compensation buffs.

do the same to Zed
