LeBlanc mobility and outplay potential

I know it's fun to "outplay" your opponent with distortions by kiting him and blinking back. I have a considerable amount of games (for my elo) on LB. There is definitely an issue with LBs mobility in terms of outplay possibility for her opponents. Moreover considering she can double distortion. Worlds also highlighted this.

What about fairly limiting distance she can walk away from point of origin and being able to blink back? E.g. long enough to hold an E tether but not as long that she can walk away without being punished when caught. When she leaves specific radius - distorted image disappears and she can no longer blink back.

Distortion's range should be reduced to 500 from 600.

I think that's an adequate nerf.

Chain length on E is another topic.

I'd rather they nerf the damage a little instead , there is no problem with having a unique play style like this

Requiring her to be in radius to blink back takes her out back and puts her to the firing squad. There are ways to nerf her, but this is not it. She'd be useless with her W -> R combo, since her second dash would immediately put her out of her first dash's range unless she uses it point blank.
