Leblanc revert is not ok!!!!

After playing leblanc in pbe and saw posts from boards in different regions. I found that reverted leblanc lost her power that she gained in rework version such as wq combo and his ult (rr,rq,re,rw). Besides, his e is not longer useful to help jungle to kill her enemy in pbe (no slow). Most importantly, her power is only 60 percent of the one before the rework version after the fake revert. I don't know how riot thinks and from who they ask ideas. I am sure more than 60 main leblanc players disagree with the reverted leblanc. If you haven't play leblanc since her rework, I don't think you will understand what I am saying. her manna cost is unacceptable in pbe version. I hope riot notices the problems and ponder it seriously before making the change.

She'll get buffs after the revert. I played old and new LB, the old LB was far superior. Again she'll prolly need some sort of buffs but she'll be a force to be reckoned with once again, and I'm glad for that as I miss playing one of my favorite champs.

new lb feels skillful and has multiple combos that work. i like it better than old lb. old lb was literally just qw levels 1-5, qrw 6+, forget your chain exists bc you dont even need to use it, and it does negligible dmg. then fall off after 20 minutes. ere is by far the msot useful combo any mid laner has for setting up ganks.. its pretty much a guaranteed kill with the nearly global tether range, AND it actually does dmg. er did/will do literally 0 dmg and will not be worth using for any jungler other than kha

I don't really know which is worse, but I can say this much: Her current incarnation has 0 counterplay on at least 75% of the champion roster. If you don't have an active dash in your kit, and are in a stage of the game where team play doesn't exist, she can overkill you, and there's no counterplay at all. For example, the other day, I was playing MissFortune . There's literally nothing at all in MF's kit that can prevent an LB kill of her. If she tether's MF, she's going to die in 2 seconds, because she can't finish a counter kill in time, and she can't break the leash, or run out of it. I actually built item 3156 item 3111 and began building item 3139 on that MF...... LB STILL popped me in 2 skills. That means....she was doing enough damage to pop about 3000 damage by the time I was at 2 1/2 items.

If you look at LB's raw numbers, she's a pre nerf Zoe with all her damage in her passive, instead of a skill that goes on cooldown. And, her procs are reliable, happen on ANY skill she contacts with, and unless you are cleaning up an LB after she's just killed one, there's no counterplay unless you have a long range dash/blink.

What's worse is... her play rate is so low that Riot never nerfs her, to lack of reliable statistics.

I don't mind LB as a whole, but she is literally one of the only champs that exists in the current game which has situations where no item build can counter her reliably on a large portion of the champ base.

I will miss the double R cast. I liked the mind function a lot.

The revert Leblanc is not to the hype that all thought after playing the abilities updated rework from season 6. LB is now not at all 1 shot burst combo champ and also very difficult minions farming as it was earlier. Please RIOT I main LB and not at all satisfied with the new revert LeBlanc Please make her Great again :'( :'( :'(

There was a kind of bug I found when trying LeBlanc at the practicing tool where at level 18 full items I tried some combos fast, where the LB ult (R) went on a 5 minutes cooldown. Please revert her again RIOT. [leblanc-funny]
