Put a fixed cooldown on her W, and people will max her Q instead of W. Because Q offer more damage and waveclear.
People will still max W on Leblanc even after the NERF, The escape is way too important.
Jbels1 votesThat's the point. Now you'll have to have a good mobility spell with crappy damage if you want to be more mobile, or you can have less mobility for more damage by maxing Q. Check it out, LB is making tradeoffs again
taleofsonata1 votesIt's a Horrible Trade off, She is The leader of the black rose now she is what a petal ? Look at Azir an emperor that does jackshit for gameplay. Leblanc is the Master of Burst, Riot said they will never nerf her damage and now they are breaking their fucking promise because who the fuck put ricklessabandon in charge of Leblanc. Like Fire that guy, geez This is outrageous, a champion who is considered in a fine state is getting gutted for no reason. Stupid LCS Players who plays her because they don't have a champion pool like faker and sucks at playing more than 1 champion. The Korean LCS at least always bring new champions into the meta unlike NA and EU.
Yaśuo Main2 votesLB was never fine at all, she had free damage just for point and click and pressing W to the target, which was already enough to kill them with E after, not even counting in her R. She had stupid mobility (which isn't too stupid imo) that gave crap tons of damage and a large dash, basically pre-nerf Yasuo E x10. That was just pre-rework
Now it's insane damage on the SNARE instead of the W which made the boards realize how big of a range it is, even without the slow. Every spell she hits on you = you will get hit pretty hard or even chunked. Her clone is even more thematic now, but also very annoying for Champs with breakable shields like Sivir Shield or Yasuo Flow Shield/ W
Clearly you are a fanboy/fangirl of LB and got pissed off, because it seems like you haven't ever seen what LB was.
Pre-rework LB didn't even need to follow a build, she could literally get 5 Rod Of Ages and not pay any price for it. One of the dumbest things I've seen is "freebuild" champs where they can build anything and still do damage like AP Nasus and AP Tryndamere.

A champion's aesthetic theme does not dictate how powerful they should be, ever. Leblanc is broken. Period. She deserves the nerfs she is getting

There was a Riot employe it was Morello who said that it doesn't matter how broken the champion gets we will never touch her damage. He said that Leblanc will be balanced around her Kit and not Damage.

Her kit IS damage. Everything on her kit is meant to do damage, with an added effect. That's what an assassin is. You can't nerf her without nerfing her damage
