Anyone else feeling Leblanc and Annie are just dumb?

I feel betrayed when I die to an Annie or Leblanc, especially when they camp me in a bush and burst me 100-0 so I have no time of reaction. I feel like annie Q-W-R is easy to pull and so is Leblanc's Q-R-W, that burst you. I played a matchup where I was first pick Orianna into Leblanc and I had nothing to do as she simply bursted me. Also am I the only one that feels Annie rework is a sort of buff(talking about ult)?

Meanwhile Kha'zix, Akali, and Zed are considered problems.

Actually the lane Orianna vs LeBlanc is pretty good for Orianna - except you are playing Ori not very frequently and your opponent is a LeBlanc main.

Additionally, you are able to protect your ADC against the LeBlanc - makes the game even harder for her

Still hard lane especially mid-game

yep, but trust me, it is not easy for both sides. If the Orianna is smart, LeBlanc is not able to snowball against her. It is a farming lane, and LeBlanc is not a champion that likes csing - of course that can allow her to get the items to oneshot carries too, but way slower

I still consider Leblanc dumb due to burst and lack of reaction time.

Michael Sykes2 votes

burst is the part of an assassin; the reaction time against a Rengar or a Talon is way lower. Of course she can burst squishies in a second, but if she isn't extremely ahead, it depends on a skillshot, which makes the combo avoidable

Yeah but Rengar can Die when Leblanc can use her W and juke you to hell. Also Talon can get seen by Pink Wards and CC'ed.

which is the reason why Talon and Rengar are candidates for changes in the preseason - and LeBlanc might have the ability to jump back, but she is also the squishiest assassin according to her itembuild

LeBitch is a retarded design overall, one shotting champion with 4 dashes/teleports along with invisibility and decoy for safety, how can so packed kit can be called balanced?

They should reduce LeBlanc's damage and bring back her silence. She used to be more fun to play at support than she is to play mid today. Or at least give her some other kind of utility. Maybe a delayed silence or something, if you combo two of her abilities. Rather than just giving her insane damage and having a one-button snare, I think it'd be more fun if they gave her different CC options based on landing an ability after another specific ability.

Maybe also nerf her W speed a little?

Nope. They aren't dumb at all. Sure they are frustrating but nothing that I can't handle. Other champions are more of a problem for me than they are, example: Zed, Blitz (as I like to play ADC), etc.

Leblanc is NOT dumb. You have to be seasoned enough to carry games because she has the LOWEST base health among the assassins, and she has to approach enemies closely to deal damage. She can poof back but she melts away if she is CC'ed during W. Also, because she is bad at farming, so if she loses lane badly it's hard to make a come back. Also she doens' have chance to build pure defensive items like banshee or GA because she is a main burst dealer in her team, and getting zero AP defense items causes lots of deal loss. It's even harder for LB if enemy team has bruiser and tanks(meaning her team failed to win early).

Bad LB players are one of the worst frustration; they don't know combo, good item choices, and timing to jump into the enemies. The team ends up having 4 vs 5 fights. For example, I had LB buying Athene and liandry by the 30 minutes mark....we lost that game because she was our main dealer and wwithout someone to burst the enemeis down, we lost very quicky
