So, fair, right?

Niyumi··1 votes·437 views

So, I'm going to describe a champion without saying their name. You tell me if it sounds fucking "fair" or "balanced" in any way.

  • Not one, not two, but four dashes.

  • Soft and hard CC.

  • Targeted nukes that do 500+ damage, instantly killing squishies with three buttons.

  • Passive that basically ensures the champion never dies.

  • No skillshots worth mentioning.

  • Ability to instantly delete people with a component item (40 AP).

  • Long range.

  • No risk.

Does that sound fair? This champion can destroy entire teams by just rolling their face on their keyboard and clicking on people. No counterplay to their kit, no way to actually beat them short of not playing in the same game as them, but apparently it's "fair" for them to do that.

Wanna guess the champion? If you guessed LeBitch, then you were right!

So Riot, wanna explain to me how LB is fair in any fucking world? "Durrr, just stack MR! She won't delete you then!" -- but with an Abyssal and Void Staff plus Sorc treads, she nullifies any MR you build, and still deletes you with her combo that does upwards of 3,000 damage. You sure love to ignore any threads calling you out, so I don't expect an answer. Not like you really have an answer beyond, "Easy champs make whales happy, and LB is flashy enough to make money, so she can't be anything but absurd." anyway.

  • No risk.

There is where u are wrong. Leblanc has to get into someones face to do damage and she is squishy and can be deleted instantly. Her laning phase is weak, and she can easily be forced to lose alot of CS if she tries to trade with u. MR counters her pretty well, i mean didnt u see on pro play? Corki builds MAW, LB does full combo, Corki is on 50% hp, Leblanc running for her dear life after 1 rocket and 1 auto.

-No skillshot worth mentioning and yet u mentioned them as 2nd argument. Her CC is skillshot.

-She doesnt have long range. She is assassin that cant do anything from range. She has to get close to do damage.

You sir are correct, i have a pal who mains leblanc, and she's only good if she gets fed, the second she falls behind, she becomes close to useless, also if you mess up your combo your gonna have a bad time.

Ye, and its soooo easy to deny her getting fed. Just pick anything with waveclear. VIktor, Morgana, Orianna,Brand... Rush Abyssal and shove wave after wave. Leblanc is gonna be forced to farm with her abilities just to get CS and protect her turret. She wont be able to trade with you. She will fall behind and become useless.

  • No risk.

She W's in and fucks up? She can push W again to teleport away. She would have died? Nah, her passive makes her turn invisible, breaks all targeting, and lets her run away anyway.

So yeah, no risk.

There is where u are wrong. Leblanc has to get into someones face to do damage and she is squishy and can be deleted instantly.

Yet uh, her Q, W and E all have incredibly long range.

-No skillshot worth mentioning and yet u mentioned them as 2nd argument. Her CC is skillshot.

Her E is a huge hitbox, and moves incredibly fast. If you can't land it, you need to go to a psych ward.

-She doesnt have long range. She is assassin that cant do anything from range. She has to get close to do damage.

Look at her W and E. Longer range than most mids. Her Q is average for a mid laner.

U are just listing her abilities. Goal isnt to kill her. Just focus on objectives, pick Exhaust against her and focus on farm. Everything outscales her if she doesnt get fed. If she goes missing , ping.

I will give u simple fact. Considering how easy she is, u would expect her to have at least 50% winrate. She has lowest winrate out of all assassins. U just need Abyssal or Maw and she is done.

Also i noticed if you pick Cho'gath mid into a Leblanc, his silence works very well against her if you know she is about to dash

Sounds more like ekko & fizz.

It all comes to one thing:

If your goal is to kill Leblanc, get fed against her and try to trade her, you are gonna have a bad time. You are playing her game. If your goal is to win game, push her, force her into using abilities to farm, if she tries to roam ping and punish her by pushing hard, even call jungler. She will fail her roam, she will lose CS and she will lose turret. You will always be ahead and she wont do a damn thing to you. Once your support finishes his Locket and if your ADC is smart to build Maw , game is basically 5v4 for you. She will W in, do little damage and die or run away on low hp.

So, I'm going to describe a champion without saying their name. You tell me if it sounds fucking "fair" or "balanced" in any way.

  • A mini Malphite ultimate on a basic ability

  • Soft and hard CC.

  • Absurd amount of sustain that only gets better the lower he is.

  • Passive that basically ensures the champion never dies.

  • No skillshots worth mentioning.

  • Ability to sustain through anything with not one but two attack speed buffs.

  • Free harass that deals magic damage scaling off of AD.

  • Effectively resourceless because of his ridiculous sustain

Does that sound fair? This champion can destroy entire teams by just rolling their face on their keyboard and clicking on people. No counterplay to their kit, no way to actually beat them short of not playing in the same game as them, but apparently it's "fair" for them to do that.

doesn't sound fair at all. Good thing league has no champ like this. I hope you aren't suggesting it does because that would make you look really stupid
