So lets talk about LB

So in this new world that riot is trying to create where assassins are not a auto win riot has enjoyed itself in leaving LB on the rift with no changes to her what so ever.

if you take a look at the league of legends page about LB you will see low Mana costs for high damage point and click abilities that take little to no skill. Now Leblanc is tough to face, but we have seen high elo players deal with her by using a great amount of skill and prediction so that they can land cc while she is blasting towards them. This of course doesn't help a lot after level 6 when her EXTREMELY LOW CD ult is able to Proc Q or Q is able to proc ult and she deals huge amounts of damage for basically free because her ult doesn't have a mana cost. Also the riot page doesn't list a Cd for Lb ult because at rank 3 it is 24 seconds and at rank 1 this free high damage ability has a 40 second cd which is stupid low for a high scaling (60% ap for Sigil applies once for initial and again for secondary/ 90% ap for Distortion/ 60% ap for chains ) high damage (100/200/300 for Sigil Initial and again on secondary/ 150/300/450 for Distortion/ 100/200/300 for chains) free ability that can require 2 point and click uses.

So why is it that riot is allowing a high damage, Low cooldown, Low mana cost Assassin do this in a more skill based league of legends?

i think that Leblanc should either get nerfed until Rito knows what to do with her or should get a rework because this champ is downright unforgiving to the majority of players that have to face her below diamond.

Now all this is well and good, but what do high elo players have to say about this champion? Well you don't have to look far when you see that every single game at Msi, except for 3, Leblanc was either picked or banned out. So even the pro players across every region think she is a broken champion. With only Hecarim getting as much pick/ban time as LB and he got nerfed with the Cinderhulk debuff. Msi Wiki

So Rito please do something about this extremely toxic champ

That's why i put in the whole thing about MSI, because no one will listen to me based on rank alone. So basically i asked all my diamond friends if LB was as good in diamond as she was in my elo and they all started raving about how much they hated facing her. Then i asked a bunch of facebook pages for league about her and the general statement was that she should be reworked. Then i had a lot of games against LB and all taht led to this

No one likes vsing a Leblanc... She does what she does and if you out play her she doesn't do it anymore.

My problem isn't that she does what she does and that is assassinating. My problem is that she doesn't require any skill to play and get ahead with and she is very difficult to stop and almost punishing if you don't stop her early enough. To a diamond player who has a lot of skill to offer in stopping her it is by no means impossible, but it is difficult. my main problem is that the lower in elo you get the more punishing she is to her lane opponent because they don't have the skill required to beat her. Even when you look at high elo she is still a really good champ to pick in solo que, because if your lane opponent doesn't just outplay you then you have a good chance of winning the lane and killing every squishy mid-late
