[Hint] Balancing for LeBlanc

Zarpo·May 17, 2015·4 votes·386 views

Hello,

As seen in patch 5.9, Zed now has a standby time of 1s to use your R to be able to return back to its starting point (where is it your shadow). This effect allows a defense mode against this extremely mobile champion.

LeBlanc, just as Zed is a very mobile character and is complicated you gain with many champions. Given this fact, I considered the possibility of their ability Distortion (W) be "canceled":

Once LeBlanc use Distortion (W) and receive any source of harm from champions, it can not go back to the starting point of your brand.

According to my analysis, would not weaken it, since it can reposition itself with the Mimic (R) and still continue to use their skills to move the map. The idea is to make it a risky killer, or it kills your target or will be in big trouble

NOTE: I apologize for any grammar error. My native language is not American >.<

This is terriable because a normal rotation is WQREW so you Q mimic Q then E and then W back. making her unable to w back after taking damage would be so stupid honestly.

This change would certainly make her less " easy kill and escape without taking any damage"

Wat. I'm sorry, but I'm kinda confused.

Bad idea, because that's not "balancing", that's "breaking". Although judging by some changes to champions ( Akali Veigar Soraka ) that doesn't mean the balance team wouldn't be receptive to it.

I got an idea, make activating distortion a second time increase the cooldown and cost mana, since its essentially 2 spells in 1. Though theres a good chance any suggested nerfs to leblanc would be viewed as trying to Veigar her, like how ppl reacted when her silence was removed.
