I currently main Leona on my main account. I love her. Her kit is super straight forward and she brings a lot of utility to offer that makes team fights helpful. But sadly enough, after playing many games with Leona, I couldn't help but feel rather bored of her kit compared to other supports I've played constantly as much as Leo.

It's maybe because her kit is probably TOO straight forward. I know she's currently a well balanced champion and doesn't need anything, but I really do feel that her entire kit is very lack luster. Her Q is an example of one, where it's practically like a item active and her W is just a ticking bomb. Her E is cool I like it, and her ult is ok (even tho in the cinematic they made her ult look like a sun laser which was SO COOL)

Idk, I just feel like her kit is super dull. What makes this scary is visualizing Riot reworking her kit where she later becomes another champion who is a failure for the sake of "theme". But then again, Riot has had their past success too so we can't over look on that.

I imagine she'll be kept as "THE" engaging tank support, to use one of Riot's favourite words. I don't expect her to get any major gameplay changes in the future, outside that weird ult change she got a while back for no reason.

Yep, she is completely binary, you grab, stun, ult; rinse repeat. A better example of her would be Thresh and maybe Nautilus.

THIS. This is exactly how I feel. She suffers the same thing with Blitzcrank.

Whereas indeed thresh, has more of a adventurous kit.

See, I personally like the Q only because it synergizes so well with iceborn and turns her into a pretty unique thing (namely a cc-bot with the capability of instantly isolating a target and making it hard to go near/protect them). If there's one thing that could be changed, it'd have to be her ultimate, as for a melee-range diving cc-bot it doesn't fit in at all with the rest of her kit.
