I know shes toxic and all and was dominating both solo queue and competitive for a while now, but this is a little bit too much imo.

That's how my first (and last) post-nerf game with her went: the opponent was pushing mid, I was forced to W Q to push as well, W was on a disgustingly high cooldown because I go for Q>W>E>W and then keep maxing Q/E, and Annie literally roamed more than me because I had to choose between my turret and following her to help botlane. That nerf was a joke.

Expect downvotes though, people hate her and don't care at all if your argument is valid or not.

agreed, then again its okay cause most of this community is like gold V anyway lol A good player can work around changes at the end of the day.

Everyone but leblanc mains are happier when leblanc is not popular. Shes a cancerous, smothering design. People are just mad she has to actually work for her kills now instead of pressing 2 buttons to chunk 1/3 of her lane opponents hp at level 2. Now she only gets 1/4.

Boo. Fkn. Hoo. Just like 90% of the whine threads on this board its an overreaction and will die off once the changes hit live. Her w is a mobility spell! She has a passive and 2 other abilities to deal damage

I don't plan to ever use her again honestly. Season 3 kassadin was like LB, so they destroyed him for the most part, and now Leblanc gets her moment of ruin in Season 7. Funny, all the AD champions never seem to have the damage done to them that the AP assassins get.

I loved playing LB until the rework, which is completely asinine requiring an assassin to wait to do damage for the sigil to proc, and after seeing the nerf to her W and mimic W I won't be using her anytime in the future. R.I.P LB.

As far as the smarky comment about gold and being good, you can always adapt and change to get better but in some cases, doing so legitimizes the most unnecessary nerfs - its about damn time people take a stand rather than adapt and just accept it. Until that happens, your favorite champions could be next.

being adaptable is part of league. Meta changes as do players, that's why the challenger rank 1 keeps changing and not alot of players can stay at the top. Its rare to find players who can adapt and still thrive so i don't blame you.

There's being adaptable for the sake of needing to change things up and adaptable because the game company -decides- to change things, usually on a whim and with no long term thought put into it that disrupts things from one champion to an entire class.

This might come as a shock, but most of us do not want to be Challenger 1. We want to play a game, and enjoy that game. Imagine if this kind of crap happened during Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat when they first got released in the late 80's/early 90's? The franchises would have died almost immediately. Most of us play league to have fun with friends and enjoy a game, not to see who can out-rank the other and work feverishly to hit challenger so we can get a cheap jacket. However, if some of us wanted to get to Challenger 1 there's always a chance of that, if we actually had people who were willing to talk and tutor without charging or acting like an egomaniac because they have a high rank in a game that is losing players month by month. Its like being the best fighter in a club of four people - not exactly worth the bragging right.
