Leblanc Mini-Rework Concept

Right now Leblanc fells really bad to play with. she can barely gets shit done and often fail at getting picks because other assasain champion are just better at doing her job. On top of that, she really suck at farming minions and lane is impossible against people who push you hard into your turret. And if you try to waveclear with your spell, your mana cost are so high that you barely have mana to fight after. Other assasains mid have waveclear and are able to raom after.

I think that the reworked version of Leblanc was clearly not aimed at assasain playstyle. but i think riot was on something! So i tweak some things here and there and i think this mini-rework could make her enjoyable without changing her actual playstyle too much.

Passive : Sigil of Malice (NEW) (Reworked version of Riot) (NEW) Leblanc's abilities inflict Sigil of Malice, which can be detonated and consumed by her other abilities or basic attacks after a few seconds to deal bonus damage.

Q: Shatter Orb (NEW)(Reworked version of Riot) Fires an orb that damages an enemy. If the orb triggers Sigil of Malice it shatters, consuming the sigil and dealing damage to the nearest available Sigil of Malice also consumming the mark

W: Distortion (UNCHANGED) Dashes to target location, dealing damage to all nearby enemies upon landing. Recasting Distortion within a few seconds returns Leblanc to her starting location.

E : Ethereal Chains (UNCHANGED) Launches illusionary chains in a direction, damaging and shackling the first target hit. If the target remains shackled for a few moments, they'll take additional damage and become rooted.

R : Mimic (This is were i made up things, but was greatly inspire by the rework R of riot but i change some things that riot made). This ability has 2 fonction)(R1 and R2 have separate cooldown)

R1 : The last spell you have cast is availaible for 5 seconds to be cast again (like it works today but with a time window added.). Once cast, it goes on cooldown like usual. If W is cast, you still can go back to the pad before it switch to R2. R1 also grants a little window of invisibility on cast whatever the ability.

R2 : You can cast R2 whenever R1 isnt active ,When R2 is cast, Leblanc becomes invisible and gain some mouvement speed for a short duration, creating a Clone (exactly like her actual passive that can be targeted etc...) to take her place that will walk toward the nearest visible enemy champion, casting a non-damaging version of Leblanc's Q than W than disappear. If R1 isnt on cooldown, leblanc can still use it like usual immediatly after casting R2

If Leblanc does R1 before R2, R2 become immidiately availaible to cast if not on cooldown (except in w case where she needs her pad do disappear) Leblanc clone can also be control with Ctrl + click instead but after reaching his destination it will walk to the nearest ennemy champion to do the fake combo than disappear. The Clone can remain alive for 30 seconds max. So what do you guys think?

There could still be improvement on many abilitys like her E which takes forever before the second proc.

You know the game has turned to the worst when Leblanc out of all champions is having a hard time LANING.
