Leona - is not broken- and why

Leona main strengh is her "cc" and most of it "scales terribly with ap". by herself she can never win 1v1 fight with skilled player unless you 100% play her top build her damage... oh by the way "Good luck with that" cause pre-6 leona is awful" and you porbably sitting at your tower given enemy top laner free farm watch is never good.

reason why leona is powerful is "teamwork" in team fights she is beast. and she so post to be. her Q should stay at 4.0 cool-down and rest of abilities are fine.

If your having trouble with leona riot team shouldnt have nerf her cause you lack ability to use tools giving too you. summoner spell cleanse is easy way shut her down.

however what riot can do is buff summoner spell cleanse watch allow players to combat these threat

then their is aftershock, aftershock is pretty powerful but its not broken. again if your having trouble against leona. then its your fault your skill not riots problem

another thing if leona misses her hook. misses her ult she in world of hurt. its matter of skill leonas hooks is easy to bait and dodge . without her hook she cant go in unless she flash auto <q> auto

please learn to play not get angry cause you messed up got hit by her full combo

watch by itself can only lower you 45-55% your hp it cant kill

if it kills it mostly cause teammates worked with leona take down target

also never focus leona in team fight. you have better targets like mid laner or adc. killing the support in 5v5 thats normally extremely tankly isn't a way to win team fights clean house then fight leona. you see shes not that strong</q>

Stop fooling yourself, there is good reason why she has 55% wr/16% pr/44% br in dia+ Korea, she is currently better than Naut, she deserves nothing but nerfs to her dmg or cc, she can't have both, period.

When her ult granted empowered aa it was nice. Straight ap she will fuck most champs up based on combo. W r ea boom dead , if you have thunderlords and magic pent you will

yeah lets just ignore the fact that leona support + any ADC means if you step out of line even an inch you get blown the fuck up with no chance to escape. Her damage isn't a problem when she's alone, when you combine that with her CC and a carry she is cancer.

I mean, frankly I'd rather just lower damage in the game for every champion by at least 20%, at which point leona probably won't be such a hard stop for people because then the combined damage isn't enough to just instantly 100 to 0 people at level 2.

She's not broken, but she's incredibly frustrating to fight against. If you fail to dodge one skillshot (that can't be blocked by minions), you get locked down for like 4 seconds. Sure, the range on it is shorter than other engage supports, but she's so tanky that you can't punish her for stepping up. She can completely zone you off the wave simply by existing.

I don't think Leona needs an overall nerf, but rather, both buffs and nerfs to make her less frustrating to play against, but more fun to play. Maybe tone down extreme duration of her lockdown combo in exchange for shorter cooldowns, so she can set up those plays more frequently.

Their no "I" in team. only reason leona has 55% win rate is cause she had "Good Players" backin up

Janna (Hard counters her) Alister (will hard punish her) Morgana (Hard counters her) Sanna (also destroy leona) Brand (Cancer)

if you pick a champion knowing leona has edge over you again thats your fault
