LeBlanc needs a small early game buff

In the current meta, LeBlanc struggles early game, especially when a player is inexperienced with her. I also think she scales relatively slowly. AP ratios are too low at some places. Sometimes, she won't even feel like an assassin. I one-trick her from soon, so I thought of these changes as interesting.

May I suggest a few changes? Ok, good, let's move on!


Q : Sigil of Malice Cost: 30/45/60/75/90 mana Damage on hit: 40/65/90/115/140 (+25% AP) Damage on mark trigger: 70/100/130/160/190 (+70% AP) Cooldown: 6 -> 9/8/7/6/5 seconds Range: 700 (default)

W : Distortion (includes an interesting change to make LeBlanc really feel like an assassin, rather than a mage) Cost: 50/70/90/110/130 mana Damage: 100/150/200/250/300 (+50% AP) - I shifted AP ratio to Q mark detonation, so this makes sense, the high damage is to increase early potential to get a kill. Missile speed: 2/2.5/3/3.5/4 multiplier of LeBlanc's current movement speed (can be slowed down mid-dash as well) + 500 Range: 600/625/650/675/700

E : Ethereal Chains On-root effect: Enemies' healing is reduced by 60% for 3 seconds. (grievous wounds) - Why so? You buff Kled, why not buff LeBlanc this way too then? Her E is similar to his Q, however it only can hit 1 enemy, which makes it harder to land, as Kled's Q can pass through the minions. Damage on hit: 60/90/120/150/180 (+25% AP) Damage on root: 70/110/150/190/230 (+50% AP)

R : Mimic Cooldown: 60/45/30 -> 40/30/20 seconds Q and E damage on 1st hit: 70/120/170 (+40% AP) Q and E damage on 2nd hit: 100/180/260 (+80% AP) W damage: 180/330/480 (+65% AP)

Excuse me wtf really? 30 seconds is already too fucking low for a 0.1 sec full targeted oneshot burst from a screen away If you want to buff LB, add some counterplay to her combos first.

There is counter play. For example, the slow I added to her W. You can slow her to death.

LB doesn't need changes really.

She is really strong and really healthy. If you feel like she doesn't have enough damage, I suggest you check out how pros play her. Maybe you are doing stuff the wrong way.

Man, I can one-shot with her, that's not the issue. The problem is I need a champion to 1v9 with.
