So when is Le Broken getting nerfed?

  • Insane mobility
  • Can kill champions without even using her full combo
  • Incredibly toxic and anti fun and low cooldown 'poke' pattern in lane that takes 50% of your health before she presses W back to safety
  • Staple competitive pick

Its honestly hilarious that you would nerf Azir, Syndra or Kassadin before this incredibly broken champion.

Yes. It was possibly the most toxic thing in League. Ever.

That just shows how retarded people resposible for champion mechanics and balance in Riot Games really are. Kassadin and LeBlanc were champions with absoluetely 0 counterplay if you were a caster, yet some idiot at Rito had thought that was perfectly fine for quite a long time. At least they are learning, but really slowly.

If you max W over Q with LeBlanc, you have no idea how to play this game.

Btw I don't know what do you call "ap bias".

i listed ap biased arguments there go enjoy and surf around board and you will find exactly the same thing defending broken ap champs

ummmmm bjergson maxes w over Q a lot.

dw, I was kinda exaggerating. Maxing W over Q isn't bad, but maxing Q over W isn't neither, it's the standard path because it's the best option in most cases, and most players, even at LCS, max Q over W.

link a game where leblanc max q first, you can do it in soloq because you play against people that dont know how to punish you rofl

PInk ward her chain? What does that mean?

Provengreil2 votes

People have complained about akali. Like, a ton(often with good reason). the typical answer?

"just pink ward the shroud u noob"

which might work it it's still early, but it didn't stop her stupid amount of damage reduction(There's a reason Riot did that in), nor does it stop her all in that even tristana can't escape from without help, meaning it's a straight stat check of whether she's fed enough to burst you or not. in anything below about silver 3, that's less a question and more a given.

So it's a joke now. dude, just pink ward the [insert character's signature move here]

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Ah, thanks.

Remove 2nd part of Distortion so she has to use ult to escape. No champion should be allowed to one shot while being untouchable at all.

She wasn't at season 3, even when she had a silence.

LeBlanc is fine as she is, you are forgetting her downsides like the fact that she's nearly useless in teamfights or that not getting kills = 4v5.

lol ive done teamfights and made a 1v5 as one man to a 2v1 in about 40 seconds

She makes too many plays and does a lot of damage, can't be nerfed. Duh

LeBlanc could probably use a nerf. She's kind of everywhere in the LCS atm, even seems to have overtaken Ahri recently. What I have noticed as regards weaknesses is how she seems to just disappear if she doesn't get ahead, being absolutely terrified of team fights and needing a miracle to actually do something useful while behind. But she gets ahead quite easily and her ability to get away from virtually anything is pretty much unparalleled.

I feel like adding a slight delay on the bounce back from Distortion would be the best way to deal with her.

In all honestly . LB just needs some counter play in her dashes. At least make them visible while inside bushes as well as making her have to wait half a second after pushing the button to go back while making the pad blink. I feel like that's enough to solve her issues.

if they added a delay she wouldnt be viable because she is so squishie.

To be honest, Azir was really toxic. LB is pretty really stupid tho.

ApplyForAGrant2 votes

Just add a short delay (~0.5s) before she can distort back, and have the delay reset when she pops her Sigil with Chains. It adds a short window of vulnerability when LB can be focused, and it punishes her for making mechanical mistakes.

Either that or flat out nerf her damage/cd/range like they did with Azir and Kass, but not as harshly.

  • Can't farm well late game.
  • Can't jump into a team fight and relies on picks.
  • Doesn't do very much if behind in lane.
  • High cooldowns at early levels.

In exchange for her mediocre late game and teamfighting, she gets the benefit of being a lane bully. If she gets far ahead, she can snowball. Otherwise, she's kind of lackluster.

Annoying to play against? Yes.

Overpowered/broken? No.

Very Hard Engage1 votes

shes a flashy playmaker. her early lane damage needs nerfs, however against a team full of banshees veils she becomes quite irrelevant needing to wait for CD's and resets to kill most people.

IcyPepper1 votes

And Azir, Syndra, and Kassadin aren't?

In the right hands, their plays are flashy as hell. Even flashier than Leblanc, if you ask me. Except for the orbs just popping into existence, Syndra's spells look awesome, Azir's ultimate is badass to the extreme, and Kassadin is more flashy than a college freshman during a hazing ritual.

LB has cooldowns? Her ultimate is like the 2nd lowest ult cooldown in the game (beaten by Diana only). With 40% CDR she can literally use all her spells every 10 seconds, and they are a ton of CDR items that work great on her.

Akali Anivia Corki Kassadin KogMaw Maokai Swain Teemo

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Malkoi? Does it just drain Mana when you use it or what?

KaisadiIIa1 votes

You can activate at a cost of mana per second, until you reactivate it again to detonate it. Then it enters on a regular cooldown.

Junkο2 votes

Akali,Corki and Teemo all need to be charged for longer than 24 seconds. Also except for maybe Teemo they really don't build CDR.

Anivia, Maokai and Swain are toggles.

I guess Kassadin and Kog are fair, even though both of them are unviable and their ults are just weaker spells of already existing basic spells or ultimates.

When is le broken getting nerfed?

I don't think they're going to nerf wukong for quite a while unfortunately

Zahz1 votes

they arent nerfing her because she isnt overpowered. She only does one thing and thats assassinate. She doesnt take objectvies well, she doesnt farm very good till later when she has decent items, any form of CC means insta death, and she pops like a balloon.

Problem is people dont wanna ward and so she gets a lot of free chances to burst back line carries

They've nerfed Zed's instant teleport back to safety, they should do the same with LeBlanc.

zed has completely different set of skills and has little to do with leblanc. Should we nerf zeds ad damage since he can split push and take objectives but leblanc cant?

Trias0001 votes

I'm glad you're bringing that up. Yes, of course we should.
