@Meddler On LeBlanc

I'll start by saying this isn't a bashing post or negative post, but here is my experience on LB.

Background: Not going to say where I found out, but I learned through some means that Riot did not like the Silence in game mechanic so it was removed from as many champions as possible. Including LB and the champ I used to use a lot to beat LB, Talon.

Concern: I finally got back into ranked in the past two weeks, and I've noticed there is a huge amount of LeBlanc players, they either go mid or support. The issue is that I don't feel there is a proper way to deal with a LeBlanc. Unless the LeBlanc is of lower skill to mine, I am guaranteed to lose lane, and in most of my cases, the game entirely. If I happen to defeat her at mid, she just roams around with the immense amount of mobility and crushes my other lanes.

Of course we can ward and anticipate her incoming attack, but the problem is, unless I pick a specific champion that can match her mobility, I may not be able to make the difference.

So I suppose LB herself may not be the problem, it may be her mobility. It is extremely difficult to catch a LB, and it is extremely difficult to punish one, an issue that arises with lee sin, Kalista, and Zed. I believe though LB is far more dangerous than any of these other champs. Her skills do insane amounts of damage and have very low cool downs. Once a competent LB gets a small lead, it becomes near impossible to stop her.

With that said, Have you considered any gameplay changes on her? Such as making her W have a smaller time frame to re-activate? or Do you consider LeBlanc to be in a good state? If so, please explain why. Thanks.

PS. People think Zed and Nidalee are bad, wait till you fight a good LeBlanc, then you'll know what hell is.
