I love her kit a lot! But she is too small to block skillshots compared to tanks like Sion, Braum, etc.
Would it be too much to ask?
(Also, maybe a SMALL slow to Leona's W (like 10%), so atleast people don't run away from her so easily)
tseihei2 votesI say we just give her a big ass shield instead of actually changing her character dimensions. I think this would better keep her integrity/identity.
I don't really think leona needs much for buffs though, she isn't really weak IMO, but rather I believe she has super hard counters just due to her kit.
Silent Reaper1 votesThe thing is having a giant shield is "Braums thing"...
What if, when Leona used "W", the aura around her is considered part of her collision size, and after detonating it gives off a tiny slow (like 10%) ?
Ironclad Dragon2 voteslike Sion, Braum, etc.
Probably because they're meant to bigger than most tanks?
Silent Reaper1 votesMaybe you got a point? Though other tanks like Nautilus, and Malphite are also bigger than her. (I dont see any problem with her being larger aswell)
LanternToSafety2 votesi feel like a small slow on W (10% hypothetically like you said) would actually be a lot stronger than it sounds. I'm sure you've run into situations where your Q is ready and you're almost in range of their adc, but since your MS is so similar your only matching their pace. In that situation a light slow would allow for a lot of close stuns to happen.
-but im not really a big balancing expert so to really get any good info, wed have to do a bit more research :/
hope that helped a bit
Silent Reaper1 votesMost Leonas have their "W" trigger after their entire combo. I think it would help give her a little bit of a sustained presence after her initial combo.
PhantomGG2 votesLeonas issue is the following
-Her ult has a small hist box
-The E missle speed is sorta slow
-Very easily kite-able
-All or nothing champions
A champion should have weaknesses but those weaknesses should not cripple them competitively.
Silent Reaper1 votesI think it's good in a way that she's unreliable? (there is Counter play, and she has a heavy Counter, Janna) However I would like it that when she catch someone, it's gonna be really sweet.
The only thing stopping her from being played competitively is that she has no presence after the first 3 seconds. That's why I like the idea of a 10% slow.

You are most certainly right, and I completely enjoy your idea, however the point I am trying to make, a champions weakness shoulden't be this crippling, but it is for Leona.
