The Earth is flat.

but how?

we clearly measured the circumference of the earth, using Leblanc 's chain of coarse

5000000000000000Feb 2, 20175 votes

That wouldn't be very accurate. The earth's circumference is just a fraction of LeBlanc's chain length.

ZenaniiFeb 2, 20178 votes

Obviously we didn't use all of her chain. We needed some of it to measure the distance to the moon as well.

TequilaZombieFeb 2, 20177 votes

Which of Jupiter's moons are you talking about?

ZenaniiFeb 2, 20177 votes

Oh, that's cute. You think I'm talking about our solar system.

DracocrashFeb 1, 20178 votes

Did they change the range of her snare? I haven't been up to date with patch notes for a while, and last I remember the chain was the least annoying part of her kit.

Glory ln DeathFeb 1, 201717 votes

Nope. It's just the circlejerk flavor-of-the-week rant.

EnloctFeb 1, 201714 votes

I noticed it was surprisingly long before the update. Now I can see just how long, though. And its bullshit.

Riot: we want counterplay against leblanc. Riot //gives lb a spell that no mage can ever escape from even if lb and the opponent walk opposite directions Riot //proceeds to buff more champions to drop her banrate and pretend everything is cool

Glory ln DeathFeb 2, 20177 votes

Riot: We want counterplay against Leblanc. Riot //changes Leblanc's chain so that it no longer slows chained targets and reduces the damage of the ability. Makes no other changes to the ability.

Community: Leblanc's chain is OP now, even though it is actually weaker than before.

Fondling GemsFeb 2, 20176 votes

To be fair it applies both procs of her passive making it a comparatively much more powerful part of her kit as it leads to very guaranteed damage without much worry of timing even if the ability itself doesn't do much damage.

Glory ln DeathFeb 2, 20172 votes

Which is why they removed the 25% slow.

Yaśuo MainFeb 2, 20174 votes

and that compensates the E being the size of Saturn's ring?

Glory ln DeathFeb 2, 20173 votes

It's the same size as it was before the assassin update, and is now actually easier to break since they removed the slow. Nobody complained about the chain length before the update, did they? Why are they complaining about it now, when it's easier to break?

Oh, that's right. Flavor of the week circlejerk.

Velzard of KozFeb 2, 20172 votes

While I agree this is just fotw circlejerk, I think the initial reason why this circlejerk has started is her Passive. I believe her Passive now deals more damage than original orb detonation, plus the time frame (the delay) was supposed to be window of opportunity to deny her the proc, while the chain makes it guaranteed proc even from giant distance.

So I think the original complaint was because of interaction of her chain and new Passive, rather than the chain itself.

Glory ln DeathFeb 2, 20172 votes

Yeah, the chain popping her passive can be annoying. But the length of the chain is fine.

LankPantsFeb 2, 20172 votes

The chain alone now procs Thunderlords, which is utter bullshit.

Velzard of KozFeb 2, 20172 votes

Just as I feared. The range is indeed a little too rewarding for her, however with this tempo it will become yet another empty rant for upvote farming.

Same went with sighstones some months ago. They remained unchanged for months, then somebody posted complaint post that got tons of upvotes and moments later several different highly upvoted topics on front page, all sounding very serious as If posted by someone enlightened with totally original thought, all about the same thing, all just happening to appear after months of silence about the topic after that one.

Also with Caitlyn traps recieveing Azir treatment. Silence, silence, one highly upvoted topic, suddenly 20 highly upvoted topics about the same thing out of blue, silence, silence, another topic about it after some time, suddenly 20 same topics from different people, silence, silence... Recently someone posted it again, I already anticipate new ones incoming.

I mean it must be flat, else all of those missed ashe arrows, missed jinx ults, and ez shots, would rap back around into other games.

/end of of world.

So why are we not complaining about Thresh by this logic? Or Blitz pull?

It's not like her's doesn't have a delay or anything.

SpongebobIsLifeFeb 2, 20172 votes

bc thresh and blitz dont have 2 massive dashes/blinks...

Why do they need a blink if they can just pull the target to them and build tanky?
Why are you not attacking a squishy trying to stun you to begin with? It's like trying to kite when you are better off standing because of the lack of delay between attacks. Or trying to run from a Yi ult with Ashe. Get some damage in if your going to die or not die. Either way, the solution is to attack.

3TWarriorFeb 2, 20171 votes

actually, no, unless your support has high damage values in such a case, it would be pointless to attack and would instead be better to either flee or stun the opponent such as with ashe's own ultimate

hopefully your support would have a stun or root ready as well, otherwise, ashe and almost any ADC will die to an advancing yi if there is not a clear window of safety

Why would a leblanc be bot lane?

3TWarriorFeb 4, 20171 votes

because leblanc ADC is a thing in some alternate universe...

Also, it isn't pointless to attacj if you know running will get you killed. Sometimes doing damage is better than running.

3TWarriorFeb 4, 20171 votes

if you have high enough damage, sure, but everything is situational. The only things which are not are whether you live or die, that happens regardless of composition.

if the opponents are backing off but yi is taking advantage of your health levels, it's probably best to run

if you have a jungler nearby who can help, try to delay and harm the opponent

it's all situational

KoggyStyleFeb 4, 20171 votes

ive seen it work on aram....

48983507DEL1Feb 2, 20172 votes

It's not the attach range, it's the leash range.

If they didn't want people to be able to get out of its range, then why even make it a possibility?

The fact that it outranges Flash in almost every case makes you question why it's not a guaranteed snare. The only people who can get out of it are the likes of Ezreal, Ahri, and Riven.
