@riot: please fix leona's passive

shyv·Mar 15, 2016·2 votes·449 views

leona is my main. combined across several accounts i have ~200k mastery on her. i love playing her and she's the reason i got out of silver last season, my absolute favourite champ

BUT i find i'm enjoying support way less in season 6 and i almost never play it anymore

all i ask is for this tiny, insignificant change that will not buff or change support leona AT ALL

please allow leona to proc her own passive on neutral monsters

i jungle leona pretty often. her clear is unbearable and her passive is completely wasted

i don't like the fact that if i want to play my main i'm confined to bot lane babysitting. her passive is only useful in a duo lane.

pls consider.

They won't buff jungle Lana for the same reason they won't buff jungle Ali: their ganks are nigh-impossible to recover from, if their clears would be any stronger, they would be terror.

but that's not really specific to leona and alistar in the jungle role is it? if a leona happened to roam mid lane and fuck up the mid laner it's basically the same thing as playing her jungle. sure, her gank potential is amazing, but there aren't really any benefits of playing her over someone like lee sin or elise.

There aren't supposed to be. She already has a perfectly stable, viable position in the bot lane. If she casually competed for jungle priority with two of the most dedicated early-game junglers there are, it'd be because she deserved nerfs.

i don't want to be confined to bot lane babysitting some bitchy vayne main and not having as big of an impact on the game as everyone else

don't give me that "supports CAN carry!" bullshit because you know i can't solo carry an entire team if they suck. i could do that on any other role.

Supports rule the bot lane.
Any carrying you could do with another champion, you could probably do with a support.

That said, I seriously doubt you could solo carry with any role.

ok you got me there

i can't solo carry on top lane because it's my worst role

Well yes there are, her ganks are way scarrier than even Lee's, and she would still be decent lategame - basically jungle Alistar once again.

I might be wrong OFC, Zenith Blade has kind of short range after all, but I think this is what Riot is scared of. I don't know if you were playing this game when jungle Ali was a thing, but you can trust me when I say Riot doesn't want junglers like this :D

Are you sure her clear speed is bad? I've played juggle Leona sometimes and didnt notice it, maybe I am just not experienced enough to notice the difference but her clear speed seems fine. Do you use attack speed runes on her?

shyvMar 15, 20161 votes

i use attack speed runes but

i also main shyvana

anything that takes me more than 5 seconds to clear a camp is unbearably slow for me lmao
