Bjergsen showing in LCS why LB is ridiculous.

In the TSM vs TiP game going on currently, Bjergsen shows us exactly why (not his crazy plays, as it was pretty straight forward) LeBlanc is kind of silly with her mobility at the very least.

Lee Sin was in the blue buff area, ward hops over the wall, LB follows him over. Lee Ult kicks her back over the blue pit, she just LB jumps BACK to him. Lee Flashes the wall to his own mid turret. LB follows, her jump comes off cooldown finally, she jumps, kills Lee under his own turret, then just jumps out safely.

Why should any champion have this much mobility? When you have zero safety anywhere on the map and can kick her over a wall to still be followed over TWO walls and killed under your turret...that is a bit silly. It wasn't even as if the LB was fed, cause at the time he only had 2 kills, so it wasn't a fed LB doing this, nor great mechanical plays.

I don't get it.

She out-mobility'd a Lee Sin who burned a flash and his ult.

Now, I'm not a huge fan of Lee Sin, but even I feel sorry for him.

I could understand this type of mobility a little better if she couldn't also 100-0 me in 1 second.

One or the other but both is a little silly.

LB is just incredibly sloppy and trashy design.

People say DOTA has broken designs with heroes that have way too much power in their kits.

LeBlanc would actually be permaban in DOTA (removing her passive). There is no hero in DOTA with as much mobility as LeBlanc. Not Antimage, not QOP, not Specter. Nobody.

The truth about that match:

Xiaoweixiao chose a weak pick against leblanc
He then DOESN'T USE MR GLYPHS FOR SOME WEIRD REASON
Bjergsen then gets midlane help from both jungler and support
Xiaoweixiao then doesn't build MR to prevent all-ins from happening.

But yeah, keep complaining about leblanc for doing what an assassin is supposed to do when played well and not respected by the opponent.

I don't even play or own leblanc but this thread is unfair.

Lb is a perfectly balanced champ.

I love Bjerg and all, but they kept making a big deal out of the kills. A majority of them were WQRE -> W blink backs over and over. Just give her the delay on her W like Zed got for his R so there is some risk to her taking 50-60% of your health instantly on a low cooldown.

I was thinking the EXACT same thing when I was watching the game. LB needs to be gutted like Kassadin was. The win rate on LB by pro players has to be around 80%. I'm sorry, but NO ONE is that good playing against other pros.

She's getting nerfed next patch.

what if riot buffed the damage on her distortion, but removed the ability to go back after casting it? Just a thought. (Obviously, the damage buff is there to compensate for the lost mobility.)

For the record

LeBlanc was level 10 with 124 cs and 2 kills

Lee sin was level 7 with 41 cs 0 kills 0 assists and 1 death

Lee sin's only defensive item was sightstone lel

Now as for the play

LeBlanc W jumps to Lee then hits him with her chain Lee sin ward hops to a nearby pink ward towards LeBlanc then kicks her then flashes to turret Bjergsen follows with r then for like a second contemplates about going in He then FLASHES and then uses W

LeBlanc should be killing Lee sin easily. 3 levels ahead as an assassin and Lee sin has no defensive stats?? That Lee sin is a free atm for any assassin in this game with the kind of advantage bjergsen had

But... She was two kills up, had a large amount of CS, 3 levels and an item spike. If she didn't kill Lee Sin I would be surprised.

Something I find stupid about LB is her E, no, not the hitbox, what I hate is how easy it is to proc the root, unless you're a champ with a dash or you burn flash (And sometimes even those don't help), literally, all she has to do is walk the same direction as you and it will proc the root. It's like, why is there even a two step process to this to begin with?

You have also shown us, why and how you have no life, and are a person who can fap at a rate of 2000 faps per second world record breaking that previous one by 1999. Congratulations sir, here is your award. 8========>

You need rediculously overloaded kits and OP champs like LB for bronze V pro's like Bjergsen to main them so they look way better than they actually are.. need I remind you of MSI anyone? anyone? no? ok cool.
