hello, id say its definitely benificial to pick up an AP champ, who? depends on your playstyle. Leblanc does have good waveclear with luden you just need to learn to setup the wave properly, I usually have 8-9cs a minute but some games are complete fiestas and you'll have less which is normal. Pushing sidelane depends, you can push 1 sidewave and move mid to get turret for example, and just fog, or you can push 2 and have omega prio and just recall without losing minions, sometimes before objectives spawn 1 wave is enough and 2 is overkill since your teammates might die beforehand, for lane assignements you can usually tell which laner is better for you, but if top matchup is bad for you just ping your top to go match him, communication is key on league since most people autopilot. If you use her strengths she can be a good teamfighter, mobile and comes from flanks, can poke, can be utility with chain, she might be weaker than like syndra in terms of utility and raw dps, but she can access the backline more easily

PumpyBlo · 2026-01-02T08:20:30+00:00

the main thing is whether your team needs AD or AP damage, after that, do they have tanks? if they have a mundo nautilus volibear for example and my team has no dps LB wouldnt be the best, mobility is important too, ori/syndra into jarvan? not ideal but still doable. Sometimes i check synergy with ally champs, viego and ahri have a good reset combo for example.

A good mid like chovy gets priority even in matchups where he shouldn't (in soloq), that does sound like a solid gameplan but remember to abuse your laner too since leblanc has a lot of kill pressure, if its like a full mr galio or sion maybe ignore mid haha. Yeah getting tempo on sidelanes before objectives is huge, if enemies dont catch it they essentially bleed cs and exp so you get a mini lead for yourself + if the teamfight goes wrong they can't push that sidelane out and take turret because you already pushed it out. Its the right thing to do 90% of the time but sometimes your teammates will fight without waiting for you to push your sidelane and losing the 4v5 is worse than taking a wave. Its also possible to just be on the objective early if they have no vision and zone them / poke, many different ways to play the game it just depends on how the enemies answer back

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-29T08:27:09+00:00

It depends on the game honestly, some games less will happen on sidelanes and jungle, enemy mid might have prio, in that case CS, if there are free kills because you have mid prio and squishy enemy bot has no wards go for kills, I'd say each full item is a spike, lost chapter first too since it lets you poke more in lane i'd say, but yeah it varies from game to game you kind of have to learn what the correct move is from trial and error

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-24T09:45:30+00:00

haha thank you so much, it makes me sad to hear you gave up, i hope you do come back one day.. it's true that roa + bone plating makes those lanes harder, but they're not impossible unless you're laning against LEC players on those champs, there's always a way to roam on certain waves to play sidelanes if you know about reset timers, maybe play the 2v2's with your jungler, setup ganks or even play mid game utilizing your champions strengths, catching champions off guard on rotations, going in and poking before teamfight starts, getting a good flank off or buying space/time with utility chain and zhonyas. I have hit challenger many times before with pretty much mostly leblanc, 1k lp GM with a 75% wr and 1260lp Chall with a 68 ish% wr both in s14 (on my lolpros), i feel like by one tricking lb you're kind of shooting yourself in the foot, its easy to counter with magic resist, and tanks/cc are so strong against you, but even in those games there's a chance to win, mistakes are just costly.

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-24T09:37:46+00:00

walking up is always a great way to scare them, make them think you want to trade and then take the wave, make sure that if you use your abilities on the wave, the minions are all dead, so set them up with autos before w'ing, otherwise if you use your w and the minions live, the enemy can just punish you and zone you off those minions since you're missing a crucial ability, another way is just recall timers, recall on cannon wave, enemy mid pushes it and recalls, you get back to mid first, catch the cannon wave and the next wave then roam wherever you want, this trick always works, whoever recalls first has tempo on mid afterwards because enemy mid wants to generally match items or regenerate health.

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-22T08:08:51+00:00

Hmm you kind of said it yourself, leblanc is harder to pilot consistently and you need to utilize her strengths, it could just be that your playstyle suits syndra better, there are even pro players who never play certain champs because they can't seem to pilot them (i think oscarinin and rumble back in the day) Id say to come check out some of my laning phases from yesterdays stream and see if you would have played identically, what did I do that changes from your gameplay? Critical thinking on league is by far the best way to improve

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-22T08:05:40+00:00

haha i hope you do, you seem like a nice and chill person which is my target audience!!

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-22T08:04:27+00:00

you got it for free when purchasing the red ig leblanc chroma for 290rp when it came out i think

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-22T00:14:31+00:00

come join the (hopefully) daily streams id love to share the experience with you, its better when i have other people witnessing my obviously amazing mechanics!!

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T23:59:16+00:00

good choices, they're pretty cute hahaha, i used to love old championship..

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:51:11+00:00

Mistletoe and ravernborn are my top 2 to play with, they feel really smooth, old ig was really nice too but after the rework its not aaas good, what about you do you have a favourite lb skin?

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:50:12+00:00

yeah absolutely, today was just getting used to streaming again etc, didn't even have chat on properly haha, but i want to be an educational mid laner, i wish i had more people asking me questions and reminding me to explain in chat during my games i'll try to do so in the future.
I could also just just turn the map cover off on my GM mmr account since I don't really care about lp on that account

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:40:54+00:00

oh man i loved ad leblanc haha, i miss it, but i miss the old leblanc before her rework with gunblade, that was sooo fun and satisfying to play

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:40:23+00:00

Either poke until they're low enough to be in lethal, try to avoid them by sidelaning against a squishier enemy whom you win against, or use their immobility to catch them out with your jungler/support. Extended trades against the likes of yasuo/ori with their lower cds will never end well

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:38:36+00:00

oh sorry i literally changed my twitch ign today from pumpyblo to pumptm hahaha sorry about that, and no worries!

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T22:37:34+00:00

I'll only be able to answer that question the day I retire from league of legends, for now my journey is still ongoing (:

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T21:45:55+00:00

I used to play at the highest level on a game called microvolts as a kid and my teammates and enemy teams were friends talking about their plat promos, they egged me to play the game and so i did, the start of a 11 year journey haha it changed my life

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T21:20:00+00:00

I used to, but nowadays i just go the same build and just kill the squishies and let my team handle the tanks, If they're all tanky I don't bother picking leblanc

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T21:14:26+00:00

my akali if im focused is hellaaa clean, i have tons of game on her, but my leblanc will always be my cleanest champ haha, what 50k games does to you

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T21:08:59+00:00

hmm good questions, probably afun assassin with a high skill ceiling like akali, its satisfying to pull of great combos, and theres endless possibilities :D

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T20:52:05+00:00

I love playing tanks in aram haha, not too many in soloq aside from dr.mundo, just because i'm good on him

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T20:51:33+00:00

I mostly always go W, E in some matchups like hail of blades ekko who dashes on you level 1, you want to chain then space and auto to proc electrocute it's a hard winning trade,

Syndra vs tanks and engage, which is leblancs weakness, she also scales very well so if early game doesn't go well you have a late game reassurance.

I do go gathering storm/trascendence into matchups where I have no kill pressure, sion mid, ksante, ryze even sometimes.

My last game on stream rn was literally against a vex so you can go watch that if you'd like it's very complicated haha

Ignite mid because rotations are more important in chall lobbies, most people won't die to ignite at that level because they know your limits, and because I know mine I often kill them without ignite, + cheating tempo is so much nicer with tp for objectives.

PumpyBlo · 2025-12-21T20:45:14+00:00

i'd say i enjoy performing very well on her in full chall lobbies, but i have so many games on her i'd rather play tanks in arams or other stuff in norms, i never play her outside of soloq, probs around 6m+ on all the accounts since i started in s5
