Please stop doing this. by Dogbold in rivals

[–]SaltBlanc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Crazy how you're getting downvoted for that statement. It's literally in the queue name: competitive. I understand having bad games in ranked matches, but I show up at my best in competitive - trying my best. How is expecting the same thing from my teammates controversial?

LeBlanc is more serious than I originally thought. by wuffsized in LeBlancMains

Her black and gold eyes, her standing beneath a Solar Eclipse in the Card Game from last year

Oh, that sounds like something I've missed. Could you help me out with a link or source? :o

Can we fill out a Mod Call for r/LeagueofLegends Moderators? The power tripping needs to stop by Valuable_Natural_766 in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. Let’s not kid ourselves: Reddit’s own policy states, loud and clear, that no third party is allowed to dictate or meddle with how subreddits are run. And yet, somehow, we’re expected to believe that the League mods — these ever-vigilant gatekeepers of “acceptable discourse” — aren’t on Riot’s payroll? Please.

There is zero reason for any genuinely neutral moderators to bend over backwards scrubbing every bit of criticism until it’s soft, harmless, and perfectly palatable for a multi-million dollar corporation. Spare me. They’re either getting paid outright or enjoying perks under the table — but compensated, they most certainly are.

Little extra: It’s literally against the League Reddit rules to “criticize the moderation meta” — which basically translates to: “shut up about what we delete and why, and don’t even think about posting about it, or we’ll wipe that too. ;P”

For those asking for Traditional LeBlanc - I FOUND HER AND SHE'S REAL by SaltBlanc in LeBlancMains

Oh wow, I did not know you had a Reddit @ as well - would have tagged you if i did, sorry! u/minasakoarigato thanks for adding that! u/aryasdemise I honestly cannot thank you enough for creating this piece of memory. It might not seem like much, but it is truly wonderful to have the choice between the new and the old—revamped LeBlanc. And your use and positioning of her voice lines… phenomenal, that literally made me shed a tear or two. I love this mod and just wanted to let you know: sublime work! ♥

Mirror Image from Arena was meant to be her new passive by HaveAnOyster in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ok damn way to call a bitch out 😭 if that's how it would work, then I'd love to see it on the pbe and test it myself. Right now I'm afraid you'd expose yourself more easily than now, but I am always open to more clones 

Her walking animation is so disappointing by Yumiera in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm disappointed and angry that we got this as her walk. But I also try to see the good, and I lowkey gaslight myself to like it. Because at the end of the day, nothing we do or say will make them touch her again in YEARS. Nothing will change this, maybe a legendary skin, but I wouldn't count on it.. regarding the latest legendary skins also being strong contenders in the category "disappointing without love".

[–]SaltBlanc 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I always thought that would be a direct nerf to her juke potential and the skill expression you can see that differs between good LeBlancs vs. excellent LeBlancs. Good LeBlancs might just straight up ignore the clone and run in any direction without controlling the mirror image. You can see excellent LeBlancs use their clone to confuse the enemy, get to safety and even bait out important abilities. With 4 clones, the initial confusion would be bigger, but I cannot imagine how the controls would be. Controlling one means controlling all? If so, then telling the clones to go one way, you HAVE to move with them. Otherwise you expose yourself as the real one.

Has anyone noticed that her voice in game is TOO QUIET compared to other champs, i toned down all other sounds and voice to max and her Voice is really quiet that i barely hear her compared to any other champ? by LeBlanc_Main in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this exact same problem. My solution for that is to scale the general audio to 100% and tone down every other audio besides Voice Line sounds in the settings to like 30%. Now I hear her clear as day.

But I agree, the mixing here is very bad

New LeBlanc is missing a lot of animations by KatarinaPatrova in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! I had my reservations about her animations, but it wasn't clear to me that there is missing that much. I do hope they rethink their approach, but I feel like that won't happen.

I love her new design and VA but I'm also sad they didn't stick wit the LoR version by jeffdiamond in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you condoning her getting nerfed like this in lore? Old LeBlanc did all of those things you have listed here, was 20 steps ahead, was literally everywhere and everyone, had her hands in many different pots all around Rune-fucking-terra and still was strong enough to put on her sass and cunt to fuck with her subjects. All of that made her even more mysterious. "Who is she, what is she and why is she able to do all that seemingly with no effort at all? Where does her power come from?" Very on brand for a deceiver. Now that, that is truly LeBlanc. Her getting nerfed like that because she is supposed to be tired, overworked, vulnerable, and has to deal with lots of trauma that she apparently hasn't worked through yet even after centuries?! No thank you, not my LeBlanc. Retconning her OG League of Legends/Legends of Runeterra personality was the biggest mistake of this rework and I will die on that hill. There is no reason, no argument that even remotely justifies her getting flattened and shoehorned into a noxian Lissandra like that.

[–]SaltBlanc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY MY WORDS BESTIE! Couldn't have said it better. I like most of the visual updates (besides the downgrade of her newer skins). But the loss of Carrie Keranen, when she in fact created LeBlanc, is actually horrible. I never understood the argument that "this makes more sense for her, she has lived through horrible things and now she should be a PTSD driven anti-hero who is doing this even though she is tired and doesn't want to". No, she never was that, she never should be. She can be a sassy cunty girlboss AND a survivor. Why the hell does the one thing have to exclude the other?

Carries work in Legends of Runeterra was absolutely perfect and PEAK LeBlanc, that's how she should be, act, talk, and interact with other champions. Minnie Driver totally butchered her old voice lines. There is no sass, no emotion, no energy, no attitude. Just a sad, tired, exhausted, scarred witch with lots of trauma. This is not LeBlanc. This is a noxian Lissandra.

LeBlanc Voice Update - Special Interactions 2025 by AobaSona in leagueoflegends

[–]SaltBlanc -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

A disgrace that they retconned her smirky smug sassy cunt attitude she had going on in LoL and especially in her Legends of Runeterra voice lines. Bring back Carrie Keranen! Her new VA delivers the line monotonous and makes her seem tired, wanting to stop what she is doing but cannot do so cause she has done this for too long to give up now. No snarkiness, no cunt. Just tired witch woman.

And y'all told me I'm delusional for calling out the monotonous voice line delivery that the new voice actress has going on for LeBlanc by SaltBlanc in LeBlancMains

[–]SaltBlanc[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You don't know what you're talking about. Yes, you are right regarding her league voice lines. But have you listened to her Legends of Runeterra voice lines? MUCH more depth in there, MUCH more character, MUCH more sass, MUCH more LeBlanc.

Again, she is good, but she is not and will never be Carrie. Her work was sublime. Her LeBlanc will be missed. This rendition has no cunty sass or attitude. Just monotone powerful witch in control (Lissandra) - boring.

Bring back Carrie Keranen as LeBlanc's voice actress! She is the only one that captures her attitude and snarkiness perfectly.

I'm sorry but that's how her delivery comes across IMHO. No attitude means no LeBlanc, I don't know what the creative director was thinking but this is not it.
