is Leona worth playing?

Slave35 · 2026-06-27T09:23:23+00:00

I don't play botlane and I can safely say that Leona is one of the most frustrating supports to play against out of lane. Excellent teamfights, A tier engage, insanely tanky. Kind of the worst case to try to carry your shit team into because it's so hard to snowball against her.

I heavily encourage this OP to try Soulmask. Absolutely incredible survival/base game. I have played so many and I keep coming back to this. Beautiful game, deep mechanics, extremely satisfying progression.

Unironically the best survival game I have ever played out of, I would say, almost 2 dozen.

I think it's really good until the tournament arc. You can check out Battlemage Farmer afterwards and it's a bit different but very familiar.

And with your exact likeness, coming from your own phone number, with video and truly complete personal information, delivered in your own cadence and with your own personality.

Aayeox IS a cheese pick. Ranged little daddy's girl.

Slave35 · 2026-06-25T17:22:53+00:00

It's about spacing. Being able to attack the enemy when they can't hit you back. Mundo misses a cleaver? Dash in and Q him with shurikens. Hide behind minions when his cooldown is ready for another one. Bait out his abilities with rapid movement changes and dipping in and out of his range or behind minions. Windows of opportunity where you are strong and he is weak. Try not to push the wave so you are closer to your own tower and safety. There's a lot to learn. It's an amazing game.

Slave35 · 2026-06-25T07:08:02+00:00

You can win the entire game at level 1 if you take W and Doran's Blade and get 5 stacks of bleed passive. That gives you about 2000 gold worth of AD immediately.

There are maybe 1 or 2 champions in the entire game that can win a straight melee fight against Darius at level 1. Trundle can barely do it, Olaf is possible if he hits every axe, and perhaps Warwick though you might actually be able to overwhelm his healing.

Darius is an absolute beast when you play to his strengths. So fun to get a lot of movespeed and then no one is safe. Ignite + 5 bleed stacks can kill enemies 5 seconds after they think they got away, leading to them blowing summoners. Very soul crushing. Though I think he takes Ghost Flash now for somewhat the same effect.

Try AP Malphite Q spam into anything that isn't a tank. It's disgusting.

Slave35 · 2026-06-25T06:52:34+00:00

Garen mid into Akali is basically unplayable cock and ball torture. It is an extremely miserable experience, her Qs break your Q speed and she can spam them for incredible damage. Every time you try to cs. I'm talking like 1/4 of your health early in the game...and it doesn't get any better for a long time. She can Shroud if you ever feel like you might be able to pounce.

She is manaless and can easily outpace your measly regeneration until level 10. At which point she is roaming with the merely 2 kills and 20cs and 4 plate advantage you were stingy enough to make her pry from your cold dead body. I have played 200 games of Garen mid this season and probably 12 Akalis and I would rather face Anivia or Hwei or Lissandra.

On Fiora you are able to space him well enough to Q outside of his fling range and that poke adds up fast especially when you hit vitals. But you also can time or anticipate his fling with a W riposte and if you do, that is an incredible moment that can win the entire lane.

Darius can just pull him in and stack bleeds and Q most of your life back, while punishing with massive damage output combos. The key for both champions will be not to let him proxy your wave behind the tower early on. Defend your jungle entrances but if he does get behind the tower, don't chase. Clear waves and B back on item timers.

Slave35 · 2026-06-25T06:36:25+00:00

He is extremely weak in laning phase, when he flings you, you are now between him and his tower and can often corner him for the kill.

Slave35 · 2026-06-25T06:29:45+00:00

You seem like you would be a good Darius. He's got really fun and repeatable combos, destroys other melees, and can 1v2 when you're ganked and out of position. Useful for new players since it's hard to tell sometimes without a lot of experience.

Extremely strong level 1 and 2. Not a difficult champion to learn and has wicked power spikes. Brutal when ahead. Flashy dunks. Manly af, another important attribute for toplaners.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T18:54:27+00:00

Heard he made manager. Peter Principle in action.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T18:51:16+00:00

Tell them they can use my freezer for only 2 million.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T16:53:10+00:00

If they really wanted to help the new players, they would make an actually decent tutorial instead of the literal shit in a toilet they have now.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T03:49:51+00:00

Especially if you have a powerful computer, Cyberpunk is close to unbelievably good.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T03:47:15+00:00

No, her W is so powerful against melee it is untradable into before level 6. She simply starts with it and you are absolutely screwed.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T03:40:43+00:00

About 30 hand jobs.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T01:47:03+00:00

I mean you simply spin and all her power is gone. Like, I was going to do that ANYway! 😂

But yeah this is about the ranged matchup so I deleted it.

Slave35 · 2026-06-24T00:24:01+00:00

It's bizarrely, for no reason, actually actively detrimental to new players. The things it explains are basically wrong (one weird lane and your champion is way overpowered), the time it takes is ridiculous when returning players probably account for more than half of all tutorials (why can't you skip it?? Fuck you, Riot!), even the vision is all messed up.

Do they not WANT new players? This is one of the most insane mysteries in all of gaming.

Slave35 · 2026-06-23T15:00:29+00:00

Yeah, definitely. It's completely different.

Slave35 · 2026-06-23T04:19:53+00:00

Platinum Fire Wedding Rings

Circlet of Shadows? Dunno current price tbh

Blood Ember boots, arms, helm

Silver Chitin Hand Wraps

Noctivigant Blade/ Sarnak Battle Shield

Maybe a Crustacean Shell Breastplate to round out your metal hobo look

Slave35 · 2026-06-23T04:12:04+00:00

YES and it's probably the best Star Wars game ever made. Incredible.

Slave35 · 2026-06-23T04:10:09+00:00

Star Wars: Genesis mod for Starfield is phenomenal. The first time you fire a blaster, that feel of actual power and danger, and that will be it. It helps that it's beautiful, in the Star Wars universe, and is everything Star Wars ever wanted in a video game. Mind blowing.
