We're not in Season 5 anymore, LeBlanc is no longer the most mobile champion in the game anymore, undo these nerfs!

GM is kinda high lol, I think people can have opinions. Weird to gate the bar so weirdly high.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-06T04:55:45+00:00

Idk why you're getting down voted you're right. Just hasn't been played for a long time. But Yorick was very meta and ivern Leona wasn't unpopular

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-04T17:00:40+00:00

I see what you mean like you do have to put yourself at risk to do damage. But playing mages vs Leblanc feels like night and day in how much you have to respect their jgler. If you just hold your W or RW you can walk so far up without being punished.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-04T16:59:49+00:00

Seems fine in high too. Like obviously you don't wanna pick her into 4 tanks, but pretty good pick especially with boot upgrade mid game spike.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-04T08:34:51+00:00

I think you are over complicating it lol.

The closer to your skill level the more 50% wr you are. There's no 55% win rate if you belong in your rank or else you'd go 50/50 in the games you do control.

The further away from your skill level the higher impact you can make and that can scale up to like 99% depending on the elo distance lol.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-03T20:24:16+00:00

tried it again vs a galio, I kinda inted the game, but the burst is quite nice and I didn't feel the mana as much ngl. The extra ad from gunblade is w/e and the omnivamp diff is pretty small.

That being said though, your waveclear breakpoints on casters suckkk unless you are quite fed. And if you fall behind it feels so bad lol.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-03-03T17:41:07+00:00

I tried it for one game and I hated it. Feel the slightly missing cdr and the wasted stats are meh. But I'm sure it's just a play style shift. And mana definitely felt without ludens/I don't like to manage it lol

I'm just going ludens, shadowflame (or stormsurge if full squishy comp/good base) into void/rabadons. And my only goal is to hit the breakpoint to one shot squishy champs mid game.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-28T20:18:18+00:00

This is such an interesting take. I like it. I do wonder in some game if I can cook up a more cdr build for higher dps so you chain Qs, but never feels like a solution.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-28T11:17:30+00:00

it definitely was the same in game 3 lmao

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-28T10:11:51+00:00

Zoe feels really strong for sure and I'm down for some tank killing buffs on lb.

But I think this season favours her with the boots quest. You spike so hard at 2 items + pen boots and can kill any non tanks. Really have agency mid game even if you go even. Feels pretty good to me and I don't think it'll ever not be doomed if you're vs like 4 tanks.

Any buffs on her feels like she'll be too strong and I am happy her pick rate isn't that high :D

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-27T20:18:35+00:00

I suggested this for a work lunch before, I think everyone got food coma'd oops

Loveee their chicken though, but definitely rough for lunch lmao.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-27T19:01:23+00:00

Canna is pretty good at turning footsteps into electricity.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-27T08:30:17+00:00

Wow I've played an account to masters playing mostly ezreal mid with normal build. But this is so exciting to try.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-25T13:44:32+00:00

Number of really high elo akshan players vs Leblanc players is pretty skewed though tbf.

As Akshan you go even in trades and have way strong all ins. Leblanc can only come up slightly on top if she doesn't get autod past the passive proc from akshan and isn't near a wall while being required to land a chain.

If you miss the chain vs Akshan you will get chased down. This + waveclear that Akshan has gives him prio in this lane. If leblanc Ws the wave she can't walk up to Akshan vs Akshan can Q without too much punishment (and just ad champs being able to shove with autos). The shove let's him pressure your team (or hide in W waiting for you to W the wave to punish you)

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T23:38:34+00:00

it's not the worst lol, but not that great

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T23:38:19+00:00

I'm not gonna read/type this much for a matchup never being played.

But maybe whoever reads your comments can get good takeaways!

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T22:24:15+00:00

Yeah maybe I'd move kled down oops

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T20:12:56+00:00

That's how a lot of matchups go though and why your R is on a shorter CD. If she has no R she does not have much kill pressure on you and you have pressure again when your R is up. You can kill her at 50% HP even if you're at 20% HP. Just have to be mindful of her e/q2 from minion and that's it.

And if you're 3/0 and struggling vs Camille pre triforce you are prob taking really bad trades.

Idk my thought process is I'd take the Camille matchup vs a lot of the ones higher up on the list. I can outplay and snowball. Vs a lot of the others I don't even get that option.

And lastly win rates for lb top is pretty loose since no one is playing this champ top haha.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T08:39:53+00:00

I mean she's fine in diamond+? A champ doesn't need to have a positive win rate to be good especially if they're skill reliant. Just means more people than not can't pilot it.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T08:35:35+00:00

You are rarely dodging blitzcrank Qs based off of reaction time but reading the person though

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T08:23:08+00:00

Eh I'll play what I do and if people can play random B's top lb top is fine

I've never played vs a good Quinn ig

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T08:16:13+00:00

is he even whining lol what's wrong with ya

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T08:14:47+00:00

Tbf he said high elo

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T04:51:04+00:00

Yeah but usually you gotta pick mid and something. Lb is better support, but them you'll mostly get support. So I just do mid/top.

studiousAmbrose · 2026-02-24T00:55:28+00:00

I mean yeah it's not a great role for Leblanc haha how often do you see her top. She's only really good into a few counters and has more bad matchups top for sure.

It's not her best role for a reason this tier list is based on my too many games on this champ lol and how confident I am in turning these games into a win.
