Strengths & weaknesses

Tools to play around

What can go wrong

  • Sigil of MalicePractise the hit area and target conditions first. Do not spend the rest of your rotation automatically when the opening damage misses.
  • DistortionDecide where you want to finish the movement before casting. Using mobility to enter a fight can leave fewer options to retreat.
  • A completed combo is only useful when your position, resources and follow-up are safe.

Abilities & tips

Open an ability to read its effect and a practical use tip.

PMirror Image

When LeBlanc drops below 40% Health, she becomes invisible for 1 second and creates a Mirror Image that deals no damage and lasts for up to 8 seconds.

Use it well

Check how the hidden state ends and what can reveal you. Choose a route before relying on concealment to approach or escape.

QSigil of Malice

LeBlanc projects a sigil, dealing damage and marking the target for 3.5 seconds. Damaging the marked target with an ability detonates the sigil, dealing additional damage. If either part kills the target, Leblanc refunds the Mana cost and part of this spell's remaining Cooldown.

Use it well

Practise the hit area and target conditions first. Do not spend the rest of your rotation automatically when the opening damage misses.

WDistortion

LeBlanc dashes to a location, dealing damage to enemies near her destination. For the next 4 seconds, activate Distortion again to return LeBlanc to her starting location.

Use it well

Decide where you want to finish the movement before casting. Using mobility to enter a fight can leave fewer options to retreat.

EEthereal Chains

LeBlanc launches a chain that shackles the first enemy hit. If the target remains shackled for 1.5 seconds, LeBlanc roots them and deals additional damage.

Use it well

Use this control to create a follow-up window. Check the target’s defensive spells and your teammates’ range before committing.

RMimic

LeBlanc casts a mimicked version of one of her basic spells.

Use it well

Read the effect and its conditions, then practise it alone. Build your sequence around the effect you can reliably reproduce.

LeBlanc combos: execution and timing

AA = basic attack · EAA = empowered attack · 1/2/3 = cast stage. Follow the order, not instant key presses.

Recast practice: Distortion

  1. DistortionW
  2. AA
  3. Sigil of MaliceQ
  4. DistortionW

With LeBlanc, start with Distortion, then continue through Basic attack → Sigil of Malice → Distortion. Treat the repeated Distortion as separate activations. Practise its first effect and the moment for the follow-up independently.

Mistake to avoid : Repeated keys do not mean instant presses; confirm the recast is available and its target is still valid.

Repeated spells may need a recast window or a cooldown; check that the next activation is actually available.

Game plan by role

LeBlanc · Mid
Early game

Use the wave to control when trades happen. Keep a defensive option if the opposing jungler is missing, and avoid forcing a combo into a large enemy wave.

Mid game

Move after checking the wave, vision and who can follow. A useful roam should not cost several uncontested waves for no clear opportunity.

Teamfights

Fight from a position where you can repeat your useful spells. Look for an opening after enemy control is spent instead of entering first by habit.

Before your next fight, check: Sigil of Malice · Mimic · Combos

LeBlanc · Support
Early game

Stand where you can help your lane partner without exposing both of you. Coordinate the opening before spending your main control or protection.

Mid game

Set up vision with nearby allies rather than walking into unlit areas alone. Roam when your lane partner can safely handle the next wave.

Teamfights

Choose between creating an opening and protecting the teammate who can carry the fight. Do not spend every defensive spell on the first visible enemy.

Before your next fight, check: Sigil of Malice · Mimic · Combos

06

Matchup preparation

Compare opponents in the build for the role you are actually playing. Then check their key control, escape and defensive spells before choosing your trade.

07

Practice checklist

  1. Cast each ability alone and identify its range, target conditions and stopping point.
  2. Practise the first sequence slowly. Repeat it while moving, without skipping the conditions shown on its card.
  3. After each attempt, identify the spell you would still have available to defend or retreat.
