NOT UPDATED FOR Season 12

EVERYTHING ABOVE HAS BEEN UPDATED FOR SEASON 12

EVERYTHING BELOW THIS POINT HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED FOR SEASON 12

I am updating one guide a week for the next 10 weeks. If this message is not at the top of the guide then it has been updated

Welcome! If you do not know me I am Doglightning a support main. I've managed to maintain GrandMaster for 2 years straight now but I love to play other off meta supports on my low Diamond account. Recently I have picked up support and fell in love immediately. She reminds me a lot of support and I hope this guide helps you all fall in love with her as well!

Why LeBlanc support?
It sounds cliché but the best form of cc in the game is death and excels at this. Once you get your combo's down you can one shot and adc or mid laner making the fight a 4v5 and instantly won. Out side of her burst she has great roaming and should be paired with an adc like who can farm 1v2 and allow you to roam. Finally a really underrated part of support is vision control and is one of the best at placing vision and abusing it. with her w you can get safe deep wards and use those wards to find picks.

Please check out my twitch it really helps support me in making Neeko content like this:

PROS

+ Great base damage
+ Amazing vision control
+ excellent roaming
+ Lane bully
+ Doesn't fall off

The best 2 things about that makes her supportable is her ability to get deep vision safely with her and the fact that she can always one shot an enemy adc at any point in the game. also is a great roamer as a into is a free or kill and you can murder the enemy jungle if you run into them with yours.

CONS

- Low range
- Squishy
- Hard to play from behind
- High skill floor
- Doesn't offer anything to your adc
- gets poked out
- hard lane phase

has so really amazing strengths but its balanced by very big weaknesses.
Fot starters she is very squishy so you have to pick correct times to go in or you will die. This also leads to her being very bad if you get poked at all because you cannot go in if you even lose 300hp as you will get one shot. Finally she can't really help protect your adc and has a harder time in lane phase.

SUMMONER SPELLS
-

FLASH: is just mandatory rune on almost every champ. It allows you to play more aggro and lane your

IGNITE: Ignite is a direct counter to which almost every adc takes so be sure to use it before the enemy s for some early kills. In teamfights put it on whoever is getting the most healing.

EXHAUST: I don't really run this but if enemy has tons of assassins or something like a or in lane then its probably ok

DOMINATION

is a great rune on level one you can auto auto to proc and get a good trade in. It also plays to s assassin like play style wanting to just one shot someone in a combo. once you hit lvl 2 its impossible to not pop even if miss because you cannot really miss auto attack and .

Most plays you are going to engage using your w . Since this spell is a dash you get proc'd so you get spell pen to make your full combo do more damage to help you one shot the poor adcs >:D

I run because the late game vision control it gives is insane but I think it's only better in diamond+ elo as it requires the enemy to actually ward which lower elo supports don't really do that well.

is better in low elos because for one the enemy is less likely to sweep wards making it easier to stack compared to higher elo where they enemy is constantly sweeping wards before you can convert them into powos.

may have less utility compared to the other two but you usually can stack it faster to get access to the 30 ap faster and help snowball faster.

is just great for keeping presence on the map also very good for games you think you will not be building .

is really good on because you kinda wanna use on cooldown to poke and look for one shots. This rune just plays to that helps you late game get possibly 2 s in a fight.

is great as it eliminates your need for mana items and allows you to pick up a which gets you some extra health.

is another mana option but might not be enough to enabled a . I would consider a with this option.

is free cdr which is never bad. At level 11 you get 20% cdr after you kill someone which means you can go in for a kill then have kinda like a reset because your spells are such a low cd.

doesn't really help outside of very early lane. If you want to fight a lot early in lane this just makes you a bit tankier so enemy cannot focus on you

double because we out here tryna kill the enemy. da heck you doing if not taking this hehexd

PASSIVE
ABILITY

Mirror Image (Passive): summons a clone when you fall below 40% that you can control with alt + click. Only use of this for the most part is mind games where you fool the enemy into thinking its you or to block skill shots.

Sigil of Malice (Q): is a point and use spell that does dmg and if you hit the enemy with a second spell you pop an 2nd extra amount of damage. usual make you you have another spell ready after you cast

Distortion (W): This is the bread and butter spell of support. Basically dashes forwards doing AoE splash damage to everyone hit. If is activated again within 4 sec you go back to your starting point.
Use this to get in range to hit your Q and E and use it to get deep wards in enemy jungle.

Ethereal Chains (E): launches a chain out that attaches to the enemy and after a short delay if they don't get out of range from you with then proc a 2nd time to root them. Usually you hit first them use while waiting for the root to proc on which will activate the 2nd damage part of .

Mimic (R): This is s combo spell. How mimic works is it will recast your last casted spell again. So if you last casted a then will be a . Use with for burst, with for more gap close or AoE damage and with for a longer cc chain when peeling.

vs range supports

vs Range supports I take level 1 as you can use your auto auto to
proc level one and get a decent trade in with the enemy. Other then that its
pretty standard. I put 2 early points in for a good lvl 4 spike while maxing
first because getting that on a low cooldown really unlocks s kit.

vs melee supports

vs Melee supports its the exact same as vs range except level 1 I take .
Usually will put you in range of a melee supports crowd control level 1 and I
found it better to just chain them from range and hit two autos for a proc.

Combos

Burst Combo: >>>
^for this combo make sure you get & off before 2nd proc

CC Combo: >>>

Gap close/Aoe Combo: >>>

Early Core

You are a mage assasins so obv we want this over Relic Shield

This item perfectly fits LeBlancs playstyle. It's 123% gold efficient with no stacks and if you start to snowball this item will be huge.

Again we are a burst assassin mage and we want items to help us do max damage which is why we get pen boots!

Mythics

The reason Night Harvester is better then Luden's Tempest on LeBlanc support is because we don't need mana in this role as we get all the mana we need from Spellthief's Edge and Manaflow Band. Also since support is under leveled the extra HP is super useful to makeup for the base hp loss.

If you are not going Manaflow Band and Biscuit Delivery instead then you might want Everfrost to still get hp but also increase your mana pool as well.

Core Items

Great snowball item for LeBlanc. If you are winning and have 8+ stacks upgrade to this item. If not just sell it later for a different situational item instead!

Super good because LeBlanc is super cooldown reliant and has low hp. This item provides both. You get your Distortion down to 5 seconds and will be very hard to get caught out. Usually sub this out for other situational items if you need them.

now a great item. You should get this last or when you hit 13 as it has great stats now. Not much more to say.

Situational Items

If the enemy has bursty champs that will kill you when you go in the Zhonya's Hourglass is a great tool to let you go in and stall time until Distortion comes off cooldown again.

If enemy has a ap heavy team or poke champs then this is your go to item!

If the squishies you are trying to kill are stacking mr like a merc treads and something else then this is a great option to let you still one shot >:D

If enemy has healers then this is a must as you cannot burst a target who is being healed. Even sitting on Oblivion Orb is fine.

If you lose all your stacks on Mejai's Soulstealer then Rabadon's Deathcap can be a good option to replace it getting a huge boost of ap for them spicy one shots.

In general you do not want to trade in lane as support as if you lose too much health you will not be able to all in. Most of the time you are just casually waiting for the enemy to make a mistake so you can go all in. That being said I do usually trade at level one as I have pots to heal up and you can usually get a favorable trade here. I simply auto auto vs ranged or auto auto vs melee to get a early lead. Once you hit level 2 unless you have a very strong adc you don't want to go in again till you are at least level 3 as this is when you unlock and can really threaten a all in. Usually wait till the enemy support blows a major cooldown then on the enemy adc and use your into combo for easy kills.

The real strength of though is her roaming so pairing with adcs who can solo farm while you terrorize the map is best I found. Stick with your jungler and any 2v2 scenario you get into will be won as you have crazy burst and your mobility will make it impossible for the enemies to escape. Ganks mid also are very strong. A into is a free or kill depending on the mids cooldowns. Finally using you can safely get deep into the enemy jungle to scout and place vision which can win early game alone for your team!

Once the mid/late game comes not much really changes on this champ. You are still just wanted to follow your jungle looking for skirmishes. Get good vision around objectives using and sit and wait. This is actually one reason I think fits so well as a support is her vision setup. loves sitting in bushes and waiting for an enemy to face check her but usually she doesn't get to have the vision around her that she always wants unless the support places it for her. As support you can setup perfect vision around your bush camp so you have 100% info on whos where so you don't get caught out in a 2v1 scenario.

In team fights you have two playstyles. The assassin playstyle which is usually preferred of the cc chain peel playstyle. If your job is to assassin the back like then use to sneak behind the enemy and as the fight starts look to one shot their backline carries. If you pull this off then the fight is instantly won. Sometimes your job will be to peel with a double chain combo for a 3 sec root on a primary target. This isn't preferred but if your team is low on peel sometimes this is your job. For instance one game the enemy team had a master yi and I was the only cc so every fight I was just 3 sec double chain rooting him on cd.
