ague of Legends Champion Guide: Leona (The Radiant Dawn)

E: Soul Unbound – Yone can enter his Spirit Form, gaining movement speed and leaving his body behind. When Yone’s Spirit Form expires he’ll snap back into his body and deal a percentage of all the damage he dealt while in Spirit F

As discussed earlier, Leona is best played as an aggressive support that takes advantage of enemies that are alone or have stepped up too close to the minion wave. As a support, she is best played bottom lane with a preferably ranged ADC that is willing to combo with Leona when she dives aggressively. In lane, you’re going to want to harass the enemy ADC with Zenith Blade whenever they are alone or trying to last hit a minion . If you don’t have wards and an enemy is missing, hide in the brush beside the river to provide vision for your ADC and then punish any enemy junglers that are come to tank. Leona has a ton of wave clear with Eclipse and Zenith Blade, so it is okay to be aggressive and push lane to the enemy tower. This kind of play will also synergize well with Demolish as you can do a lot of damage to the enemy towers early on. Clearing and pushing the wave also provides Leona with the opportunity to leave the lane and help out middle or top. Thanks to her Boots of Mobility, she can rotate to other lanes and easily engage the enemy from the brush. In the middle to late-game, Leona will excel at tanking damage and providing crowd control. Use her abilities to get right into the middle of the fight and draw attention away from your team. Then, use her Shield of Daybreak or Solar Flare to deal damage while immobilizing the enemy ADC. If Leona is in the absolute thick of it, use Eclipse and Gargoyle Stoneplate to tank the enemy team’s damage output and let your team clean them

This is where Yone and Yasuo’s kits begin to diverge, as Yone’s W is very straight forward. This ability is a large cone in front of Yone (a Yone Cone) that deals damage based on an enemy’s maximum health. Yone then gains a shield based on how many champions he hit with the initial strike. Spirit Cleave is a defensive ability that requires Yone to be actively engaged in combat, so it lends itself to a very all-in playstyle if players want to get the most defensive value out of the abil

Leona is best played as a tank support, which means it can be difficult to accumulate gold in the game since your ADC should have priority over minion kills. Therefore, it’s best to focus on getting a few essential items that give movement speed, extra HP, and resistan

_League of Legends _ is receiving its second moody samurai with the release of the game’s newest champion, Yone (yo-nay). Brother to Yasuo, the premier swordsman of Summoner’s Rift, Yone brings an alternative, though not dissimilar playstyle to players looking to spend their time mastering the bl

Sett, another popular champion for the pros, can go anywhere from top lane to mid lane to the jungle. His versatility gets him banned in between 11% and 49% of games depending on tier. He’s also one of the newer champions on this l

Leona’s Zenith Blade is her third active ability and it allows Leona to project a solar image of her sword in a straight line with a limited range. If an enemy is hit by the sword’s projection, magic damage is dealt to them and Leona dashes to the enemy hit last. When Leona dashes to an enemy hit by Zenith Blade, they are rooted for 0.5 seconds. In the early game, this ability is best used to punish enemy Champions that are alone in lane or may be coming a little too close to the minion wave, but later on in the MOBA Game builds it will be your tool of choice for initiating fights and landing Shield of Daybreak. Following this ability up with her Shield of Daybreak allows her to immobilize an enemy champion for a whole 1.5 seconds, more than enough time for a teammate to land his or her’s next crowd control abil

As usual, there is quite a bit to read in the 7.26a patch notes, and readers can click here for the full announcement. Best of luck to everyone and keep an eye out for players who may be overextending themselves with these new changes, as they likely have not read the notes and are ripe for a quick kill until they figure it

For noobs and pros alike, there are just some champions that will forever get banned in competitive play (and even in normals). Here’s 15 League of Legends champions that, according to statistics site op.gg, are the hottest on the ban list this y

During the Early-Mid game you will want to grab your first essential item which will be the Gargoyle Stoneplate. This item will provide much needed passive resistances as well as its active will allow you to increase your max HP by 100% for 4 seconds which can be vital when in the middle of a fight. However, at this point Leona’s max HP is kind of low so it would be smart to turn the early game Kindlegem into a Knight’s Vow which synergizes really well with a support play-style. Knight’s Vow will allow you to designate an ally champion as your partner and grant you bonuses if you are within range of t
