Can't speak much on the rest of the guide, but I do agree with choosing [W] at level one. Many Leona guides I see open with the stun, but that makes farming (with or without last hitting, if your tank AD or Support Tank) really hard, and it protects you from early harassment, and could even save your life if the enemy's lane chose to initiate early for first blood.

Support Leona OP, but take Flash and CV...

Um to be honest there's way too many misconceptions in this guide.

First of all, the OPTIMAL way to build Leona would to be tanky AD. Her W gives SO many resistances so that it allows a Leona to be tanky if farmed. The reason why people CAN'T do that is because she can't get farm in the meta.

Second of all, if you're playing a support, there is absolutely no reason to get Teleport OR Ghost. You can't sustain your AD carry with Leona. Heal, Exhaust, CV, Flash are all viable on supports more then Tele and Ghost are.

Third, you're playing a support yet you add 0 points into utility? The 21 in utility was essentially made for supports. There's no reason for you to go into offense at all. 0/22/8 is already extreme for a support. 0/9/21 is standard. You will provide way less as a support with no utility.

Fourth, your runes are really weird. What you want to do as a support is to let your ad carry farm and secure dragon. Your runes don't bring any to that. You have per level seals and glyphs, CDR marks, and flat health quints. CDR marks won't even help early game because of your mastery tree and starting items, and it doesn't even scale well. CDR is such an easy stat to obtain for a support; you can easily cap it with two or three items. Flat health quints provide less than armor or MR quints, and even so you should be getting avarice quints for the gold you need, as you won't be farming as the support.

Fifth, your items are slightly weird. You start with a regen and one pot, providing no vision at all early game, no mana sustain which is even worse since you don't spec into the utility tree. You're getting Shurelya's way too late, and Soul Shroud isn't even necessary since Leona doesn't promote poke fights; she promotes direct teamfights and engagements. Also, for your final situational items, I really don't know what you're saying. You say go "support Leona" yet you advise people to buy a Madreds, Malady, and even a Youmuu's which is a horrible item to buy late game.

You should also clarify on your item choices, runes, and masteries; it's way too vague to understand what you're trying to do.

Decent setup, but a bit armor-heavy vs. MR. I'd rather have Abyssal Mask than Malady for AP support for lots of reasons. Still, this build should work fine, but I'd add more situational item stuff.

+1 :) several pointers

Too many walls of text. honestly, I skipped a few. Sorry, I know you put effort into it, my boredom Is more important then you. Ok I was just joking haha but that is the view of many people.

The title is confusing. in todays meta, support = 0 cs. change it to offtank Leona or something like that.

Seals: flat armor is better. trust me. xD you have enough armor late game, if people target you they will lose the team fight anyways.

masteries: take out those 9 points in moffense. They are useless. yay. 4ap. sure, 4% cdr is ok, but why not get masteries lik 30 hp, or 3% move speed? even 8 points in utility would be better . ( keep upgraded ghost xD )

if I helped, + rep?

Tried to play her - and failed. After reading your guide I will give her another shot, since I like to play support. +1 for fresh ideas :)

I like the guide.
The items you use and present are easy to afford but they are very effective for Leona's kit.

Although I wouldn't reccomend Greater Mark of Precision because it will hardly make any noticable diffrence in your damage output.

Also you should add some more alternatives for magic resist, becides Spirit Visage is not a very good choice for Leona, unless you have Soraka in your team.

Anyway thats my feedback/suggestions.

+1 from me :) Gl & Hf.

I'm a little confused why you level Zenith Blade over Shield of Daybreak. Why don't you level them together, so you can use them at the same time more often? Like getting Zenith to level 3, and then alternating between the two.

Loved the guide though.
