Introduction

Hello my ingame name is: iZ L e e S i n and i am a Lee Sin OTP since Season 6.
I play League of Legends since early Season 5 and my highest Elo peak was Platin 5.
My current rank is Gold 4.

My english isnt this good but i hope its good enough for you to understand me.

I have right now on all accounts together about 600k points on Lee Sin.

I play on EUW and i stream sometimes. Click this for my see my Stream
--> streamlink and this for ---> OP.GG


Well lets get started!

Runes

Why do i put 3x Attackspeed Quins over 3x AD Quins?
Well i prefer the Attackspeed over the Bonus DMG because i like the combination from the extra attackspeed together with the Passive attackspeed after evrey spell. Its a preference thing. I think its a bit faster clear when you have the attackspeed Quins than AD Quins.
But you will have less AD in 1vs1 its kind of a trade for me Jungle clear speed > 1vs1 DMG.

Masteries

Well now my Masteryies. Its pretty standart 12|18|0. I choose Thunderlords in evrey matchup. Its a must have for Lee Sin. To be honest there is not much to tell you about Masteries they are pretty standart nothing special there. You want to go for full DMG since you are a good 1vs1 fighter.

You can choose between Fury or Sorcery. If you play with my runes you wont need to take Fury in your masteries because you have enough attackspeed and need the bonus DMG on your spells.
Back to Top

Why do I choose these items?

I dont have in evrey game the same item path but i have pretty common builds for Heavy AP or Heavy AD comps.

VS AP:

If you play vs a heavy AP comp you want to rush Maw of Malmortius or Edge of night after your Warrior (Choose MAW over Edge of Night when the enemys have hughe burst dmg.
You want to get tanky stats after this and one of the best AP resistance item is Spirit Visage (SV) or vs long range CC a Banshees grab one of these.
Since the enemys still have an ADC left you need a standart amount of Armor. You should be fine with a Deadmans plate or Randuins. (Choose Randuins over Deadmans if the enemy ADC builds crit).
And last but not least grab yourself a Guardians Angel because it gives you Ar and MR. (And you are Lee Sin, you wanna jump into enemys and wanna survive.)


VS AD:

If the enemys have a Hughe AD comp you should rush Deadmans plate after Warriors. If the enemy ADC is hard feed or infront of you grab a Randuins. If you are even with the enemy Team buy a Titanic Hydra and Ninja Tabis. You can grab a Sunfire cape as well or an Guardians Angel.
If the enemys have 1 AP carry grab an Edge of Night (Gives you AD and MR).


VS Balanced team:

Try to find a good balance between these items. There is no itembuild which is good in evrey situation. You need to change your item build like evrey game.

Skill Sequence

There is not much to say to this, its a standart skill sequence. Max Q for the Dmg, then W for Sustain+ extra shield and then E and whenever possible your R.
Back to Top

Summoner Spells

You always chooseand there is no need to change these summoner spells. You want to take flash for you flash kicks or for escapeing enemys and you always take smite as jungler!
Back to Top

Jungle pathing

A good Lee Sin always invaeds his Opponent.
You want to start topside on both sides (Red and Blue).

Blue side:

Start at Blue buff (Dont smite it), if the enemy Jungler started botside steal his red and follow up with your wolves. If the enemy jungler started topside go for your Blue and then for wolves. Dont forgett to use use your Passive efficiency and sustain up with your W.
After wolves you can choose to do raptors, you drop low if you dont smite them, or to do redbuff. If you play a lot lee sin and know to use your passive good enough you should do Raptors and then red. After thsi get the botside scuttle crab and try to gank midlane or botlane. If there is no gank opportunity go for a deepward into the enemy jungle and go for your Golems. Recall after and try to get your parts from Warrior.


Red site:

Start at Redbuff. If the enemy jungler started botside grab his bluebuff after your redbuff. Dont smite your redbuff! If the enemy jungler started topside go for Redbuff and then for Wolves and Bluebuff. After this you can take gromp and Scuttle crab and try to gank mid or bot. If there is no opportunity try to place a deepward into the eneym jungle and clear a camp which is alife but care, the enemy jungler could hang around.


Summarised: Blueside (no invade): Bluebuff --> Wolves --> Raptors/Redbuff ---> Redbuff/Raptors --> Scuttle Crab --> Gank/Counterjungle

Redside (no invade): Redbuff --> wolves --> Bluebuff --> Gromp --> Scuttle --> Gank/Invade

How to gank pre 6?

Many Lee player have a problem with ganking pre 6.
If you want to gank pre 6 you need to make sure the enemy laner is pushes into half of the lane or more. You can wardjump onto the lane and land your E, press your E again because it gives the enemy a slow and then you start aa th enemy, if you have redbuff you will slow the target even more.
If there are no minions in your Q path you can throw a Q now and reactivate it. Most of the enemy try to flash your Q so you shoudl wait as long as possible with throwing your Q and keep aa the enemy, he has to flahs anyways.

Combos

There are many Combos for Lee Sin. I ll add a video from Heizman which i think showes these combos good enough.

The first thing you need to handle is his Ward jump mechanic. You place a ward and cast your W on it. This "combo" is a tool to get near to an enemy or escape. Its also needed to do the "INSEC".

Next Combo: Q (AA) R Q AA E / R (AA) Q Q AA E --> If you want to do good dmg in short ammount on an enemy these are you going to combos. If have the surprise moment Q the enemy AA him ult him away and follow your Q and deal further dmg with your E and AA´s.

Q- Smite: If you want to suprise an enemy who thinks he is safe behind his minions, you wanna use this combo. Its very stylish but care you only can one hit smite ranged minions! If you want to do this chase the enemy who is hiding behind his minions and throw your Q and in the animation you smite the minion and your Q pass trough and hits the enemy. It looks pretty sick and is hard to land most of the times. Summarised combo: Q Smite Reactivate Q if it hit

Pure oneshot combo: Use this combo when the enemy has no vision on you are you are low and he chases you. You throw your Q and in the Q animation you flash in the direction of the enemy and ult him. Your Q should hti him right when you flash on him and ult him after you ulted him reactivate your Q and actibvate E and aa him, its the max burst combo and the most suprising combo you can do. Summarised combo: Q Flash R Q E AA

Flash Kick: This is a nice little combo to catch people offguard. You want to Q the enemy and cast your ult and flash in the animation of the Ult in any direction from the target to change the kick path. Its your main combo when you try to catch an enemy carry who thinks he is safe.

The INSEC: The INSEC is th emost known Lee Sin combo. You want to Q an enemy follow your Q ward jump behind the enemy and R him into your Team.
There are many Variations of the Insec. You can also Q the enemy wardjump to the enemy and R flash him and follow your Q to stay on the target.

Video to this combos ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoODOqgssf4 The interesting part of the video starts at 4:50 before its only masteries and runes for season 6.
