History of Leona

On the upper slopes of Mount Targon, the warriors of Rakkor live and breathe only for war. However, Targon's peak is reserved for a special group of Rakkoran who answer to a ''higher'' calling. Members of this group, called the Solari, retire their mantles of war, choosing instead to devote their lives to reverence of the sun. According to legend, the Solari were formed by a warrior who could call the raw might of the sun down upon his enemies in combat. He claimed Mount Targon's summit, the point on Valoran closest to the sun, for his solar devotion, a tradition which generations of Solari have preserved to this day. Though they maintain their reverence, no other warrior possessed the gifts of the founder -- until Leona.

Leona's parents were traditional Rakkorans, both bred for the heat of battle. To them, Leona was a problem child. She was capable of fighting as fiercely as any other -- including her childhood friend, Pantheon -- but she did not share their zeal for killing. She believed that the true worth of a soldier lay in her ability to defend and protect. When it came time for her Rite of Kor, a ceremony in which two Rakkoran teens battle to the death for the right to bear a relic-weapon, Leona refused to fight. For this, the Rakkoran leaders ordered her execution, but when they tried to strike the fatal blow, sunlight burst forth, bathing Mount Targon in light. As it faded, Leona stood unharmed and her executioners lay unconscious around her. The Solari immediately claimed Leona, demanding that her sentence be repealed. She donned the golden armor of the Solari and they bestowed upon her the sword and shield passed down from the ancient sun-warrior of legend. The Solari helped Leona focus her abilities, and when she was ready she left to join the League of Legends.

-Leona

Greater Mark of Armor - Bonus armor is very good option for a tank
Greater Seal of Armor - Just like the marks,they give you some extra armor
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist - Bonus magic resistance is a nice option too.
Greater Quintessence of Armor - In my oppinion, Greater Quintessence of Health are useless,because 2050 ip is a waste for 26 health,so I choose 4.26 it is better and cheaper
Greater Quintessence of Magic Resist - Bonus magic resistance is better than 26 health and I get one Greater Quintessence of Armor and two Greater Quintessence of Magic Resist, in that case you have balanced armor and magic resistance. So this is my oppinion for the runes, if you have any suggestions pm me. I'm gonna correct it if I see a better option

The Best masteries for leona are 9/21/0. She is tank so she need 21 defense.Her spells deals magic damage so Archmage's Savvy is good option + Archaic Knowledge Leona deals some nice magic damage.

First of all you need some nice boots -
One real tank need health,armor and magic resistance so is a perfect item
The best health item in LoL is , so if you want to master one tank you will deffinetly need this.
is one of the best tank items. You will ask why? Coz it gives armor, health, health regeneration and cooldown reduction and the active ability gives slows which can turn the fight into your advantage.
is the item which has the best health regen and magic resistance in the LoL so its a super item for Leona
Hmmm Armor Magic Resistance and the super ability to revive yourself when you are dead.I think those are the best items for one tank such as Leona.

-Leona uses her shield to perform her next autoattack,dealing bonus magic damage and stunning the target.Pretty nice skill <3
- Leona raises her shield to gain Armor and Magic Resistance. When the duration first ends,if there are nearby enemies she will deal magic damage to them and prolong the duration of the effect.Very efective skill for a tank <3
-Leona projects a solar image of her sword, dealing magic damage to all enemies in a line. When the image fades, the last enemy champion struck will be briefly immobillized and Leona will dash to them.If the enemy escape at low hp you can catch them with this <3
-Leona calls down a beam of solar energy, dealing damage to enemies in an area. Enemies in the center of the are are stunned, while enemies on the outside are slowerd.Pretty nice mass ultimate which can bring the low hp champions into immediate death.

- Pretty nice ability for escaping and to catching
- Again very good option for every single champion including Leona
