Leona on Livestream

[quote=Xenasis]Nevertheless, her ultimate, unlike Amumus, has a range. She can initiate when others can't, even if she simply uses it to cause people to run out of it, that's a choice for the enemy of being stunned, or running away - at which point, they're open to damage. I don't think that like Amumu, she can jump into any team and initiate, but she's unique. If she was Amumu, what's the point in her being a new tank? I think Leona needs a specific team comp, for example, an Ashe or Orianna (wow, Orianna and Leona chain ulting :O)[/quote]

From what I saw it just seemed a little lacklustre - but then again, I only saw it clearly one or two times, because the first two times Phreak ulted I was typing in this thread, and then the stream was down for most of the rest of the game.

[quote=Zeprido]Leona Sounds like Amumu, but better at the actual tanking role, if she can jungle I think we have a winner.[/quote]

[quote=Bloofyre]correct me if im wrong, but from what OP has said, it would seem that she is a disabler and not a tank...[/quote]

[quote=Trojan995]I can't tell if Leona is really lackluster or looks borderline OP. On one hand, her ult might be ashe-esque power and devastating long-range initiate. On the other hand, she might just be someone who dashes in, disables one person, and kind of just jumps around aloof - basically a CC bot. Her dash looks really pathetic though, nothing more than an amumu bandage toss (which has high risk as-is, for much greater reward). Her stun looks like it has to be REALLY close range, which might be a deal breaker and forces her to land her grab to really get anything done. However, unlike Amumu, her initiate is not botched if she misses the blink, as she can throw down her ult and still be useful. Her shield - I don't even know, it might be a nuisance, or it might not. We'll just have to see.[/quote]

[quote=Bloofyre]Yeah... I'm thinking a bit underpowered from the sound of it... the blink ignoring minions is a bit cool though[/quote]
