Basically the whole comparison of champions thing is making me laugh.

There's nothing like Leblanc.

She is the definition of hard snowball or useless feeder. There is rarely a scenario where Leblanc is decent and contributes much without being hard fed.

If she gets lots of kills though..? Nothing snowballs as hard. Your carry dies instantly every fight. Your support dies instantly 7 seconds later. It's disgusting.

No other champion in the game can 100 to 0 a champ as fast as Leblanc outside of Viegar. But, even Viegar's not quite as good at it, and he's not mobile.

Viegar is a team fighter, Leblanc is a burst assassin.

She is actually quite OP 1v1, especially when she is in mid. She is useless in late game and in team fights. She mostly dominates 1v1. Her abilities are only viable for attacking 1 enemy champion.

@DuffTime:

No.

Akali is the definition of a hard snowballer.
LeBlanc can't snowball. She can only get really fed.

The definition of a snowballing champion is when their success allows them to continue being successful, basically giving them the chance to completely annihilate a team if ignored in a fight.
AKA: Their cooldown refreshes on kills.

i.e.: Master Yi's Highlander, Tristana's Rocket Jump, Akali's Shadow Dance, Irelia's Bladesurge.



LeBlanc is more like an Veigar. A Hard Single-target Nuke. (only lacking a late game, and having assassin-y traits)
Veigar isn't really a team fighter, Event Horizon doesn't define him. He's a mage-assassin, his job is to find the enemy AP Caster, and focus them into oblivion. That's what Primordial Burst is for.

The only real PURE snowball in the game imo is Yi and Eve.

Eve isn't a snowball either.
She was just OP with stealth.

Akali is a pure snowball assassin. If you do not get fed and ahead of the enemy, you can't get kills and won't be able to snowball, and will just end up doing badly.

Did I manage to assist you in any way? Hook me up by hitting that nifty +Rep button.

All guides have been archived due to my not being able to play LoL currently. The information is still there and is good but until I return they will be archived. I am able to keep them updated and current though.

Le blanc is just a good mid player and ill think if you use le blanc to kill the carriers she will be usefull in teamfights. Carriers aren't tanky normally so if le blanc dash in on carrier the carrier will be death or very low health. If the carrier is death easy win. :)

Not at all Jun. Akali gets better when she gets fed and is unstoppable early/mid game when she has items, but she falls off super hard in late game compared to carries. Same argument with LB.

Yi dominates the entire game when fed (like tryn, but tryn doesn't snowball, he just gets fed).
Eve can dominate as well. Not sure about after her remake whether she will but atm her burst can still two hit a carry (DFG + a Deathcap + Lichbane means you can just DFG into ravage, lichbane proc and then hatespike proc ensures a kill pretty much). It's just that full invisibility made it easier for her to get fed and dominate all game. If she doesn't get fed though and doesn't get her items she'll just completely fall off. Unlike Akali, who can still potentially 1 v 1 a carry, eve can't.
