Have u ever consider to build frozen heart? the best aura, second most armor, mana and Cdr. all stats are deeply loved by leona. A early glacial shroud helps out with jungling alot. Although you need to consider if your jungling can survive with out the Aura from sunfire cape.

Also Bots of mobility is the best jungling boots in my opinion. When i jungle i never keep still, always running across the whole map to gank, hold and counter gank. I recommend building(excluding starting item): boots> Philo/HoG(HoG gives early durability to survive ur own ganks)>boots of mobility>Hog/philo(which ever u didn't build first)>glacial shroud. Then after that you build what is most needed. Glacial shroud/frozen heart can be built after sunfire cape.

Also iron locket of solari isn't a so good item. The health regen is still not enough to be better then other armor items, espeically frozen heart or randuins omen, which also is built from HoG. The active shield if very weak and scale with lvl, and at lvl 18 it shield less then a AD carries Auto attack. I would only get it on a support with no healing or shield when against a poke lane.

I was skeptical about jungle Leona.
It was slow at first but her unique kit allowed for many successful ganks.
Nice guide.

Yes, they are viable but they need to be in synergy with your build and the goal of your build.

In my build, one of the first items is Kindlegem that gives you already 10% cooldown reduction, after upgraded into Shurelya's Battlesong, with 15% cooldown reduction.
I think 10% (and then 15%) is enough for early game, and buying Ionian Boots of Lucidity when you can buy better boots, like Mobility Boots, it's not a good deal.

Lately I use them, Mobility Boots, and wow, they are great...the speed is insane, and they are cheep, really cheap.

If you think that 15% cooldown is too low, think to put points into Enlightenment , but remember that at lvl 18, if you have Shurelya's Battlesong, Enlightenment , and Elixir of Brilliance you are near the cap of cooldown reduction.

Anyway for late game I prefer to get Mercury's Treads just because one of my goal is make Leona really tanky and annoying.

So i think that Ionian Boots of Lucidity are redundant with Shurelya's Battlesong in a generic jungler support buid when you want a tough and fast jungler, but they are good on full support champions build.


Ionians are not redundant at all unless you go over the cap. Reverie + Ionians + Enlightenment = 15 + 15 + 8... If you take 9/21/0 masteries, you'll only go over by 2% at level 18. CDR actually gets stronger the closer you get to the cap. Imagine going from 90% CDR to 95% CDR, if it were allowed... that would be twice as many stuns.

CDR is a very strong stat. It means you are almost always in a fight with W, and it means you have a stun ready after 4.2 seconds. At 26% CDR, that's 5.18 seconds; one second can be a lot. Eclipse goes from 2.14 of downtime at 26% (if it hits) to .6 seconds of downtime at 40% (if it hits). That's over 1.5 extra seconds for them to burst you down, or for them to wreck your team because you can't go back in yet. An extra 8.4 seconds on Solar Flare can also be the difference between helping in time and not.

I really love to jungle with Leona. My build is similar, but i prefer Frozen Heart than Randuin's Omen i this Frozen Heart give her really nice buffs and nice aura. And for ones who like early Philosofer's stone like me i sometimes start with Regrowth Pendant and one potion. Really nice guide +1

Did it and went great.I, sometimes change sunfire for aegis and abyssal or trinity for randuins tho, if my team is getting wrecked by aoe and their ad carry is too fed that even with locket we can't surive enough time to get them. (sometimes your team sucks)

That said, I would like to put that her clear times aren't that great but her ganks def. make up for it.
Also, with her cc, aura and active itens, you can change the way teamfights go. She's in pair with naut on my opinion, if played correctly.

Sorry for lack of skills in english. Oh, kudos to the guide. :)

Have you considered Ionian Boots of Lucidity? I can't stand to not max CDR on Leona. Mercury's Treads are a fine choice and better players than me swear by them on Leona, but better players than me also swear by Ionians.
