Quoted:
I can see you always emphasizing that it's the matter of your personal playstyle but you have to consider the actual qualities a guide has to offer. There are for instance according to calculations items which outclass other items, champions which are concerning the current meta seeing play due to their strenghts and so on.
You should recommend the best possible setup to people which can be, ofc, your personal one but just in a few cases. You shouldn't teach people to play in your way in the first place because especially newer players will fall for it. People will receive negative feedback from their mates and will arguably experience that the playstyle you suggest isn't working (and everbody else is using a different one for a reason).
However, you can mention your personal preference but in this specific case I wouldn't provide it in the cheat sheet!


How do you think meta's and new play styles are formed? If everyone did the same thing and refused to rock the boat we'd still be playing with a 5 brawler team. Again, if someone just looks at the cheat sheet and sees ignite/exhaust, that is what I want. I want them to be like "What? what is this?" and read on (which they are more likely to do). This is not a guide like all the other guides, this is a different style of guide. There already are 50 guides that do the normal Leona, why would I need to add one more? No reason at all, it would be a waste of time.

I have something to bring to the table, so I brought it. Either take it or leave it.

Ignite may not be for everyone, but I also talked about that in my guide under the "Why Ignite and Flash" section.

It is my guide and this is how I play Leona. If you disagree with something in the guide, you are free to not follow it or write your own guide.

Thank you for your input especially on the build path

Flash is a necessary summoner spell. There are so many options of using it alongside with abilities like Flash + Zenith Blade/ Shield of Daybreak/ Solar Flare.

In a premade lane you might consider it being useful but in lane you won't likely dominat for instance you want to be able to use Flash defensively.

Ignite is a decent option in but it falls of with the course of the game. For tactical reasons you can pick Ignite over Exhaust in lane in maybe 20 per cent of the games but the overall advantages of Flash as a summoner spell are huge and I guess 98 per cent of the supports run it (considering players above the average ELO ofc). Therefore you can mention your way of playing Leona but you shouldn't recommend it in the first place !

In the cheat sheet don't just show an example build. Offer a glimpse on the exact build path especially in the early game!
