Lets now start with our OP Immortal/Max Tenacity Leona Build guide and how to win games easier than ever!

Let’s start with WHY we are choosing this build overall something else, especially while we also got the IMMORTAL Leona build version (even as support) that from now on will be our second choice for items and style!
Our Immortal build is a combination of Sustain and item effects that will give your team everything they need to be victorious no matter the situation. With this build Leona become a really strong from early to full late game Tank/Support Champion. You will be able to tank an insanely big amount of damage against any Champion and help your team with what they need MOST, someone to do the engages, tank all the damage, CC all the enemies and win every single team fight while staying always alive!


Check out what our Immortal Max Tenacity Leona Build can do here:

For me Leona is by far the STRONGEST support (and not only) champion, the reason is simple and most people can't understand that. Leona has everything you need, 3 type of CC(and slow if you miss the center of your ultimate), damage and INSANELY BIG SUSTAIN from both AD and AP type damage cause of your W and Aftershock also her passive Sunlight allow your teammates to do an extra amount of damage FOR FREE!

But why to choose to play with the Immortal build? Cause this build use everything Leona has and take it to the next level. Leona always is a champion that will do the "engage" that means you will go IN FIRST, with our build no only you won't die by receiving close to zero damage, but also damage all the enemy team non-stop cause of our items

Leona Cooldowns for her skills are pretty low, you can use your Shield of Daybreak W and Zenith Blade tons of times in each team fights, what you need to secure that? NOT TO BE STOPPED by anything and to sustain an INSANELY big damage while doing that.
So in full build you will have the following stats:
4500+ HP, 50+ Ability haste, 40%+ Tenacity and a really big amount of Armor and Magic resist, heals and also shields from Unending Despair and Winter's Approach. But it’s not just that, cause of our runes choices you will have an even bigger sustain cause of Triumph this will give you % of your missing health back after each kill/assist you take, this means you will go in, fight as long as you want, kill 1 or 2 and get back again for the rest 3 and if that is not enough, we will have most of the times Warmog's Armor passive effect to heal us back to full hp within few seconds out of combat!


This build will make your favorite Leona to be STRONGER than EVER and will secure your wins even in the hardest games that the SUPPORT will make the difference.

We got two different set of runes one for Support and One for Top/Mid/Jungle lanes, what we are focusing on is on getting enough sustain, tenacity, INSANE DAMAGE and other useful effects for being the STRONGEST from early till full late game!


Lets talk about the combinations and why they are worth:

For the Support build version

Resolve + Precision

Aftershock One of the most powerful runes for Immortal type Support champions, this rune will give you a big amount of armor and magic resist after doing CC to your enemy, for Leona it means with 3/4 of her skills! The reason we are choosing this over Grasp of the Undying is cause as support you need to GO IN INSTANT and you wont have time to be in combat for 4 seconds to fully use the effect right away! The same apply as JUNGLER as well, if you are Top or MID, you will choose to follow the second build rune version that we will describe below!

Font of Life Bonus Heal for you and your ally after you CC a target and you will multiply that by 5-15% cause of Revitalize making you an unstoppable monster!

Conditioning Another useful and sustain pick, this is a MUST pick for our build, cause it will give a big amount of permanent armor/magic resist after 12mins of the game!

Revitalize This rune is super powerful and finally will be an option for Leona as well, cause now you will multiply the Heal effects from Unending Despair, Triumph and Font of Life making these effects to increase by 5-15%!!

For Precision

Triumph This will give you back % missing health, %max Hp Health and bonus gold of each Assist/kill you will be doing in the game. Super useful cause you will need it after engaging 1v5 all the time!

Last Stand Bonus damage while you are below 60%, meaning you will increase the damage you are doing around you, the more you fight!

or

Legend: Haste Bonus ability haste to spam your Q-W-E skills more


For the Top/Mid or Jungle (As Jungler You can play with both versions but choose Aftershock instead)

Resolve + Domination


Grasp of the Undying While being in combat you will have the ability to do % of your max HP as dmg and also heal of your % of your HP plus 5 bonus health each time you activating it, that means that you will become stronger and stronger the more you fight!

Demolish You can also go for Font of Life but if you want a more Solo approach then go for this rune instead to do bonus damage to the towers and get them faster in order to move to other lanes and start destroying all!!

Second Wind gain health regeneration equal to 4% of your missing health over 10 seconds that together with Doran's Shield will make you have so much sustain from early till late game that you will be insanely powerful just cause of this combination of rune-item!

Revitalize Bonus 5-15% HEALS and SHIELDS, a must to have rune, that working incredible good with your Spirit Visage and Redemption that will help you survive against anything and if you got a support with a shield-heal like Janna Yuumi etc. will make you even STRONGER!!

For the secondary runes tree we got two different options!

Domination:

Cheap Shot Bonus True dmg after your CC, that means you will activate this rune non stop with Q-E-R making you use also true damage on your engages!
Or

Sudden Impact Bonus true damage after using your E, similar to cheap shot, both will be good to have!

Ultimate Hunter Bonus Ability haste for your Ultimate, our Solar Flare is one of our biggest weapons for our Immortal Leona, now we will use it FASTER and destroy them more EASIER while having a bigger impact in teamfights!!

And also Precision:

Triumph Missing HP Heal plus bonus gold for every kill/assist, you think the heal value is low for this rune, but in reality you will be gaining more than 500-600 HP per kill/assist, cause you will multiply this heal by Revitalize and Spirit Visage

Presence of Mind If you feel like having mana problems, then this rune is for you, giving you bonus mana after damaging your enemies!

If you want to understand how Heals, Shields and Regeneration works and why we are choosing these runes over anything else, we got our league masterclass that will help you:

So what these runes will give you, no matter if you choose the Solo Lane or Support versions? Insanely big sustain with combination of Armor/Magic resist bonuses, Tenacity that will make you walk your way to the team fights and useful runes effects that will make you unkillable!
Leona will always going to be one of the strongest champions in the game and with our Balorian’s style we made her EVEN MORE POWERFUL!

Now that you fully understood how to choose your runes, it's time to start understanding our Items!

Let’s start with the Items and our Items Strategy. I come up with this build after hundreds of different combinations, to create this final build that can’t lose vs ANYTHING and ANYONE!


This explanation will be for both Support and SOLO(Top/Mid or even Jungle) Roles, cause only the runes will be different (Check above) while item build will be the same only with small differences that you will for sure fully understand on your own as you continue reading!!

For Support Role:

As support, you will always start with World Atlas and Health Potion with the new changes, the start support item is far stronger. You can last hit creeps or gain gold while hitting champions/towers with ease! Especially as Leona that you will engage non stop!

At your first back you will focus to have 900-1050 Gold, and you will buy Bami's Cinder and a Refillable Potion that you will keep almost all game long, this will give you bonus HP and damage around you!

Then you will also focus on getting Bramble Vest The reason we are focusing on getting Bramble Vest as support, is to except have the bonus armor that will help us against the physical damage, to have a heal reduction effect to help our team denay a potential outplay from healing sources in teamfights!

The first Item that we will finish will be Sunfire Aegis this item will give you HP, ARMOR and a Burn Effect, as Leona you will fight non stop and always stick to the target to apply this burn effect! Also just like Bami's Cinder and of course your W, they will both help you farm and clear waves much easier!

Note now, another option is to go for Hollow Radiance, no matter if you are Bot or in a Solo Lane, now that more and more people picking full AP Champions, this item will be a great first item to help sustain against magic damage, without losing the amazing burn aoe damage effect from Sunfire Aegis

Around now you will also finish your Support quest, the only and best option for Immortal Leona Build is to choose Celestial Opposition, this item will give you damage reduction and an aoe slow effect around you after a few seconds, making it the MOST OP Item for engage supports like Leona

The next item for SUPPORT will be, Protoplasm Harness a very cheap and powerful item for Leona to make you a monster, this item will give you HP and Ability haste, plus a passive effect that after you drop below 30% HP you will gain, MAX HP, Hp regeneration, %Size (Bigger effeft for Sunfire Aegis), TENACITY and movement speed to reach the targets, as you can imagine everything our Immortal Leona Support Build need to destroy any enemy!

Next we will finish our Boots into MOST OF THE TIMES Mercury's Treads cause we need the extra TENACITY effect, plus to balance out the ARMOR and MAGIC RESIST!
If you playing against FULL AD teams with ZERO CC, then go for Plated Steelcaps especially against champion that using basic attacks as main source of damage, like for example Tryndamere Yasuo or Master Yi etc. this item will COUNTER THEM completely, cause it will reduce their pre-armor reduction damage by a certain % (its pretty big, cause after that you will recude it even further cause of your resistances)

If you got Bramble Vest cause you had lots of healing against you in lane, this item as it is will give us the heal reduction that we want, but, if you got lots of On-hit champions, like Yone, Yasuo or ADC champions like Ashe etc. then finish the item into Thornmail, this item will give you HP, ARMOR, Heal reduction but also a DAMAGE REPEL effect that will apply every time you got attacked by a basic attack!

If you didnt get Bramble Vest, cause for example you had only AP damage bot, or no heal effects, then choose 2 items from the next list!

Our Next and final Item for our Immortal Leona Build for Support will be

1. Iceborn Gauntlet If you didnt go for Thornmail then replace it with this item, Bonus HP, Armor, Ability haste and an EXTRA AOE Slow effect that will be applied after each skill you are using, making it perfect to slow down more than One target while focusing the enemy team!

2. Spirit Visage this item will give you hp, ability haste, mana regeneration, bonus HEALS and SHIELDS, this will help you multiply the heals from your items and runes and make you survive much longer!

3. Jak'Sho, The Protean One of the most powerful, if not the Strongest for Immortal Builds, this item will give you everything that you need to overpower all, HP, Armor, Mr and a passive effect that will increase your armor/mr even further that will stack with Aftershock and Conditioning that will multiply your armor and magic resist more than ever!

4. Unending Despair Bonus HP, Armor, Ability haste, damage and heal effect towards enemy champions, perfect as full build for Immortal Leona Bot lane, cause it will give you the heal effect that you need to survive and overpower any champion in teamfights!

5. Warmog's Armor We cant have this item out of the list, this item will give you insane HP, Hp Regen and a out of combat heal effect that will let you go full hp within seconds while being out of combat, as support support, for you to engage and then to need to engage against after a few seconds is a MUST, instead of being unable to do so cause of the low amount of or being dead, Warmog's Armor will give you the ability to always be full hp and ready to fight no matter what!!


If you are a support, then you already got the sup item to fill the last item spot with Celestial Opposition so now you are FULL Build and ready to destroy the enemy team

For Solo Lane:

As Laner, you will start with Doran's Shield, this item is one of the MOST GOLD Efficient items in the game, will give you everything that you need to survive early and together with the Second Wind you will have a double regeneration effect to keep yourself healthy while fighting!

At your first back you will focus to have 900-1050 Gold, and you will buy Bami's Cinder and a Refillable Potion that you will keep almost all game long, this will give you bonus HP and damage around you!

Remember, if you wanna build Winter's Approach you can also get Tear of the Goddess when you got the chance either before finishing Bami's Cinder or afterwards! Cause we need to start stacking it in order to have the full stacks after we start buying our 4th item! So when to buy Tear of the Goddess is up to you, if you think you can stack it after you complete your first item, then go for it, if not, then buy it as early as possible without of course changing the core build order!!

The first Item that we will finish will be Sunfire Aegis this item will give you HP, ARMOR and a Burn Effect, as Leona you will fight non stop and always stick to the target to apply this burn effect! Also just like Bami's Cinder and of course your W, they will both help you farm and clear waves much easier!

Note now, another option is to go for Hollow Radiance, no matter if you are Bot or in a Solo Lane, now that more and more people picking full AP Champions, this item will be a great first item to help sustain against magic damage, without losing the amazing burn aoe damage effect from Sunfire Aegis

For our 2nd Core item will be Unending Despair this item will give you HP, ARMOR, ability haste and an amazing aoe champion damage and heal effect, so from so early into the game, not only you will have insane stats, but also a heal effect that will help you sustain more, meaning apply more damage, this damage effect scales with your HP, so the more you are going towards late game, the stronger you will become!

Next we will finish our Boots into MOST OF THE TIMES Mercury's Treads cause we need the extra TENACITY effect, plus to balance out the ARMOR and MAGIC RESIST!
If you playing against FULL AD teams with ZERO CC, then go for Plated Steelcaps especially against champion that using basic attacks as main source of damage, like for example Tryndamere Yasuo or Master Yi etc. this item will COUNTER THEM completely, cause it will reduce their pre-armor reduction damage by a certain % (its pretty big, cause after that you will recude it even further cause of your resistances)

Now as 3rd item and only if you bought Tear of the Goddess (if not, ignore the item order to the next item), will start building one of the MOST OP items that exist for our Immortal builds, this will be Winter's Approach a super cheap item that will give you HP, Tons of MANA to spam your skills, %Mana to HP effect and NON-STOP SHIELDS every time you are using your(Q-E-R)skills to your enemies, that means in the entire teamfight, cause you will always have something to CC your enemies with (3 total skills)

Next and as 4th Item you will get Spirit Visage, this item is one of the most important and powerful items that you can choose, why? Cause it will give you HP, Magic resist, Ability Haste and a HUGE %Bonus Heals and Shields that together with Revitalize you will multiply your heals and shields for up to 40%, making your shields from Winter's Approach bigger and your heals from Grasp of the Undying, Triumph, Font of Life, Unending Despair to heal your more! Plus all the heal and shield effects from your allies as well! Making you an absolute BEAST while also balancing out the ARMOR and MAGIC resist of our build!

As last item for our Immortal Leona Build you can see below:

1. Jak'Sho, The Protean One of the most powerful, if not the Strongest for Immortal Builds, this item will give you everything that you need to overpower all, HP, Armor, Mr and a passive effect that will increase your armor/mr even further that will stack with Aftershock, Eclipse that will multiply your armor and magic resist more than ever!

2. Riftmaker, as Leona with the items we talked above, you already got SUSTAIN and DAMAGE there are no champions that can hope to kill you and what you can add as last item is Riftmaker, an item that will give you AP, HP, Ability haste, HP to AP effect, bonus damage effect and an OMNIVAMP EFFECT that will let you HEAL from the insane damage you are doing and together with Spirit Visage you will multiply this heal effect by up to 40% MORE!

3. Warmog's Armor One of the Most powerful items into this game, giving you a huge amount of HP, HP regen plus the ability to always be full hp if you are out of combat with almost a fountain heal speed, making it useful if you want to continue fighting non-stop even after you left with 1hp!

4. Liandry's Torment another powerful item that will work great with Riftmaker and if you wanna you can ignore Winter's Approach to buy BOTH of Riftmaker and Liandry's Torment for the following stats.
Bonus AP, HP, 2x bonus %damage effects and on top of Heal to have an AOE BURN EFFECT that will be applied with your skills, making you an absolute beast, if you go in, on any target, be it tank or squishy, you will be able to melt them with ease within seconds!
