So at this point i am wondering what i supposed to do as ranged supports against leona/thresh. If They start dorans shield and my aa's are doing 26 damage. At least against leona you used to be able to bully her pre-3 but at this point it seems i am better off afking in lane than harassing, which is boring.

I agree entirely that the EUW servers need major help, I don't agree with the idea that now NA is doomed now as well due to what most would conclude is a patch issue. I do have issue to say that no other games have ever had this problem because not only is that not the case it just makes it sound like only Riot has issues with bad servers. I am not excusing them but I am not surprised and neither should anyone else at this point.


v- Yeah I was going to go on a rant about how internets going to get worse in the US thanks to this but it's just pointless to preach to the choir. Only hope for good net at this point is hoping Google just takes over the nation and upgrades for sake of it's rule.

we've had days like this before, and now people are crying we're going to be come euw?
is this for real?

I tried playing Janna against Leona a few times this season... basically you ask her to be gentle.

I guess if I can Q all of her Es I can win, but until then

janna is a hard counter to leona when you start playing with the really good ones. Teamfights are another story, leona is still as effective as ever there.

Looks like Riot removed the part about random first pick in DuoQ from the patch notes because it probably didn't work.

I'll refrain from mentioning statistical details regarding priors and posteriors.

I feel in S2/3 Janna countered Leona really hard in lane. This could be due to Janna being OP (especially in S3), I don't know, but nowadays as Janna you do like 20 damage per auto against a Leona who regens like 4 health per second so I do feel it's better to just afk in brush.

You harass the AD when he goes for last hits instead.

When I play something like Lulu vs Leona, I harass the AD and 100% ignore Leona. Just Whimsy the AD when Leona goes in and keep ignoring her.

Also just shielding your ad so he wins trade 1v1 since you block leona from jumping makes it rather easy to get lane dominance.

but if i am harassing the ad leona can engage onto me. and then my adc cant hit theirs and both of them can hit me and we cant kill leona.

and since i cant poke at leona she can stay close enough to be in position to stop me.

also riot needs to get revert the preemptive supports might buy ap nerfs.

OK so you walk toward the adc to harass, and Leona walks towards you. What do you do? Do you:

Harass the ADC anyway and take a Leona E on your face, or
Kite Leona instead?

Why walk towards the adc to harass them? Just stand beside your minions and force him to walk into you to last hit. Obviously you can't force harass if your adc is standing way behind you and farming, you both need to keep the line together to force the enemy duo to choose between backing off out of cs range, or eating poke every time they try to farm.

If you just ward their brush, then get right up in the wave with your adc + lulu, they can't approach the wave to farm for level 1/2 without you + your adc getting an auto or two off, and if they try to engage, just both go onto their adc. Also try not to get e'd if you're adc isn't in position to support you, if that happens and you're ad isn't able to go straight onto their adc, then you're probably kind of screwed.

You ignore Leona.

If she uses her abilities on you, you Whimsy their AD and yours should be hitting theirs and you land EQ.

If your AD farms while this shit goes on, THEN you afk in bush because your partner is incompetent.

You also probably want to be standing closer to river than the bushes if Leona likes to sit in there. You'll be closer to their AD than Leona is to you.

Yeah Leona is the few supports that I feel so scared of in lane to do anything. Her pressure by just threatening to go all in is insane, not many supports can scrap with her
