LeBlanc vs Vladimir

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

LeBlanc is a mobile burst assassin who must pressure Vladimir early to disrupt his scaling and sustain.
Use your medium lane pressure to deny Vladimir a calm farming lane and force him into unfavorable trades.

Trading pattern

Use W for burst engage and repositioning, then threaten E root if Vladimir cannot respond.
Punish Vladimir when his Vladimir W is down, as he loses untargetability and is vulnerable to your burst.
Avoid trading when Vladimir's empowered Vladimir Q is ready, as his short trades become stronger then.

Danger windows

When Vladimir's Vladimir W is available, respect his untargetability and avoid committing to trades.
Avoid all-ins if you miss W engage, as Vladimir can punish your low mobility.
Be cautious around Vladimir's level 6 and item spikes when his burst and sustain improve significantly.

Early game

Abuse your level 2 power spike with Q+W or E to burst Vladimir before he can use Vladimir Q sustain.
Avoid extended trades if you miss W engage, as Vladimir can punish you when your mobility is down.
Keep wave control to prevent being pushed under tower where Vladimir's sustain and poke are safer.

Power spikes

LeBlanc's major spikes: level 2 burst with Q+W/E, level 6 R, and first completed AP burst item.
Respect Vladimir's major spikes: level 6 Vladimir R, first completed AP item, and empowered Vladimir Q windows.

Win conditions

Win by using your mobility and burst to deny Vladimir safe farming and force him to use Vladimir W defensively.
Punish Vladimir's long Vladimir W cooldown to trade aggressively and force him out of lane.
Control wave and roam when possible to snowball your lead before Vladimir scales into mid-game teamfight power.
