Qiyana vs LeBlanc

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Qiyana controls the lane by leveraging terrain and element swaps to threaten burst trades and punish LeBlanc's mobility cooldowns.
Maintain medium lane pressure to deny LeBlanc safe scaling and force her under tower where she struggles with waveclear.

Trading pattern

Prepare the correct element with W before engaging; use Q for poke and setup short trades.
Commit E only when LeBlanc W (LeBlanc W) or mobility cooldowns are down to punish her repositioning.
Favor trades near terrain or brush to maximize R threat and element synergy.

Danger windows

Respect LeBlanc W (LeBlanc W) engage; missing it creates a strong punish window.
Avoid extended fights away from terrain when R is down, as burst and crowd control potential drops.
Be cautious if committing E without kill pressure; LeBlanc can retaliate with her high mobility and burst.

Early game

Use level 3 power spike to set up element-enhanced Q poke and short trades before committing with E.
Push LeBlanc under tower early to exploit her low waveclear and limit her roaming threat.
Avoid committing E without lethal threat or escape path to prevent counterpunish from LeBlanc's high mobility.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Q-W-E burst trades with element setup and dash access.
Level 6 R greatly increases kill potential around terrain or river fights.
First lethality item completion significantly boosts burst damage to punish LeBlanc's squishiness.

Win conditions

Use element swaps and terrain control to create lethal burst trades and force LeBlanc under tower.
Punish LeBlanc's mobility cooldowns with E engages to secure kills or summoner advantages.
Snowball river and flank fights using R to leverage terrain stuns and roam impact, denying LeBlanc safe scaling.
