Zilean vs Leona

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Control brush to deny Leona's engage angles and protect your ADC's positioning.
Use bomb zones and speed to enable your ADC's poke and kite windows.
Prioritize vision in river to track Leona's roam and ultimate setup.

Trading pattern

Set double bombs on slowed targets and wave to maximize stun threat.
Use (E) speed to reposition and peel when Leona commits engage.
Save (R) to counter Leona's all-in burst and enable ADC follow-up.

Danger windows

When (E)+(Q) combo is off cooldown and brush is uncontrolled, your ADC is vulnerable.
Post-level 6, (R) can start fights from range, requiring tighter positioning.
If Leona's ADC steps too far forward, they become prime targets for your bombs and follow-up.

Early game

Track level 2 closely; contest only if your ADC can follow Leona's engage.
Use (Q) bombs to zone and slow before Leona reaches engage range.
Hold brush control to prevent Leona from surprising with (E)+(Q) combo.

Power spikes

Level 2: Your (Q)+(E) speed combo enables strong poke and disengage versus Leona's engage.
Level 3: (W) resets (Q) for double bomb setups, increasing pick and peel potential.
Level 6: (R) revive forces Leona to hesitate on full commitment, shifting engage risk.

Win conditions

Convert bomb zone control into ADC poke windows and deny Leona's engage angles.
Use (R) to negate Leona's burst and enable safe extended trades or disengages.
Ward river and timing for dragon to prevent Leona's roams and secure objective control.

Tip: For Zilean vs Leona, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
