Guide to Countering LeBlanc as Lux

Tips for Playing as Lux against LeBlanc

If you have trouble landing Prismatic Barrier, remember that it returns to you after it reaches max range. Try positioning yourself to hit your allies with its return trip.

Lux has great zone control abilities. Try to set up Lucent Singularity to prevent an enemy's advance or escape.

Lucent Singularity is a great scouting tool. Try throwing it into brush before walking into it to check for ambushes.

Advice to Win Against LeBlanc

LeBlanc's ultimate can create fake LeBlancs during her spellcast or, rarely, at a distant position.

The fake LeBlanc created at a distance will always run at the nearest Champion, cast a harmless spell, then immediately disappear.

Attacking LeBlanc first avoids most of her tricks, especially if she's recently used her dash, Distortion.

Stunning or silencing LeBlanc will prevent her from activating the return part of Distortion.
