LeBlanc
View on Wiki
Excellent (9.5/10)
Low Investment
Rare Relics OK
LeBlanc is widely analyzed as one of the most powerful and efficient champions in the game, even when restricted to a three-star ceiling. Her ability to generate infinite value and clear the highest-difficulty encounters with minimal investment makes her a premier choice for both new and veteran players.
The Strike Chain
On summon, strikes the weakest enemy, facilitating rapid leveling and board control through repeated summons.- A second copy ensures that most summoned clones will immediately clear multiple threats or the same target twice.
- The third copy maximizes the board-clear potential, often resulting in a complete enemy wipe every time a LeBlanc clone is generated.
Strategy
This strategy focuses on utilizing LeBlanc's level-up condition and Mirror Image spell. By stacking strike-on-summon effects, every LeBlanc clone created during an attack or via spells will immediately execute multiple strikes. This frequently results in an 'infinite' loop where strikes generate the damage necessary to produce more Mirror Images, effectively clearing the board and ending matches in a single turn.
Epic Item Manifestation
Increases the density of LeBlanc copies in the deck and reduces the cost of her champion spell, which is vital for maintaining momentum.
Grants Epic items to cards in the deck upon summon. With LeBlanc's ability to summon clones, this effect triggers multiple times per round.- A second copy accelerates the accumulation of Epic items, quickly turning every card in the deck into a win condition.
Strategy
This build leverages the high frequency of LeBlanc's summons to saturate the deck with Epic items. By attacking with a leveled LeBlanc, the resulting ephemeral clones trigger the orbs repeatedly. This strategy is particularly effective when hitting items like 'Rally on Death' or 'Scout,' which can trigger infinite attack sequences.
Other Relic Options
Provides stat scaling and Overwhelm, which is useful for finishing games if the board is already clear of blockers.
Grants Overwhelm to the entire board, ensuring that LeBlanc and her high-attack clones can bypass chump blockers to strike the Nexus.
Offers a safety net and allows for an extra summon trigger upon revival, which re-activates other summon-based relics.
Ensures that the ephemeral clones generated during an attack persist through combat, allowing them to utilize their high attack stats fully without dying to blockers.
While Blue (Rare) relics are often considered optimal for LeBlanc's strike-based loops, Epic options like Echoing Spirit significantly increase consistency by ensuring she is drawn early and her spells remain affordable.
Constellation
LeBlanc is an outlier whose power budget is heavily concentrated in her base three-star kit. Unlike many modern champions who require four to six stars to handle endgame content, LeBlanc's ability to 'cheat' out units and strikes allows her to outperform champions with much higher theoretical investment levels.

Gameplay Tips
- Prioritize Leveling LeBlanc Immediately
LeBlanc's primary power spike occurs upon leveling up, as she begins generating Mirror Images. Use her champion spell or star power buffs to reach the 15+ damage requirement as quickly as possible, ideally by the first or second attack.
- Maximize Summon Triggers
Because LeBlanc’s kit focuses on creating ephemeral copies, relics that trigger 'On Summon' are vastly superior to those that trigger 'On Play.' Effects from relics like Stalker's Blade or Guardian's Orb will activate for every clone created, not just the original card played from hand.
- Fish for Cost Reduction and Rally Powers
When drafting, prioritize powers like 'Stabilize' or items that grant 'Rally' on death. These interact with LeBlanc’s clones to create infinite attack loops. Even without specific relics, obtaining a 'Rally' item on a LeBlanc in a deck with Mirror Image often guarantees an immediate victory.
- Manage Board Space Carefully
LeBlanc can easily fill the board with clones. Be mindful of board space before casting Mirror Image or initiating an attack with a leveled LeBlanc, as overfilling the board can prevent the summon of the attacking ephemeral clone, wasting a strike trigger.
- Draft Cheap Targeting Spells
LeBlanc’s support cards and star powers benefit from targeting. Drafting low-cost spells that target allies can help proc Reputation faster and ensure her 2-star power provides maximum tempo by reducing the cost of her generated cards to zero.
