Tank class in general doesn’t have enough variety in it in terms of character types, there’s not enough tanks who are ladies or at least who don’t look like a big meatball. Most of the tanks like K’sante, Sion, Ornn, and Malphite, etc are just this very similar shape, I want more tanks that don’t have super similar silhouettes. A knight-in-armor sword and shield frontline tank is somehow an underrepresented archetype in this game.
Off the top of my head we’ve only got Rell, Leona, Poppy, and Sejuani for women tanks. Poppy is kinda the only one of the four who is viable in toplane since nobody seems to consider Sejuani top good anymore (if this is still good let me know). Leona is the only one here who is support exclusive and doesn’t see any play in a farming role whether that is jungle or elsewhere.
We’re probably not getting any new farming tanks for a very long time, K’sante was our first tank since Ornn and before that our last farming tank release was Zac (excluding Rell midscope, Poppy Rework). If they aren’t super interested in releasing farming tanks then I’d love it if more of the support tanks like Leona for instance were viable in a farming role also to create a little more variety not only in picks but in visual. As someone who doesn’t really jive with K’sante’s playstyle, I’d prefer to not have to wait another 5 years for the next tank release.
Recently we also had this push to get some support champs like Brand and Zyra and others into additional roles to give a little additional variety in the game rather than full releasing a whole new champion, and I think Leona is also a good option for similar treatment in toplane.
me tiioo like she has a sword and all make her do dmg riot . leona supp is so boring and dead anyways
No, Leona kit lack counterplay for her to be a viable healthy toplaner.
Why do you think her passive dmg require someone else to trigger it ?
