Passive: After player combat, your strongest LeBlanc has a 10 / 15 / 40% chance to create a copy of an ally on your board, increased by 4% per takedown.
Active: Launch a mirror image at the current target, dealing 260 / 390 / 615 (
) magic damage and 100 / 150 / 230 (
) to adjacent enemies.
// Cast timeline
From the mana bar filling until mana can come in again. No mana comes in during this time.
- attack animation
- attack lands
- attack recovery
- cast window (mana locked)
First cast at 6.29 s with 0.70 attacks per second. Items, traits and damage taken change the mana pace; the cast, effect and channel windows do not.
Step by step, in words
- Mana reaches 40/40: the cast starts and the mana lock goes on (no mana from attacks, ticks or damage taken).
- 0.00 to 1.83 s: cast window. The unit plays its cast animation and its return to idle; it cannot auto attack.
- 1.83 s: unlock. Mana starts again (overflow kept) and a fresh attack starts from zero; it lands at 2.02 s at base attack speed (the attack delay is 13% of the attack animation).
- Attack loop: the attack lands at 13% of the attack animation (mana granted) and unlocks at 40%; a cast that becomes possible at the landing starts at that unlock point, cutting the rest of the attack.
- Mana gain: 7 per attack and 2 per second; combat starts at 0/40.
- Overflow is banked: mana past 40 from attacks or regen is kept through the cast (38/40 plus 7 casts and comes back with 5). Same rule for every champion; only the amounts differ by role.
Measured at 2 stars on a level 8 board the Trait Explorer builds around its traits (optimal tall, its traits at their lowest breakpoint, teammates at 2 stars without items, positioned by role), against a level 8 enemy comp (Elderwood Lux, Ornn, Xayah, Alistar, LeBlanc, Hecarim, Ezreal, Gnar: 3 tanks, 1 melee, 4 ranged, 2 stars), over 20 seconds of combat with real cast times, mana lock and item effects.
Its board: LeBlanc, Elderwood Lux, Ornn, Veigar, Xayah, Alistar, Tristana, Gnar.
// Survivability
Alone, no items, 2 stars: its own damage against a 30 armor / 30 magic resist dummy, and what it soaks under 600 damage per second, half physical, from 4 attackers, over 20 s.

2-cost ranged AP Caster (game role tag, range 4). It can hold the team Sunder and Burn items for an AD comp; its own AP damage does not profit from the debuff. Mana lock 1.83 s per cast against a 5.9 s fill (24% locked). Casts per minute at base speed 7.7; with Spear of Shojin 10.9, Blue Buff 11.4, a +45% attack speed item 9.5. Blue Buff and Spear of Shojin are within 5% of each other, so either keeps the loop rolling; the default mana-per-attack set stays. One Sunder item and one Burn item for the team, plus the third item that adds the most calculated damage for LeBlanc (286 DPS at 2 stars against three 2-star tanks). Ionic Spark, Evenshroud and Sunfire Cape are left out: at range 4 their aura would not reach the enemies.
