Yeah I remember when her dash was 3 seconds. But the main reason they added a second to her return time is because in the patch/patches before hand her silence was removed. This had a much greater impact on her then the added second on W had. It was a necessary nerf, but they still had to compensate it somehow. This was the time where LeBlanc's popularity immediately dropped. She use to be banned quite often and then no one banned her anymore because of how the nerf 'destroyed her'. I still remember in ranked, people use to tell me not to use LeBlanc because of how 'useless' she was then. This eventually led to the stealth buff on her passive, Q damage buff and possibly ult damage buff (I could be wrong on the ultimate).

I generally don't use win rates when talking about champions, but since were talking win rates now I'm going to mention she has a 47% win rate currently. I'm going to make an assumption about that 4% spike: Since at that time quite a lot of people stopped playing LeBlanc, I assume mainly good player or players who have played LeBlanc for a while kept playing her and were able to play around the silence removal and benefit from the buffs. This would've lead to an increased win rate. Again though, this is my assumption.

@Einsoph5 I don't think it is necessary to add a wait time to her W. You must consider that LeBlanc dashes to an area, Zed blinks.
