The problem with Leona is that tanks have to be at least a little bit of a threat (usually through CC) to be useful. Melee range stun and super delayed ult is by no means a threat. Unfortunately her gap closer is terrible unless you don't telegraph it by using your Q and/or shield, but if you don't activate those before you close the gap there's no reason to close the gap.

As it is now, she does no damage and insignificant amounts of cc. You can like her all you want, but that doesn't actually make her any better.

Umm lol? You can activate Q as you throw the blade and in team fights you want to activate W after or during blink anyway to maximize the resist buff time to reduce as much damage as posible. As for CC duration you should be building CDR anyway wich puts her stun on a 4.2 second CD which can really screw up anyones day not to mention a 1200 range stun on a 36 second CD which combo's very well witl her Q.

As for her "terrible gap closer" only alistar has a better one (none ult) as far as tanks go and his knocks them away. Sure amumu's has range but is slow and can be easily blocked by minions.

If leona is not your cup of tea thats fine but don't rag on her with invalide arguments because you cant play her well.
