Oh yay, free Le Blanc week. Now I get to watch everybody all her OP when she isn't.

She is really hard countered in middle by ANYBODY who can heal themselves up and has half a brain about her range. You have to counter her like any other burst, buy MR and heal off the damage. Also, swain is a MASSIVE counter to her once he hits 6. Any swain paying attention will be able to just throw down a snare on her return point while pressing R when he see's that yellow ball incoming. Also, while she has an amazing AA for last hitting, her only farming ability is her escape mechanism, so if she uses that then she will have problems if she gets ganked in the next 12 seconds (at least).

I'm sorry she isn't a champion you can just go "Oh I will just roll my face on the keyboard and beat her in mid", you actually have to pay attention and watch her. This combines with the fact that her Q-W combo will cost her a large chunk of her mana.

Yes, she is a burst nuke champion with strong nuking ability. This is her job. This just comes at the expense of her being predictable. Force her to W in order to Q, then juke her chain. Congrats, you just dropped a 1.5+ AP ratio to .6.

Surprisingly enough, I actually found an MF in mid annoying unless I constantly towerdived her. Anyways, here is a nice little list of counters in mid to her. Kayle, Nidalee, Swain, Caitlyn (kite Le Blanc), a well played Heimer (look to a few ranked players, starting with a HP regen item on heimer and some potions), Cho'Gath, Alistar, Nunu, Sivir, Soraka, Vlad (if he actually dodges LB's ulti with pool which you are SUPPOSED to do), Soraka, and I probably missed a few Tanky DPS.
