User blog comment:TheTobarMethod/Nerf Worthy Champs + Your Thoughts/@comment-11055317-20130703155812

...How is Leblanc overpowered? She has been bottom pile for ages since you can just survive her damage easily pre-6 then buy a Negatron cloak on your first back into an Abyssal, or just as an early damage mitigation if you're playing an AD caster. Aside this, she does absolutely nothing into lategame transition, everyone has MR? gg. Enemy carry bought GA/Warmogs/BV? gg. The only target you have left that is possible to actually burst is their support because once Leblanc's cooldowns go out, she becomes nothing but a walking bullseye.

In my opinion, Thresh, Draven and Jayce are the only champs 'ruling' this meta currently. All because they have pretty safe laning but also punish the people they are laning against extremely hard, and even if they mess up, they can still survive due to ridiculous base damage/poke/disengage.

This is an unbeatable formula and it all comes down to their kit. Though the upcoming Draven passive switch was completely deserved. I feel there are certain champs that are obviously very strong picks when compared to others, but practically everyone you mentioned relies on completely dominating their lane or roaming until they are fed to their ears (besides Singed and Ryze because they can just follow buildpath and start dominating), which won't happen if you play smart.
