I smell the nerf bat getting ready.

She's one of the fewer heroes to have all four skills to be awesome nukes. Most other characters stop at having 2~3 nuking skills, while the other skills are utility skills (Annie, Veigar), or some skills don't scale with AP too well to be called a nuke (Kennen) or they scale with something else entirely (Vladimir).

Now, I know- having four nukes should be strategically in par with three nukes and a utility! That may be true, only that LeBlanc is indeed extremely utility-heavy at the very same time; currently, comes with a full two-second -ranged- silence (four with mimic), a slow that results in a 1s snare (double duration slow and snare with mimic), and/or a (double) flash -- and her ridiculously-awesome-if-used-right passive.

Bonus points comes from her adaptability. Imagine what would happen if you had a choice to over-write one summoner spell with another at any point in the game, be it double-exhausting the enemy or flashing twice. That's precisely what her ultimate is about, and it can be abused as much as it sounds.

I really hate ever saying these words, but she's quite OP at this point. Escapes, adaptability, damage; she has all three like no other.
