It's not like she is not good, but she was definetly better before the patch. Bad LeBlancs would just QWE in line. Good ones tried to maximize the damage and the silence duration with combos that now you can't perform due to the CC reduction, so you are stuck doing the typical LB combo. Her mid game is not as good anymore as you don't have the same damage and lategame you can't oneshot with dfgQR combo. Yes, you can farm better, you can still put preassure in line and lategame you don't need to be hideously fed to kill, but you have to be careful and perform your combo dfgQRE to kill, and chains are easily blocked.

So yeah, she can be good and the best part of her now is that since you scale way better into late game and you can farm better, you don't need to be too worried about getting counterpicked. Morgana, morde, sion... Usually these champs were almost impossible to kill (if played right) with no help, and they pushed the line so you couldn't roam. Now It doesnt really matter since you scale good into late even if not fed, and you can push better. She is not a risky pick now.
