Leona is a champion in League of Legends.[1]

Abilities[]

Edit

Sunlight

Sunlight

Innate: Leona's abilities mark enemies hit for 1.5 seconds, refreshing on subsequent hits.

Allied Champion icon champions' damaging attacks and abilities against a marked target will consume the mark to deal 32 − 168 (based on level) bonus magic damage.

Info
  • Sunlight's mark damage is credited to the allied champion and not to Leona.
  • Zyra Zyra has a hidden passive that grants her 10% increased size for 33 seconds after having Sunlight applied to her.

Edit

Shield of Daybreak

Shield of Daybreak

Active: Leona illuminates her shield, empowering her next basic attack within 6 seconds to have a 0.25-second cast time, gain Range icon 50 bonus range, deal bonus magic damage and Stun icon stun the target for 1 second.

Bonus Magic Damage:
10 / 35 / 60 / 85 / 110 (+ 30% AP)

Shield of Daybreak Bladework resets Leona's basic attack timer.

Info
  • The enhanced attack will apply other On-hit icon on-hit effects and can Critical strike icon critically strike as normal.
  • PENDING FOR TEST:: Shield of Daybreak's interactions with Jax Counter Strike old dodging, Spirit's Refuge blocking, and Blind icon blinding effects.
  • Shield of Daybreak's attack does not put Leona's basic attack on cooldown.(bug)
    • This effectively performs a second Bladework attack reset.
    • This is unlike other empowered attacks (including those which, similar to Shield of Daybreak, use a more unconventional spell cast rather than an attack override).
    • Leona will wait out Shield of Daybreak's wind-down before automatically attacking, anyway. The player must issue the next attack themselves to gain the full benefit of the second reset.
    • Probably not a bug because her High Noon skin gives the second attack a new distinguishable attack animation, which means that it's designed so.
  • If the target becomes Untargetable icon untargetable, Death dies, or is too far away during the empowered attack's cast time, it is cancelled but not consumed.
  • The empowered attack will not trigger against buildings.

Map-Specific Differences
Arena icon Arena differences edit
  • Cooldown changed to 6 seconds.

Edit

Eclipse

Eclipse

Active: Leona raises her guard for 3 seconds, gaining flat damage reduction of up to 50% of the damage instance and Armor icon bonus armor and Magic resistance icon bonus magic resistance.

Flat Damage Reduction:
8 / 12 / 16 / 20 / 24
Bonus Armor:
20 / 27.5 / 35 / 42.5 / 50 (+ 20% bonus armor)
Bonus Magic Resistance:
20 / 27.5 / 35 / 42.5 / 50 (+ 20% bonus magic resistance)

Her shield detonates after the duration, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies. If this hits an enemy, Leona's guard is extended for an additional 3 seconds.

Magic Damage:
55 / 90 / 125 / 160 / 195 (+ 40% AP)

Info
  • Neither the cast nor detonation of Eclipse interrupts any of Leona's previous orders or ongoing attack windups.
  • The resistance scaling will factor from all other sources, excluding Eclipse's flat bonus. This will recalculate over the duration.
  • Spell Shield Spell shield will block the damage but Eclipse's extended duration will not be prevented.

Map-Specific Differences
Arena icon Arena differences edit
  • Cooldown changed to 14 / 13.5 / 13 / 12.5 / 12 seconds.

Edit

Zenith Blade

Zenith Blade

Active: Leona projects her sword in the target direction that deals magic damage to enemies hit.

Magic Damage:
50 / 90 / 130 / 170 / 210 (+ 40% AP)

If she hits at least one enemy Champion icon champion, she will Dash dash 225 units behind the last one struck within 3000 range and Root icon root them for 0.5 seconds.

Leona is Lockout icon 2 unable to move or attack while Zenith Blade is in flight. She can cast any of her abilities during the dash.

Info
  • Leona will be ordered to basic attack the target.
  • Spell Shield Spell shield will block Zenith Blade's effects as well as preventing Leona from dashing to the last target hit.
  • This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the end of the cast time.

Edit

Solar Flare

Solar Flare

Active: Leona calls down a solar flare that strikes upon the target location after 0.625 seconds, granting Sight icon sight of the area before impact and for another 3 seconds afterwards. Enemies hit are dealt magic damage.

Magic Damage:
150 / 225 / 300 (+ 80% AP)

Targets are also Slow icon slowed by 80% for 1.75 seconds, or Stun icon stunned for the same duration if they are hit by the epicenter.

Info
  • Solar Flare's visual effects are only visible to enemies if they have Sight icon sight of the area it was cast upon.
  • The cast indicator shows 300 radius for the area of effect and 120 radius for the epicenter, however the actual hitbox radii are larger than those values.
  • The revealed radius is not obstructed by terrain or Brushmaker brush.
