How to win lane as Annie against LeBlanc · 55.58% win rate over 1,299 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is an even skill matchup as LeBlanc's mana constraints limit her early aggression. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 stays skill-dependent — both sides trade cautiously around cooldowns and mana. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3-5 remains a skill matchup decided by who punishes overextensions more precisely. |
| Levels 4-5 | Annie | Levels 4-5 tilt toward you as your looming Tibbers threat starts limiting her aggression. |
| Level 6 | LeBlanc | Level 6 favors LeBlanc hard as Mimic's double-burst combo with Distortion safety nets a kill threat. |
| First item | LeBlanc | First item still favors LeBlanc since early burst items let her one-shot-adjacent you from range. |
| Two+ items | Annie | 2+ items swings back to you as your CC and Tibbers utility outscale her single-target burst kit. |
Levels 1-2 are a skill matchup where LeBlanc's Sigil poke can chip you but her low mana pool limits how often she can commit to trades, giving you room to punish overextensions with a stun. This carries into levels 3-5 as still fundamentally skill-based — whoever plays around cooldowns and minion aggro better wins the exchanges, though LeBlanc's ranged burst potential means she can snowball off any mistake you make.
