At a glance

You were drafted to eat exactly this — W through the wave, double-proc the sigil, and return before her rotation loads.

Track: Lissandra's E — Glacial Path (Claw, 24–12s cooldown). Her engage and escape in one button — she is immobile while it is down.

Do

  • Q-W double-proc every wave contact
  • Chain the half-bar windows at 6

Don't

  • Linger past the W return window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1LeBlancLevel 1 favours LeBlanc as Lissandra has zero gap-closing tools to punish poke this early
Level 2LeBlancLevel 2 stays LeBlanc-favoured since she's still purely reliant on slow root setups
Level 3LeBlancLevel 3 favours LeBlanc because her burst chain lands before Lissandra's Q-W combo fully resolves
Levels 4-5LeBlancLevels 4-5 remain LeBlanc-favoured as burst scaling keeps outpacing her root-reliant damage
Level 6Even / skillLevel 6: Frozen Tomb is 120s, so once she self-casts it she has no answer for two minutes.

How to beat Lissandra as LeBlanc: the early game

Levels 1-2 Lissandra has no reliable way to close distance or punish you at range, so your poke wins these trades cleanly while she's stuck setting up slow root combos. Track Glacial Path is 24s at rank 1 and only 12s at rank 5: while the claw is down she has no exit from your W. Lissandra needs Ice Shard (Q) at 725 to slow you into Ring of Frost (W), which roots at just 450 — stay outside that circle and her whole setup is a slow with no follow-up, while your E reaches 925.
