leo Test unleashed

Leona offensive matchup verse all For more offense - May remove seal and sett kingpin for yasuo remorseful depending on how some meta decks move and vengeance. For more defense on battlefield (not versus spells) - swap in stalwort poro in place of daring poro and add another shen to save sona. Objective for game 1: stay on top of startipped peak by going first and putting out a turn 1 creature. If you have no turn 1 creature then play leona determined second and attempt to take with spells. We need to stay on top of this battlefield for rune advantage, the great thing is, leona is a great holder of battlefields. Hidden blade and zhonyas can ensure some of this. Game 2: Obelisk of power if not against kaisa, trifarian warcamp if against kaisa. Go second here to channel 4 runes first turn for the first turn leona. NOTE: This deck relies on good play of the utilities at hand. Hidden blade if used too early may hurt your play. The fact that you have the option to use hidden blade on both your and the opponent units makes it a unique utility tool against unit focused decks that are not overwhelming with creatures. If you are overwhelmed by robots the larger power on the creatures in the deck should help with the defense and hidden blade can take out the big ones. Or if your going to lose an encounter regardless of the hidden blade target then take down your own unit for card draw. It can also be defied so keep that in mind. If you find yourself going against another green deck that uses a ton of defy, swap hidden blade for vengeance so you don't get countered and go more offensive. Another note, we don't run spirits refuge in this deck. spirits refuge has some issues in the way it applies deflect that makes it weird to use in any deck. Deflect is great against kaisa and sett decks but since we run 3 fiora and she usually can get a buff one way or another (discipline or leona stuns) it doesn't seem worth right now.
