Tips Against Leona as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Artoria says “Leona is one of Milio’s hardest matchups because her engage is point-and-click and unavoidable once she commits. Even if you cleanse one effect, she follows up with more CC. Milio thrives when fights are slow and extended; Leona forces explosive, all-in fights where timing matters less than raw lockdown.”
Nobreav says “Counter-Engaging Leona's Engage When Leona engages with her E, use your W to push the enemy ADC away, isolating Leona, or use your Q to knock her up and push her towards your turret to gain an advantage in the trade. Neutralizing CC with Your Ultimate When caught in Leona's powerful CC chain after level 6, use your ultimate to immediately cleanse all crowd control effects and reduce incoming damage, increasing your survivability.”

saucyyyy says “Leona's gameplan is to get onto your ADC and shut them down. Most of this lane will both of you just killing the other ADC, but if you have a strong enough ADC you can play to peel leona off yours and just kill her. Can buffer all her CC's, E when you see her cast E. And E onto your ADC if she goes for them. Hard outscale with Cleaver.”

Alchemyr says “She out-CCs you if she goes first. Whoever engages first often loses unless they vastly outnumber. Mirror her mindset: if she dives your ADC, W-taunt the ADC she's enabling or taunt her mid-dash so her ADC can't follow.”
TIJUA says “Hard engage matchup. Play back. Shield ADC always, tornado when she E’s. After 6, you can ult instantly to cancel her combo.”

AscentTurtle says “*you rely on having mobility, so a character who denies that and takes a hit is scary”

Killeia says “Early game Leona isn't much of a threat to you. It's the late-game Leona that you should be scared of. Her combos are to be respected!”

Kizzer says “just a CC machine, just bait her into tower, she can cancel your E with her E so play deffensive”

Suseri says “Point in click hard CC, paired with multiple other sources of immobilizing you and solid tankiness, make her very annoying to deal with. I recommend getting tenacity as it'll allow you to avoid her CC combo and make her more bearable.”

YujiYT says “The Yuumi vs. Leona matchup is another highly unfavorable lane for Yuumi, especially in the early game. Leona thrives on hard engage, burst combos, and crowd control layering, all of which Yuumi struggles to deal with. With tools like Zenith Blade (E) and Shield of Daybreak (Q), Leona can quickly engage onto Yuumi’s ADC and lock them down before Yuumi’s poke or shielding can meaningfully respond. If Yuumi detaches at the wrong moment to reposition or heal, Leona can often chain CC her instantly, resulting in a free kill due to Yuumi’s low base stats and lack of mobility when unattached. What makes Leona particularly dangerous is her ability to force fights on her terms, often before Yuumi’s lane has any real chance to scale. Yuumi wants to play extended, low-commitment trades with poke and sustain, but Leona specializes in short, explosive all-ins. Her ultimate, Solar Flare, also adds long-range engage that can catch Yuumi’s ADC off guard—even under tower or behind minions. Once Leona hits level 6, her kill pressure increases dramatically, and Yuumi has little to no way to interrupt or peel back against it unless her ADC plays extremely safely. In this matchup, Yuumi must rely on cautious positioning, attach timing, and ideally have an ADC with mobility or strong waveclear to survive lane. However, even with careful play, Leona’s ability to snowball lane and force Yuumi onto the back foot makes her one of the strongest supports into Yuumi overall.”
