It's great that when you decide for items you don't just get this or that, there's a reason for why you opt for one thing or another. Great content! Keep up the great videos!
i freaking LOVE leona, playable in EVERY lane AND jungle. she has literally 3 stuns(1 is root but its a stun for me), she has in-built Resistances in her kit and she can either go AD with her stuns or AP with her skills and most of all, what i like to play her most, Tank-Stun machine. 5k health, 250 armor, 200 magic armor, 90+ Haste and and lots of fun. the only downside is the very early game as adc or jungler, but thats irrelevant if we take nasus into perspective on how long he needs until ganking properly. what i also like to play on leona is On-Hit build. it works wonders with her Q and E=AA. i must say it again, leona is that one champ, that her skills allow her, to play every single possible build. support already there. ad assassine, ad bruiser, Ap bruiser, Hp tank, resistance tank, tanky bruiser, onhit AD, onhit AP, true damage, full attack speed, and more. i even went only Starter item build and it fkn worked like yuumi on soraka! i probably talk too much but im just saying im GLAD you played leona and i probably will rewatch it 3 more times. gg wp
If you go ap leona you're legit trolling, her scaling got nerfed so hard that it's not even viable. If they wanted leona to do damage they wouldn't have removed her empowered R in s9.
If you want damage on Leona you want CDR more than anything else, because most your damage is gonna come from passive. Abyssal mask is also really good for this reason, cause the pen is gonna give a better damage boost than AP will.
@@bryanincommiefornia5629 Sheen is good, but there's really no great options to build it into anything. Tanks don't really have a great sheen option anymore, and triforce/sunderer just really arent what you want on Leona.
Hey I was the Illaoi mid that game. That build was absolute aids and I'm still shocked at how many times you managed to stop my W saving someone's life with perma stuns. That grasp and divine sunder damage was actually disgusting and I built around the sunder %hp dmg and your teams %hp dmg by going DD and maw for fiddle burst, that was the logic behind my weird build path. Should of just went gore into grudge tho and then save exhaust fiddle ults. Btw having 63% tenacity that game felt like nothing lmao. WP.
Try a 6 Active Items build on a tank like Rammus, Singed, Volibear, Maokai, or Sion. Predator Boots, Turbo Chemtank, Gargoyle Stoneplate, Randuin's Omen, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Redemption. Bring Ingenious Hunter too for CD on the item actives.
Divine is great when you need %HP damage for like a Nasus or something, I feel like Sunfire is consistently more damage though, especially with how rapidly Leona stacks it with AA resets. Definitely would not have survived that triple without sunderer heal though.
Sunfire is really nice because it gives you pmuch all the resistances you need as leona in combo with your W. You can then grab mostly health items to make up for your low base health, but you can always feel the lack of sustain on Leona. Sunderer isn't great for Leona now that it scales with your AD rather all being base damage on the item.
@@jeremycollins4566 man… if I only knew you weren’t going to like this idea Jeremy I would have never posted this comment. I am so sure you thought I wanted your opinion. ❤️
YES!!! THANK YOU!!! Edit: i dont think im the only one who wanted bruiser top leona, but i wanted this once, and then got the idea for bruisecrank so i didnt have like "Day xx of asking" it more just like - happened and im glad zwags playing this ♡
Leona is such a Chad champ. Another one that can basically do and build whatever she wants. Built like a tank and kitted like an assassin and a cc support, what more could you ask for? One of the most fun, get-in-your-face champs you can play.
video 26 of requesting 6 shield Shen. You have to build 6 Doran's Shields before you can buy any other item. Any item you buy must be a shield or give you a shield.
Ayo zwag. Each time you got shredded you didnt have W active. Its actually really low cooldown and its length increases when you hit an enemy with the exploasion. So just spamming it when fighting will actually make you a menece
Apparently Zwag can see the future because i was about to say "nice click bait title. You said win every trade and lost the first one" then he turns around and simply kills Gnar.
If the enemy only has 1 AP/AD threat i usually build Anathemas chains for that 1 person. If they get strong use it on them for the dmg reduction and if not chuck it on the carry for extra CC and reduced dmg.
Week 3 of going till I see it, Tank talon. Stride or frostfire, Thorn, Hydra, Cleaver, Then your choice of Gage or Maw. If you're feeling like going extra tanky though a Dead man's or a Visage isn't a bad choice. Your choice of runes with Grasp or Conq too
I just tried this fucking build, playing Leona top for the first time, absolutely demolishing enemy Sion. This is my new favourite off-meta, I think I love you XD
Zwag games makes you forget that league these days is either the last champion or rework stomping everyone (UDYR) or the most broken item at the moment being built in every lane (BOTRK)
At this point, we careth not for the bs build. We only want to see Leona :). Speaking of which, have you tried Goredrinker on Leo? I haven't coz I don't really play the game anymore, but it would be interesting. Goredrinker with Fimbulwinter (Winter's Approach), Cursed Mask (hehe, who wouldn't want hp + mana + mr + magic pen + mana regen all in one item?), maybe Frozen Heart (more mana = more shield). The last item (or if you wanna use a different item) maybe Quickblades (because Goredrinker) or Cosmic Drive. Or Sterak's. Edit: I actually typed Bloodthirster instead of Goredrinker lol.
instead of just a champion or build. get the boys together and do an invis comp. twitch and pyke bottom, elise jungle, rango top, teemo mid? bot and top all get duskblade. shenanigans ensue
Hey zwag I was messing around in a yasuo game and went against a 4 tank comp. The build was super fun and I’d love to see you pop off on it. Conq or lethal based on preference, botrk, sunfire, dd. I didn’t know whether to go crit after if we need dmg or get steraks for tanky.
Rell, let's see ya come up with a build that isn't just tank, and that makes her fun before her changed Alternatively, how about a non-assassin rek-sai that scales, or some wacky on-hit build on a champ that makes peple face-palm? Good game btw, keep it up, bro
Please be reminded that he's hard smurfing and that Leona's scaling is nerfed so hard since s9 If the enemy actually uses their brain leona can't do shit. If the enemy picks Fiora/Gwenn it's already over in champ select.
It's great that when you decide for items you don't just get this or that, there's a reason for why you opt for one thing or another. Great content! Keep up the great videos!
I had this same very conscious realization. If I would implement it, I could be much better!
yess I love watching Zwag's videos cause he's so logical. It's made me more aware of my own builds when playing
Zwag surviving the fight at 21:30 and getting a triple is just insane. I can't even imagine how tilting that was for the enemy team.
That was so fucking cool
classic bruiser leona moment
How is it insane to get a triple after being fed and then going up against enemies up to 4 lvls below and already low on HP?
Plays so good the enemy started asking for tips in all chat LMAO
“Did Zwag get the first 6 CS?”
No, he missed a caster minion
Lose Streak: 14
You’re a speed demon with the CS count
Damn 14 loses in a row 😢
@@pioterwbluzie dark days
day 38 of waiting for my dad to return
He won?!?!
I will never get tired of watching your Bruiser Leona videos.
I love them haha
Leona is the meaning of presence
Shield mommy
Gotta say, it was a nice little surprise seeing the enemy team chat about how to build for Leona top. Much better than the usual toxicity in all chat.
i always suspect these are custom lobbies he plays with his viewers
@@TB_m3x1c4n Wouldn't it say that instead of Normal (Draft) in the lobby?
Yummi: PAPA
Zwag: I don't need you.
*Sigma song in the background*
Zwag: teemo lives dont matter, it's just a rat.
me: scrolling for teemo mains flaming
"Nobody of value was lost, Teemo lives don't matter"
I nearly choked on my breakfast, bravo. 🤣🤣

i probably talk too much but im just saying im GLAD you played leona and i probably will rewatch it 3 more times. gg wp
I tried Leona jungle once, worst champion I've every tried jungling with, and I went on a short spree of Orianna jungle (long ago).

Zwag : Ouh, a cannon !
Back in S2 I was a Leona main support and it makes me happy to watch this video ^^ nice gameplay :D
19:08
"Nobody of value was lost. Teemo lives don't matter."
Aaaaaaaand subscribed.
As a 4 million mastery Leona, I can say that entire game was CLEEEEEAAAAAN. I0ki would be proud, and Aphromoo would hi-5 You.
10:39 : As soon as you said Xin he appears on the map. Give the Xin a rise for following the script on the dot xD.
The fact that Illaoi only had a Maw and you had 3 full items shows how broken she is.
She also had Adc next to her in case you didn't notice
I really like the interaction with enemy team, giving advice and all like real Gigachad
Divine is great when you need %HP damage for like a Nasus or something, I feel like Sunfire is consistently more damage though, especially with how rapidly Leona stacks it with AA resets. Definitely would not have survived that triple without sunderer heal though.

Just asked for Leona build like one day ago. I'm must be zwags favorite fan😅
Nice champion + a nice change of lane, that's definitely a like from me
I wanna see Kennen built around Evenshroud and Rylai's and Glacial Augment. Obviously insane buffs and slows and stuns.
that triple kill has to be one of the greatest float like a butterfly sting like a bee moments in league of legends history hahahaha
10:35 the disrespect
Dang that was a sick game Zwag! The cs'ing early was pretty smooth!
I've ran bruiser Leo for awhile now. As Supp, Top AND Jungle. Her gank potential is amazing.
YESSSS!! Didnt even watch the video yet and already smashing that LIKE button! Let's goo!
Great fun video. Love the 1HP narrow escapes.
These leona top videos are some of my favorite.
Love you Zwag, and keep doing the great work! Me and my girlfriend loves to listen to you while falling asleep
Zwag with bruiser Leona: Im stronger, Im smarter, .... Im better ...... I AM BETTER
Day 10 if asking zwag to troll flash every single time it’s up for a whole game thx
No

Peeped the sonic adventure 2 ost :3 good gameplay ❤
Why did Zwag play this, I thought ioki was the leona main XD
Thanks Zwag! I’ll try that build. :)
Heyyyyy I requested this a few days ago! THANKS ZWAG
YES!!! THANK YOU!!!
Edit: i dont think im the only one who wanted bruiser top leona, but i wanted this once, and then got the idea for bruisecrank so i didnt have like
"Day xx of asking" it more just like - happened and im glad zwags playing this ♡
Thank you so much !!! My prayers have been answered
Finally did a Leo top again I've been waiting zwag
Your videos are so crazy! I wish u played Evelynn to see something crazy with her!!
That skin is really cool
Thanks for the great Leona vid!
yo Zwag, great vid as always, how about playing a Grasp Sunfire tank Katarina build? it works wonders in ARAM but maybe it can work out on the rift xd
@nah I play these kind of things sometimes, I think it's just for show/fun and for the archive in the end.
It'd be cool to see a lethal tempo healing ww build top. ive been playing it lately and its been an absolute blast

Welcome to another i0ki video with our favorite Leona main.
Wow what a video! Just copied this and it was my first game Leona and she is so easy to play. I just got a S+ too. Thanks dude
What about frozen heart last item? I think it might be better than deaths dance cause it looks like you are in extended fights.
video 26 of requesting 6 shield Shen. You have to build 6 Doran's Shields before you can buy any other item. Any item you buy must be a shield or give you a shield.
I was thinking about a Leona top these past few days lol
Saaaaame
Ayo zwag. Each time you got shredded you didnt have W active. Its actually really low cooldown and its length increases when you hit an enemy with the exploasion.
So just spamming it when fighting will actually make you a menece
Me in a fight: *using 100% of my brain to focus on getting the kill*
This guy: ou a cannon
Them stun locks were beautiful😍
Something nice!
Also, Ap Tanky Tahm Kench.
Everfrost > Deminic > Spirit/thorn and so on.
Apparently Zwag can see the future because i was about to say "nice click bait title. You said win every trade and lost the first one" then he turns around and simply kills Gnar.
A think a more interesting build for Leona would be this splitpush build:
Sunfire or DS
Titanic
Hullbreaker
Demonic
Winter's/Thorn/FoN/BotRK...
If the enemy only has 1 AP/AD threat i usually build Anathemas chains for that 1 person. If they get strong use it on them for the dmg reduction and if not chuck it on the carry for extra CC and reduced dmg.
New Zwag lore just dropped..
Week 3 of going till I see it, Tank talon. Stride or frostfire, Thorn, Hydra, Cleaver, Then your choice of Gage or Maw. If you're feeling like going extra tanky though a Dead man's or a Visage isn't a bad choice. Your choice of runes with Grasp or Conq too
ioki better watch the number 1 Leona spot. Zwag's creepin up

Zwag games makes you forget that league these days is either the last champion or rework stomping everyone (UDYR) or the most broken item at the moment being built in every lane (BOTRK)
That Yuumi is the real thing :D
Thanks :)
Something nice for the algorithm: Thanks for Leona.
Thanks Zwag great video!
thank u for ur vids zwag 💕
Ever since the release of imperial mamdate in wildrift ap support feels good hope they release turbo chemtank and even shroud for tanks
What skin/chroma is that? It's really nice
Bruiser Leona vids are my faves
i’d love a Riven video😅
Another sterling Video. True mastery of the game, as always.
Zwag best league content creator
This game shows that Top lane/ bruiser items are op af
Yeah but it's also tank meta so no wonder any tanky champ is free wins
Finally after how many years of being a aids lane lol. They deserve to have fun for a lil bit 😋
This is ZWAG second video for today were the support YUUMI abandon the ADC. First he play MID ASHE and now LEONA TOP.
At this point, we careth not for the bs build. We only want to see Leona :). Speaking of which, have you tried Goredrinker on Leo? I haven't coz I don't really play the game anymore, but it would be interesting. Goredrinker with Fimbulwinter (Winter's Approach), Cursed Mask (hehe, who wouldn't want hp + mana + mr + magic pen + mana regen all in one item?), maybe Frozen Heart (more mana = more shield). The last item (or if you wanna use a different item) maybe Quickblades (because Goredrinker) or Cosmic Drive. Or Sterak's.
Edit: I actually typed Bloodthirster instead of Goredrinker lol.
I've been wanting a new bruiser Leona build. Thank you good sir
Also Day 7 of supporting the Riven guy
instead of just a champion or build. get the boys together and do an invis comp. twitch and pyke bottom, elise jungle, rango top, teemo mid? bot and top all get duskblade. shenanigans ensue
I feel like full burst AP Sej could be a thing? Is it a thing? Can we make it a thing?
Ap Sejuani mid is so much fun. Electrocute & cheapshot, dark seal start. Level 2 one shot combo
As a Leona apologist, I appreciate this video
*_Zwag_*
*First Cannon Minion*
*Wins: 218*
*Losses: 58*
*Lose Streak: 2*
is Yuumi top still a feesible cheese?
Is it possible for a bruiser nautilus. Not tank
Nah Zswagg that was krazy he lived wit 1Hp😂😂
Man, win every trade? Aight sure let's watch Zwag do some win trading.
you should do the tri force botrk build next!
That fking cannon kill in the midle of testing 1v1 xin was such disrespect
Would Sunfire Aegis with Nasher's Tooth and HP AP items work I wonder?
Leona is unironically a possible good tank top laner though...the CD's are so low it's just dumb and she always had a good early game when going AD.
Hey zwag I was messing around in a yasuo game and went against a 4 tank comp. The build was super fun and I’d love to see you pop off on it. Conq or lethal based on preference, botrk, sunfire, dd. I didn’t know whether to go crit after if we need dmg or get steraks for tanky.
When the Leona got tired of being support and decided to 1v9
Rell, let's see ya come up with a build that isn't just tank, and that makes her fun before her changed
Alternatively, how about a non-assassin rek-sai that scales, or some wacky on-hit build on a champ that makes peple face-palm?
Good game btw, keep it up, bro
If Brand didn't afk they probably would win the game. His ult with Leandry's deals a lot in late games like this.
Day...idk 3 of asking for a modern day POE Orianna build.
Leona with Gore, Spirit-Visage, and Fimble is unkillable
Ok this is super petty and just stupid but I don't know why but every time he says mana-MEWN I die just a little bit.
....
Mana- moo-ney
Please be reminded that he's hard smurfing and that Leona's scaling is nerfed so hard since s9
If the enemy actually uses their brain leona can't do shit.
If the enemy picks Fiora/Gwenn it's already over in champ select.
Zwag I'm new to league of legends can you make a series you play champions from the letter A to Z
most of the times you're full tank running it don't vs 5 and they all run away from you but now there is no escape
Try sunfire > demonic > thornmail > abyssal
Tanky & the enemy takes damage from being near/ touching you
Dark harvest/cheap shot & perseverance
