Leona Build Guide (Support)
Leona is engage incarnate: Zenith Blade into Shield of Daybreak is a two-second stun chain, Eclipse makes her nearly unkillable mid-dive, and Solar Flare wins fights from a screen away. Pick a target and commit.
Summoner Spells


Runes
9x Minor Mark of Armor (+0.8 Armor)
9x Seal of Armor (+1 Armor)
9x Glyph of Magic Resist (+1.4 Magic Resist)
3x Quintessence of Gold (+1 Gold / 10 sec.)
Armor everywhere - Leona's job is to be inside the enemy team and still be standing; gold quints pay for the aura items.
Masteries 0/21/9
0/21/9 tank page: the full defensive tree makes every all-in survivable; utility rounds out the support economy.
