Frequently Asked Questions

01Is Leona officially confirmed in the complete League Classic roster?

Riot confirms a 60-champion launch composition, but the complete name list used here is a community-datamined League Wiki observation. Leona's individual roster slot is therefore labelled community-datamined until Riot publishes or the launch client verifies it.

02Are Leona's ability values launch verified?

No. The displayed historical references come from Riot Data Dragon 3.15.5; observed and launch-verified value fields remain null.

03Is this the best Leona Classic build?

No. It is a Riot-authored historical item direction with no win-rate, Tier or launch-match sample claim.
