Getting back to the game after 2 years. What'd I miss?
tldr: I left just before vanguard hit league, but with the recent changes I'm willing to give the game a try.
Last year I saw that leblanc was getting a vgu and was tempted to go back, but I imagined that her getting more popular would do more harm than good (she's a pain to play against, so I foresaw complaints, high pick and ban rate and possible nerfs). But how's she doing today? Is she more popular than pre-vgu? Stronger? And how are her matchups against the new champions? (since vanguard)
Also, is she being played as support now? I watched a few clips on social media and thought that was interesting.
And last but not least: what happened to boots? In the clips I watched some champions don't build boots at all, while others do. Is that a new meta?
