LeBlanc vs Varus Matchup Summary

The LeBlanc vs Varus matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Varus wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to LeBlanc's 20.0%, giving Varus a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Varus controls the early laning stage, but LeBlanc outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Varus needs to press advantages before LeBlanc reaches their power spikes, while LeBlanc should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Varus leads by 262 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Varus has a strong advantage in this matchup. LeBlanc players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Varus overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
6.3LeBlanc
6.2Varus
LeBlanc and Varus farm at nearly identical rates in this matchup, with only a 0.0 CS/min difference. Neither champion holds a meaningful farming advantage, so lane dominance will come from trading and jungle interaction rather than CS leads.
Damage
724LeBlanc
881Varus
Varus heavily out-damages LeBlanc by 157 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. LeBlanc should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Varus's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
11,009LeBlanc
12,508Varus
Varus generates a commanding 1,500 more gold per game than LeBlanc. This substantial economic advantage means Varus consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

0.6LeBlanc
0.8Varus
Both LeBlanc and Varus provide similar amounts of crowd control (0.2s/min difference), meaning neither has a significant advantage in locking down opponents for ganks or team fights. Lane ganks are equally effective for both sides.
Sustain
500LeBlanc
763Varus
Varus vastly out-sustains LeBlanc, healing and mitigating 262 more damage per minute.

Varus dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 100.0% win rate — a 100.0 percentage point lead over LeBlanc. This lopsided early game means Varus can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with LeBlanc at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Varus. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Varus has the edge early, but LeBlanc gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
