LeBlanc | Deathknell Value | Deck Guide

LeBlanc is a Mind/Order Deathknell value deck built around making temporary copies of units you actively want to lose. After you conquer or hold, the Legend can discard a card and exhaust to create a ready Reflection at that battlefield copying another unit there. Because the copy is Temporary, its Deathknell can become another source of value when it eventually dies.

Early game: Establish your Deathknell engine with Soaring Scout, which channels a rune when it dies, and Watchful Sentry, which draws a card. LeBlanc, Fragmented is especially valuable to copy because its Deathknell draws two cards if it dies during your Beginning Phase. Seal of Unity gives you additional rune flexibility while you develop.

Mid game: Karthus, Eternal makes every friendly Deathknell trigger an additional time, dramatically increasing the value of your disposable units and Reflections. Mirror Image creates another ready temporary copy, while Deathgrip lets you kill a friendly unit on demand, transfer its Might to another threat for the turn and draw a card. Glasc Mixologist can also turn its own death into another unit from your trash.

Late game: Ruined Rex turns each Deathknell into 4 damage to an enemy unit, becoming especially threatening when copied or supported by Karthus, Eternal. Mirror Image and the Legend keep producing extra bodies and extra triggers, while Hidden Blade gives you a flexible answer to important battlefield units. Keep converting temporary units into cards, runes and removal until the opponent can no longer match your resource advantage.
