Players take Leon into Knockout most often: 46% of its matches are played there, where it wins 49% (290 matches, reliable). Leon wins clearly more often than it loses in Bounty: 55% over 246 matches (reliable), 5 points above its overall win rate. Leon loses far more often than it wins in Gem Grab: 38% over 58 matches (early signal), 12 points below its overall win rate. Too few matches to show a win rate: Hot Zone (22 matches), Brawl Ball (11 matches), Heist (6 matches).

Leon's strongest measured map is Shooting Star (Bounty): 61% over 100 matches (fairly reliable). Belle's Rock looks even better at 62%, but 45 matches is only an early signal. Its weakest is Flaring Phoenix (Knockout): 39% over 51 matches (early signal). 8 maps have at least 30 Leon matches; maps with fewer are left out.

On these maps Leon loses more often than it wins. The match count tells you how much weight to give each one.

A win rate only means something when enough matches sit behind it. Next to every number we say how sure we are:

• reliable — 200 matches or more: a solid basis for a verdict.
• fairly reliable — 80 to 199 matches: enough to spot a real pattern.
• early signal — 30 to 79 matches: a hint, not a verdict.
• too few matches — fewer than 30 matches, so we do not show a win rate yet.

A 60% win rate over 40 matches can easily be luck; a 54% win rate over 800 matches is a real edge. Maps and modes with fewer than 30 matches are listed without a win rate on purpose.

Blind-pick safety is coaching metadata, not a meta ranking: it says how risky Leon is to lock in before you can see the enemy draft. Leon scores 5/10.

Gadget: Clone Projector — A clone that makes the opponent misplay while you take the flank.

Star Power: Smoke Trails — Speed boost during your invisibility makes your engages and escapes unstoppable.

Gears: Gadget Charge + Speed — Your value is getting into position unseen.

Go invisible toward the backline, not toward the tank.

As a assassin, Leon is favoured into marksman, sharpshooter, thrower, artillery, support.

• With your invisibility to close in unseen you focus Gene: Gene has low HP and a slow attack.
• With your invisibility to close in unseen you focus Barley: Barley can't shoot directly, so standing on him is free damage.
• With your invisibility to close in unseen you focus Poco: Poco can barely defend himself.
• With your invisibility to close in unseen you focus Pam: Pam lacks mobility and her damage falls off at range.

Leon struggles against tank, controller, fighter and on maps that do not support the assassin role.

This is the coaches' view of which modes suit the assassin role of Leon; the measured win rates per mode are higher up on this page.

Leon is a reasonable middle pick — check which counters are still open before locking it.

Skip Leon when the map layout works against the assassin role, when an unfavourable matchup is still open on the enemy side, or when your team already has the same role covered.
