Today's threat · Sep 7

LeBlanc
Why it wins
Top 4 finishes at Dallas and the fourth CCS qualifier confirm LeBlanc as a durable source-engine threat under the current token rules.
Meta snapshot
Full Counter HubThe established Legends defining the 1v1 field, audited through the final Unleashed results. Vendetta data is still pending.

Battlefield Tempo · Vendetta most played
Irelia remains the largest current Vendetta aggregate at 41 of roughly 396 recorded lists and put two copies into the first post-street-date weekend's Top 8; ready-engine prep remains mandatory even as conversion swings by room.
Counter plan
Battlefield Tempo · Vendetta event winner
Won the 32-player Sideways Showdown CN vs World event and finished second at the 72-player Rift Tour phase 1 N.2 qualifier; early spell-tempo conversion keeps Diana in the first counter wave.
Counter plan
Spell Control · Vendetta Top 8
Pittsburgh made Ezreal a late-Unleashed winner, Haven made it the first post-street-date weekend winner, and the Italy paper event still put it in the Top 8; Arcane Shift and Prodigal Explorer remain first-wave tests.
Counter planWide Board · Three-event surge
Hartford Top 8, second and third at Dallas, then sixth at Beijing make Annie a mandatory pressure test rather than an isolated spike.
Counter plan
Tall Threat · High share, cooling
Wuju Bladesman remains a mandatory tall-threat test: two copies reached the Italy Top 8, including fourth place, while Master Yi still led the Chinese release field. Its current share is high enough that every gauntlet needs the threat turn.
Counter plan
Engine / Equipment · Vendetta event winner
Won the first sizeable Vendetta-format event: a 109-player NovaRiftbound room with 93 recorded decklists. The winning list was the only Azir deck in that field, making gear-engine prep urgent but still early.
Counter planLatest intel
Counter plans, meta watch, and rules coverage written around real tournament results.

Barcelona made Ornn a real Regional Qualifier deck, Milwaukee made Rengar a US pillar, and Wuhan shows China converging on Kennen. Here is the September Riftbound Vendetta testing queue.

The latest US Vendetta results keep Rengar and Master Yi at the front of the gauntlet, while Ornn won the 2,224-player Barcelona Regional Qualifier. China’s newest City Challenges add Diana, Fiora, Jayce, and Kha’Zix to the watchlist.

Rengar won the 594-player Ottawa Showdown without a match loss, while Rek'Sai put three decks in the Top 8 and Kennen remained the most-played Legend. China's eight-city Vendetta circuit added a sharp Kai'Sa split and a wider testing gauntlet for US players.
