SKILLS
Lethal Shot
If Lesley doesn't take damage for 5 seconds, her next Basic Attack gains extra range and 50% Crit Chance and deals 100 (+100% PA) true damage (20% extra damage against minions).
Each point of fixed Physical Penetration and each 1% Physical Penetration Lesley acquires is converted into 1% Crit Damage, but her base Crit Damage is reduced to 130%.
Lesley's Basic Attack restores 5 points of energy and her Lethal Shot doubles the amount of energy restored. The cooldown of Lethal Shot will activate immediately after Lesley uses a skill.
Master of Camouflage
Cooldown: 5–2 s by level
stealth
Lesley enters the Camouflage state, gaining double Energy Regen, 40% extra Movement Speed, and 85–135 extra Physical Attack.
The state lasts 3 seconds or until Lesley takes or deals damage. Enemies can detect Lesley's position through distortions of their surroundings.
Tactical Grenade
Cooldown: 10–7 s by level
knockbackblinkleap
Lesley throws a tactical grenade in the target direction while slightly jumping back, dealing 150–300 (+50% PA) physical damage to enemies in a cone and knocking them back.
Lesley can cast this skill during the Ultimate Snipe to cancel the state and immediately fire a Fatal Bullet at the target. The attack is only triggered when there are unfired Fatal Bullets left.
Ultimate Snipe
Cooldown: 40 s
Lesley [gains vision to nearby enemies and can lock] onto the target enemy hero and fires 4 Lethal Bullets in succession, each dealing 250–350 (+80% extra PA, +5% lost HP) physical damage and restoring 10 energy on hit. The Bullets can be blocked by other enemy heroes.
If this skill is interrupted, each remaining Bullet reduces the skill cooldown by 10%.
Passive: Lesley's Crit Chance is increased by 5%–15%.

HOW TO PLAY LESLEY
Use your first skill to stay in camouflage and poke enemies from a safe distance. Your passive converts physical penetration into critical damage, and after using a skill, your next basic attack deals true damage—abuse this to shred tanks.
HOW TO PLAY AGAINST LESLEY
- No protection from control — a stun before the engage wins the duel.
