LoL has many advertising faces, that’s for sure, but it is obvious that the most popular advertisement face of the game is Lux. Lux, who even has his own comic book made in cooperation with Marvel and Riot Games, is a very popular champion in the game.
Although she is a support champion, Lux can also become a very powerful mage in mid lane thanks to her strong ability power ratios and a fairly simple kit. Let’s take a look at the abilities, strengths and weaknesses, ct’s and gameplay suggestions of this powerful and popular champion.
Lux CTs:
- Janna
- Nami
The ct characters we gave for Lux in this guide are the ones that give her the most difficulty in her supporting role. What Sona, Janna and Nami have in common is that they can always provide shields and health to their snipers. Because of this, these champions disable Lux’s pokes and limit her power in the early game, preventing her from snowballing.
All of Lux’s abilities:
- Passive – Illumination: Lux’s damaging abilities charge the target with energy for a few seconds. Lux’s next attack ignites energy and deals bonus magic damage (based on Lux’s level).
- Q – Link of Light: Lux can unleash an orb of light that binds and damages up to two enemy units.
- W – Prismatic Barrier: Lux throws a boomerang that shields herself and allies. In this way, it also protects them from enemy damage.
- E – Burst of Light: Lux fires a circle of light into a specific area that slows nearby enemies inside it, which she can detonate at any time. This causes damage to enemies in the area of effect.
- R – Final Radiance: After collecting Lux’s energy, she can fire a beam of light that can damage all enemies in her area of effect. This ability also triggers Lux’s passive – lighting ability.
What are Lux’s strengths and weaknesses?
Strengths:
- Has one-shot potential
- His shield is much stronger than you think
Lux really has one-shot potential with her full Q + E + R combo. This can easily wipe out a fragile enemy from the map, starting at level six. His shield, contrary to popular belief, is very strong because it can save all a lot of poking. This ability can be used to secure the surrounding area when passing through enemy jungle or blind areas.
Weaknesses:
- Can be killed instantly if lying still
- An easy target if he moves away from the team
Can be killed almost instantly if caught too still and without Q. A Lux caught in a crowd control chain has no chance of salvation. He’s also somewhat dependent on items, so camping and killing him as a jungler early in the game can only turn him into a shield bot in the late game. A Lux who strays away from her team is an easy target.
Tips for playing Lux:
- In the laning phase of the early game, try to poke the opponent with your E ability, and when you have reduced the opponent’s health enough, try to swoop in with all your skills. Try to keep your sniper alive and in the lane as much as possible, and don’t forget to shield him at appropriate times.
- You become an easily killable target when playing support in the midgame, so it would be best to move with your sniper or jungler by your side. In this way, it will be easier for you to misfire what you catch.
- We can say that the late game Lux “shines” the most. He turns into a champion that knocks everyone out, no matter tank or fragile. Of course, things also have an effect on this. An enemy rooted by Lux’s Q has no way of surviving, as her ult’s cooldown is also greatly reduced.
