Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Orly? I found it really tough to keep LB from chunking me down with her blink at early levels. And since LB is the queen of dodging skillshots and Lux is all skillshots it ended up being a pretty miserable lane last I played it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanco Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Just keep your distance. Last-hit with your E to the best of your ability, but you will inevitably take some damage when you auto the remaining creeps. Just press W when you do, that should help. An early Chalice also goes a long way. LeBlanc also sucks in teamfights. That's where Lux is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Yeah, IIRC I did go tear that match, which was probably a bad idea >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanco Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Only time I go tear on Lux is into an AD matchup, so that I can still have leftover mana to lane while I rush a Zhonya's ASAP. (Granted, the only AD matchup I've faced recently is Zed, which makes a Zhonya's rush almost imperative anyway.) Against APs, Chalice is where it's at.

Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I honestly prefer Tear where I can. It's more offensive presence later and the shield is nice. I haven't played too much Lux. But my general goal with my build is: Seraph's/Morrello/Sorc Shoes/Luden's/Deathcap/Void Staff (not in any specific order) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brockze Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm...not too sure you need both a Seraph's and a morello's (too much mana/mana regen) turn one into a zhonya's for survivability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Morrello is for CDR. Seraph's is for mana/late game shieldness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar of Grima Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I quite like Morello's for more than the CDR it's a decent amount of ap for the price and the mana regen is nice. What I don't like about lux is the snare especially if she hits 6. Snare, E, Lazer and you die :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 ...Q>E>R is a terrible combo. I like E launch>Q>AA>E detonate>Ult>AA personally (assuming they're alive for the AA, which is unlikely) that way you get the slow off the E to help you land Q and maximum procs off her passive, the snare lasts just long enough for you to do the full combo too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Amethyst Posted March 25, 2015 Administrators Share Posted March 25, 2015 It's about time Lux got some love. Speaking of Lux though, I've been experimenting with building Luden's Echo over Deathcap early. Also debating whether Tear or Chalice is better for mana ATM, with the buffs to Athene's I'm leaning Chalice, unless I'm sure I can snowball the lane I'd strongly support Chalice over Tear in any matchup. Lux's cooldowns are long so you can't spam anything to charge tear. Plus, because of that she benefits a lot from having the CDR. Chalice is made for her. LeBlanc may be able to dodge skill shots, but Lux can be good against her because of her wave-clear. Shoving her in early will make the lane rough for LB; then it's just a matter of not over-extending when she can combo you. I haven't really played the last few patches but Luden's Echo is a movement speed item, right? Going that before Deatchap is probably a good idea because, firstly, Deathcap is often cautioned against as a first-big AP item buy since its passive is a multiplier. The item's value is higher when you have more AP later in the game. Secondly, Lux benefits greatly from movement speed for kiting and positioning. In fact her base movement speed was one of the things they nerfed on her previously to bring her down from top-tier. Therefore, Grail > Luden should be an ideal path.

Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Maybe it's just me, but I find Lux quite spammable, especially her E. Outside that I agree with just about everything you've said wholeheartedly, which is why I've been considering Grail>Luden's as my main build path in the first place owo And NasDav, if you're that scared of a bad combo, then you're definitely in trouble from a good one. If you'd like I can help you practice dodging her skillshots, that might assist you in defeating her EDIT: Oh, speaking of waveclear, how does one counter an opponent who shoves the lane early? I often struggle with that up top and it makes me miss a lot of CS because I have to try to push back to avoid being overrun (TL;DR, I faced a Vlad yesterday owo) Edited March 25, 2015 by KosherKitten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that if someone spams as much as Corki or Ezreal, and you're not those two, then you can get tear. I also prefer chalice over tear because of the mr. If you're up against an mr laner in mid or top, or the team is mostly mr, I find chalice to be best. If you're up against a Zed as Lux, it makes sense not to go Chalice because the mr is useless against him, so then tear may be a good choice then. I have no idea how to deal with waveclear either. Maybe if you're jungler ganks alot and kills the laner. Maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamitako Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Well, you're complaining about facing her. If she's a tough matchup you should be prepared, as unlikely as you may be to face her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anethia Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) The reason people say Q > E > R is Lux's main combo is because late game or at any stage you really don't WANT to be in range of auto attacking to proc your passive with it and you'll usually have enough damage to kill them with it anyway due to the ult proccing passive as well and because of Lux's high damage. To add to Teemo's lines; Runaan's: "Fighting fair is a good way to die." "There's no such thing as collateral damage." I just figured since you made one in the first place, might as well get everything under there. Edited March 25, 2015 by Anethia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanco Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 To add to Teemo's lines;Runaan's: "Fighting fair is a good way to die." "There's no such thing as collateral damage." I had those under "Attacking", so cheers. Fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
