Tips Against Lux as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

lol_cinema says “A good Lux can make engaging difficult. All you have to do is dodge her Q, and engage when that is down.”

Maximus_Not_Live says “Skill matchup. She outranges you, which is annoying, but she is immobile and squishy so landing W is pretty easy on her. After lvl 6, her burst is amplified a ton b/c of her ult. But if she is ever ulting in your ADC. just W & E her during her cast animation LOL. Countermeasures: - Avoid her Q root at all costs - Play around her CDs early, your Q CD is shorter than all of her abilities early. So if she whiffs her ability(s) then punish her. - You can out roam her - When she gets ult, get ready to W and E her during her Ult cast animation. She has to burn flash if she wants to dodge it.”
lol_cinema says “Her biggest tool is Q, but she doesn't do any damage to Galio. Its like using a house fan to slow down the train of freedom - not happening. ”

ShoDesu says “This match up is very annoying but its not as bad as others. You can never walk up to Lux to harass her because if she lands bind you will die/lose the trade. All you have to do is sit back and sustain her damage. If you go even in this lane, you will outscale her hard.”
Minima141 says “Lux can pressure lane through long-range poke and crowd control that makes engages more difficult for Rakan. Her Light Binding (Q) can root targets that attempt to engage too predictably, and Lucent Singularity (E) allows her to consistently chip away at your health before fights begin. Many Rakan players lose this lane by forcing engages while already low on health from repeated poke. The lane becomes easier once Light Binding (Q) is used or misses. Without her root available, Lux has fewer tools to stop your engage or protect herself during trades. This creates a short window where Rakan can threaten engages or pressure the lane. Because Lux relies heavily on landing Light Binding (Q) to control fights, spacing and patience are very important in this matchup. Avoid predictable engages and look for opportunities when her key ability is unavailable. • Engage after Lux uses Light Binding (Q).”
Gaylaxy says “Lux can make it difficult to walk up in lane due to her poke and crowd control. Focus on baiting her abilities and look to establish early lane priority, using W if needed to help maintain pressure.”

Joxuu says “Simple trading patterns with her E + Q. Lux wants to play aggressive and get an early lead in laning phase. Playing around your shields and respecting her E to go even in lane is very good for you.”

Zakke says “you have really high threat on her but if you go in with e and miss she retaliates really hard. forces you to buy defensive/mercs early.”
Nobreav says “ Dodging Lux's Q Lux's Q is a slow-moving projectile. Watch for Lux's Q cast animation and move left or right to dodge it, or hide behind minions to block the Q. Aggressive Engages After Level 6 After Level 6, you can ignore Lux's snare (Q) or slow (E) with your ultimate (R) and engage aggressively. After Lux uses her Q, boldly engage with a W-Q combo to look for a lethal setup.”

Tips Against Lux in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

twin7zz says “Respect the range of her abilities, try to scale and Q her E damage, never get hit by her Q. you eventually hard outscale her, but before that you are very easily punishable. after lv 6 just play for the wave, she has insane long range and if shes good she will never get close to you, you can jump onto her only if she wastes her Q. if she never throws her Q and you want to skill check her what you can do is, if she has only Q (E on CD) you can JUMP and insta click to either left or right making her cast her Q in your shadow.. then shes just dead.”
Soul0fghost says “Only hard if you can dodge the Q, Scale and she should lose lane.”
Viktor by Soul0fghost | Viktor Player
uramakyo says “Massive range advantage and her Q root sets up a full combo before you can respond. You need to get under her range to fight back but her E keeps you at bay. Hard lane.”

Gladiore says “...its lux...we are fizz...dodge her q and just kill her lol”
V222 says “Lv1 you should hold your level up and space aggressively. If she makes the mistake to E you, react with your E and dodge over it for a good trade. Otherwise you can just start Q. Lux is extremely broken early game especially if she can auto you to proc your passive so trading with her is extremely difficult. Lv2 you can try to bait her Q by EQ'ing and not commiting to the E2 to see if she will root you, but Lux will still trade pretty decently into you if she hit's her E on the ground, slows you and runs you down with autos. This is why it's usually only wise to trade with her when you have your W up. Whenever Lux tries to E you, you should dodge it with E reactively as it does a lot of damage. Try to avoid her passive autos at all cost. This matchup is all about having good movement and avoiding her poke until you can push and roam. Lux is extremely hard to punish before you have your first item even if she is extremely bad. Be careful about not getting stuck in lane as she can easily ult the wave so plan your recalls accordingly. Make sure to actually react to her spells and watch her animations as a lot of Lux players will try to predict your E. If you somehow get hit by her Q and you have your E2 up you can buffer the root with good timing, sometimes that is enough to avoid her R folow up. The longer the game goes the more you will outscale her and you completely demolish her in sidelane. In teamfights come from flanks to avoid her Q CC as getting hit by it when her teammates are around usually spells a death sentence due to how lethal her burst is”
V222 says “Grasp/ or Fleet is good into her, if u want to play aggressive run the Grasp setup, if u want to play safe run Fleet. Don't level up your E or Q yet, If she e's u or the minions u can E start, otherwise she most likely levleled up her Q so don't E start and play for lvl2, u pretty much outscale her, try to make the wave be on your side and u can run her down with ignite”

Mohini says “Gross damage and obnoxious poke range, but zero mobility. Stay on the move and predict her E range, and play for poke.”

ELODUNG says “Free matchup pro tebe, dodguj spelly, bež full burst a trestej jí za každý netrefený Q, lvl 6+ máš free hru. Nepodceň její bariéru a nenech se zbytečně AA od ní. oplácej trades. dávej svoje Q na její E (pokud tě hitne) a jsi OK. Runy: full burst start item: doran ring/dark seal”

AP Varus Mid Full Guide by VarusEnjoyer | Varus Player
BriarFeetLicker says “The Nasus vs Lux matchup is extremely easy for Nasus. Lux is a long-range poke mage, but her abilities are skillshot-based and relatively slow, making them easy to avoid with minion positioning. Early levels are comfortable; Nasus can safely farm Q stacks behind minions without taking significant poke. Wither can be used defensively if she tries to all-in, but she is generally not a threat to Nasus’s sustain. Once Lux hits level 6, her R (Final Spark) is dangerous only if she can land it perfectly, but Nasus’s tankiness and positioning make this very avoidable. As long as you play smart and respect her skillshots, you can freely scale and outlast Lux in lane trades.”
