Tips Against Lux as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
FlopQueenEra says “She ca poke you with her E, remember to side step and predict her E to survive. She is even more poker along with caitlyn”
Smaugyon says “very annoying in lane and can os you if you are not careful. she makes warding very dangerous and laning against her is not great since you wont be able to stack on her that well. ”
Cdevel says “Idk, you just can't play the game until 20 minutes. And at 25 minutes mark any bush can one-shot you. Typically, you go fleet, antimagic, Mercs and malmortus. And, perhaps, you'll see colours sometimes.”
zSharpFire says “Watch out big time for her Q. She usually will use E on your ADC, so you probably won't have to worry about it. Poke her only with R+Q or bait CDs, run at her and poke with Q. It's almost never a good idea to keep W tether if she has Q up. Unless you have a late game comp always go comet against her.”
Randomless says “Lux is a really problematic champion, the issue is not her damage nor cooldowns but it's the fact that she does not interact with the game. Impossible to punish in lane if the enemy player isn't dumb”
Arctic Arrow says “Avoid moving in straight lines to dodge her skill shots and ensure you can stun her effectively. Her ultimate (Final Spark) can be easily baited since you can absorb it with your E without much trouble.
As long as you stay aware of her cooldowns and position smartly, you can engage confidently and minimize her impact in lane.”
Gyathahaha says “Actually, all mage that has Immobilizing effect is annoying as they can land it while you are casting Q. But you can still crush them after you build up”
TnDD says “Lux, Bard'ın büyük ct'larından biri. Koridor aşamasını OYNAYAMAZSIN.
Yaptığı tek şey bu koridoru sana oynatamamak. Fakat ultini atınca da tek yiyen bir şampiyon. Bu da madalyonun arka yüzü. Bu sebeple erken oyunda olabildiğince safe durmaya çalış. Ormancınla oynamaya dikkat et.”
IMANOOBOKOWO says “Same thing as milio as long as you dont W in a straight line you will always be able to stun her and go all in.(You will also bait a lot of her ults if you have E because you can just tank it with no problem).”
Foxirion says “Lux’s range and crowd control can pose a significant threat to Nautilus. Her ability to bind Nautilus from a distance can make it difficult for him to engage.”
Foxirion says “Lux's long-range poke and crowd control can be a challenge for Rakan, but Rakan's mobility and engage potential can help him pressure Lux and disrupt her positioning in team fights.”
granmuh says “Banned this champ every game for the last 4 years. I refuse to play a game with her on the rift. Even looking at her picture while typing this makes me sick to my stomach.”
Velkyann says “Lux has very strong poke and burst, her Q is a kinda off a slow projectile but her E is basically impossible to dodge. Laning against Lux is very hard because her poke is much stronger than your heal and uses not even half as much mana, i recommend buying Helia first item for a stronger heal.”
MorePierogiVanya says “Frequent big AoE slowing poke and roots. Has mediocre shields and a strong ult. The worst part is the laning phase, afterwards she is bearable. Not as bad as Karma, but reckless engages will end badly”
Sinyora says “Lux can easily break Morgana's E) Black Shield with her E (She doesn't need to use her Q to break it, therefore she saves her stun to throw at our faces after she breaks the black shield with ease) and has long range and doesn't risk getting close with us making it harder to bind her.”
X Sirius X says “Almost impossible to lane against if you are not prepared because her pokes are deadly early-game and you can't walk up and Q because you might get caught by her root.”
Kcmichalson says “[SUP] Lux's Q roots the first two targets hit, so make sure to stand behind at least two minions if you want her root to be blocked.
Lux's E slows you for 1 second after leaving the circle, so try to stay out of it if you need mobility.”
NormalOstrich says “Annoying. Bait root by being to the side of minion wave, move in to bait bomb and immediately back off, press q then auto, now she is missing a third of her health and mana. ”
Nekuteru says “During laning phase she will be just annoying you to the point where u either play safe under turret or int going all in and dying. Try making ambushes for her.”
Your_ Local_Eldritch_Horr says “Gross cc. It hits two things. Also her circle and passive are annoying. So much damage. Not too hard if you can avoid her cc, though.”

quecck says “Good permaban pick if you're in low ELO. Lots of supports main her. Otherwise, if you have to play against her, buy MR. Her skills aren't impossible to dodge, and she doesn't have a mobile escape from you.”
FiletedMinion says “Her root is too easy to land since it goes through minions. She falls off the longer the game goes on. A single MR item and she is just annoying.”
Xintero says “[SKILL MATCHUP] We can all agree she can be stupid sometimes. This matchup is a matter on how good you are at side stepping. If you are new, then probably ban her since she's picked a lot more than others on this list. ”
JordyGSmiteq says “Due to Lux's limitation of her Qs only going through 1 target (hitting 2 max), she finds herself having to walk up if she ever wants to properly engage.
Tips: Be good at dodging, and play behind minions.”
Yashiao says “Mesma coisa da Nami, faz nada se tu fizer, sempre andando bastante pela lane e prestando atenção onde ela vai jogar o E e de olho no Q dela, sempre”
nyashaor says “She's Lux. She stuns, she does damage, she does splits, flips, backflips, she's a diva e.t.c.
As long as you're fast, you can outrun her Q and do damage, but, yeah. Take shield if you're not sure abt taking anything else.”
quecck says “Good permaban pick if you're in low ELO. Lots of supports main her.
Otherwise, buy mr. Her skills aren't impossible to dodge, and she doesn't have a mobile escape from you.”
Y2k2k says “Will you be outpoked yes, can u close the gap most definitely will rney be dead after or close to death ? Yes, dodge her abilities and run her down.”
Razing42 says “Lux is really strong and will make sure you know it if you give her the space. Don't get hit by her spells and try to punish her if she misses her Q.”
Aerenax says “Lux does a lot of damage, she will poke you down just like Karma. However, if you get on top of her, this will result in a kill as she has no mobility besides flash. You can block her Q with your E, but be careful you will get rooted!”
Ryecheria says “Typically mage supports have more range and better poke, but you could shield damages from abilities. Make sure to dodge crowd control abilities. If they miss abilities (especially crowd control abilities), look to punish or all-in.
60-40 matchup.
It is harder for Lux to land Q and shield her E. Your skill rotation outclasses Lux's.
Push in this lane matters a lot. ”
Maticz3007 says “Annoying poke, huge combo damage and extremely dangerous when ahead, but also immobile and can be poked and/or bursted down relatively easily. Whoever wins lane is going to oneshot their counterpart. Both builds are fine, Rylai is better.”
mazewalk says “Bait her skillshots and punish for wasting root. Her ultimates cast is long enough to react and use Solari to save your teammate. She will try to E you when you hide in bushes and since it gives vision - she will hold it as much as possible to zone you away. ”
Caganos says “Outranges you. This may not seem so bad but her E kills your bush-play and her Q will most likely hit you after you get some stacks. No need for ban though. ”
Shadowcrushers says “
Lux is considered a major match against Soraka due to several key factors. Lux's kit possesses a variety of abilities that directly counter Soraka's strengths and exploit her vulnerabilities, making her a formidable opponent in the bot lane.
Poke and Burst Damage: Lux excels at long-range poke and burst damage, which can heavily pressure Soraka in the laning phase. Lux's Q ability, Light Binding, can snare Soraka or her ADC, preventing Soraka from healing or applying her Astral Infusion effectively. Following up with her E ability, Lucent Singularity, Lux can deal significant damage and zone Soraka away from her ADC, denying her healing capabilities.
Range Advantage: Lux outranges Soraka in terms of both basic attacks and abilities. This range advantage allows Lux to harass Soraka from a safe distance, making it difficult for Soraka to land her own abilities or apply her heals effectively. Lux can utilize her range advantage to whittle down Soraka's health over time, forcing her to play more defensively and limiting her impact in team fights.
Shield and Crowd Control: Lux's W ability, Prismatic Barrier, provides a shield to herself and her teammates, reducing incoming damage. This shield can negate Soraka's poke damage and neutralize her Starcall ability's effectiveness. Additionally, Lux's ultimate ability, Final Spark, not only deals massive burst damage but also provides a significant crowd control effect. This can interrupt Soraka's healing and silence her, rendering her unable to utilize her Wish ultimate effectively in critical team fights.
Vision Control: Lux's E ability, Lucent Singularity, acts as a versatile zoning and vision control tool. By placing Lucent Singularity in key areas, Lux can deny Soraka and her team vital vision, limiting Soraka's ability to land accurate skillshots or provide healing support from a safe distance. This denies Soraka the opportunity to apply her global presence effectively and reduces her overall impact on the map.
Team Fight Impact: Lux's long-range poke, burst damage, and crowd control make her a potent threat in team fights, which can directly counter Soraka's healing and utility. Lux's abilities can effectively burst down Soraka or her ADC, making it difficult for Soraka to provide effective heals or utilize her Wish ultimate to turn the tide of battle. Additionally, Lux's crowd control abilities can disable Soraka and disrupt her healing capabilities, further reducing her impact on team fights.
Overall, Lux's poke, burst damage, range advantage, shield, crowd control, and vision control abilities make her a major match against Soraka. By exploiting Soraka's vulnerabilities and limiting her healing and utility, Lux can exert significant pressure in the laning phase, neutralize Soraka's impact in team fights, and create opportunities for her team to secure victories.”
Apos says “I usually win the lane but somehow I have a 44% win rate against her. I think she is good at picking up carries. Or perhaps she scales better than Sion.”
Rebaulten says “This is a skill match up. Look to get lane pressure and win through prio early levels. If she misses any abilities thats your go button”
support_diff says “Lux is the most broken support in the game, her damage and cc is just too good and her skillshots are way too easy to land. You can't do pretty much anything against her, buy boots early”
jmp_01_ says “Most people in lower elo's don't know how to play Lux Support so this match-up is quite easy for you. Once you bait her Q it's a free kill (or flash).
Try avoiding getting poked by her undodgeable ability. :D
Take Glacial Augment.”
support_diff says “Lux is way too easy and way too good right now, try not to get hit by her Q pre-6 and you should be fine. If he is trying to combo you down, just use your E and prevent her from dealing any damage to you”
Lunar Empress says “Your passive on Zephyr (W) gives you enough movement speed to avoid her spells. If you get caught, she can ult you and you die. However, in the same context, she gets caught very easily and has no escape. Glacial works best here.”
mazewalk says “"gl hf" by a Lux player is the most cynic thing you can see in your life.
Try to bait her skills and stand behind at least 2 minions.
Q's cd is always 11.”
Afnyc says “Tricky because of her range, but because she's so mana hungry early it's winnable. Dodge as much as you can, rush merc threads. Play with the jungler. She has little tools for disengage so ganks can be effectively set up, and roaming with the jungler can forces her off lane or into an all-in, both of which are hard for her. ”
Bolybuff says “I dont think you can block her double snare with your E. Otherwise you are at risk of doing lux a favor by jumping to your ally while she throws her binding Q. Her ult passes through your E. You can still potentially block her rest of her abilties though. ”
RobinValentine1 says “She outranges you pretty hard and is especially threatening when paired with a high range ADC . However, as long as you dodge binding you can out poke her due to her cooldowns being 5 seconds longer than yours”
support_diff says “Lux is way too good and way too overpowered right now, try to dodge her root and you should be fine... or not. She is immobile, so you can poke her pretty easily”
support_diff says “Lux's damage is really high, and she is way too easy to play. Watch out for her root, as you could possibly die after a succesful one. Poke her from as far as you can so it's hard to her to hit her abilities on you. ”
Lurs says “Punish her when her root is down and take guardian to not get poked down. You can play with your mobility, and look to roam. This is a very standard Rakan matchup.”
ShacoSupportAP says “I personally hate to play against her. I think she counters you pretty hard and you cant really engage on her (she just will q you). She can also zone your adc. She is immobile and squishy tho.”
itstsuk3 says “Take Aftershock, Second Wind with Cookies if you dont think you can win Vs her. If you are confident in yourself take Glacial, Second Wind. Play around her cooldowns, Punish her for Bad Positioning and Protect your ADC if they get caught in her Q. If she has a Jhin ADC she's way harder to go against.”
itstsuk3 says “Bullies the shit out of you early game, don't get caught by Q.
If not ahead you can bully instead but she gets strong with a single item so watch out and have a teammate with you.”
Aydov says “Try not to get hit by her Q to not get hit by her all combo. If she misses her E and Q, try to engage before she gets them back. Early refillable potion is necessary.”
Dotje says “I have mixed feelings about how strong AP supports are. You get caught you die. But in the late game you always have a good chance to come back. Their skill shots are easier to dodge and you can almost always out heal her damage once you get some items. Just don't let her get fed, then she won't be too strong.”
Aerenax says “Lux does a lot of damage, she will poke you down just like Karma. However, if you get on top of her, this will result in a kill as she has no mobility besides flash.”
Wounds2 says “Can stop you with her slow from E and root from Q. She can be punished if she wastes Q. Over the course of the game, you become more valuable as long as your team isn't getting picked by Lux on cooldown.”
granmuh says “I've banned this champion every game for the past 3 years. I don't care what champion I pick as support, I ban Lux.
In all honesty, Lux is not that great of a threat against Akali. I simply have a genuine hatred for Lux and refuse to play a game with her on the rift.
”
Cyclic says “Similar to Karma. Second wind and Senna base HP health nerfs made this matchup more difficult to play since one snare and you will die while her E will do a significant chunk of your health on a relatively low cooldown. Try to take advantage and play aggressive once she wastes key cooldowns like her Q and if you can't then just play to poke with Q and outscale in lane”
ZharMeny says “Same as Brand, but she is just more annoying, also don't forget to punish her when she goes in AA range to proc her passive with(at least) your Q. Recommended Stance: Mounted”
Prenora says “Lux is similar to vel'koz she constantly slings spells but just wait for her to make a mistake and once you get on her, she's too immobile to get you off”
Toches says “If she's paired with caitlyn/jhin and is hitting her stuff, she's a pain in the neck.
Otherwise, mid-late game just exhaust her after she hits a Q, because E/R are following, and she telegraphs that animation pretty well, she doesn't get enough juice to fully poke you out early, so just try to not have both you and the adc get hit by her Es.
her Q animation has a sideswipe telegraph, shouldn't be too bad to learn to dodge
really susceptible to e/flash, low mobility.”
iveye says “Lux is a very immobile mage similar to Xerath, she can poke you out of lane if you play overly safe and if you dodge her Q she becomes one of the easiest targets to kill probably in all of the champion roaster as she has no way to stop you with out defensive items like Zhonya's. Lux is also the most played support so you should make sure you understand her and the match up as it will be a common one until gold+.”
mellorwastaken says “Unless she is playing with Cait, should be an easy matchup, especially in low elo where she will randomly try to hit Q and you can just walk up in her face and Q-E backwards.”
Yoshiking123 says “A good Lux will make it hard for you to engage while poking you down. Thankfully, she's immobile and we can kill her and/or her ADC easily. What I recommend is pretending to be a little bitch in the back trying to avoid poke. Your goal is to bait her into using her Q and the INSTANT she throws out Q you should Flash stun her and kill with your ADC.”
PullTrick says “Lux can be pretty annoying since she heavily outranges you and can root you during your E. If the lux is wasting her abilities you can look for more points in E to punish her but otherwise I would just max Q. Wit's End and cleanse are useful here.”
DARKSTARR says “She's able to use her root to put your W on cooldown for 5 seconds, leaving you very vulnerable. Her other abilities used in a combo during this 5-second period, is deadly.”
veeixin says “I've never had a major or terrible problem ever with a Lux.
She can be very annoying with her Q and she can scare you out of a brush with an E, but she's squishy enough to where you can quickly W-E and bring her below half.
Don't be scared against her, dodge Q and you're good to go.”
Sorakas says “Runes: Aery/Guardian
Lux has strong lane pressure and dangerous crowd control abilities that can easily put Soraka at a disadvantage. Your main role in this matchup is to dodge all of Lux's abilities, as getting caught will cause you to lose lane control. Only use your Q on her or the enemy ADC after she has already used her E, ensuring you aren’t left vulnerable. If Lux targets you, the game becomes more challenging, as Soraka’s health is crucial for healing the ADC.
Items like Mikael’s Blessing and Chemtech Putrifier are good options in this matchup, especially if Lux builds Oblivion Orb for Grievous Wounds”
Igirl45 says “Lux can root, shield and sometimes 1 shot you if you try to engage on her. If you get caught in her snare, make sure to e to your adc after because if she hits you with a full combo she can kill you. She can poke you down with her e while also slowing you. Late game she might one shot you, so make sure to build some mr into lux.”
Fenreee says “|||SUPPORT||| Lux is just a bad support champion in my opinion. You rush Swifties if she's good, and if she's not then you can get away with Lucidity even. Janna always runs Heal and ADC takes exhaust in this lane and that results in Lux not having kill pressure unless you play it seriously wrong. Lux is mostly good for denying bush control in lane and punishing melee supports, but she has no real pressure in a Janna lane aside from lackluster poke. This means she doesn't get to pop off and snowball her damage, meaning she will play a burst mage with a support gold income and end up not having any burst. You should win this matchup off the fact that you're faster at rotating around the map, warding and ganking, aswell as the fact that your Glacial Q funnily enough has more kill pressure on her, than her combo on you due to Glacial reducing her burst and her being more squishy than you for some reason. If you have a decently strong ADC early then you can even run ignite and dance her skills and make her suffer with Swifties. ”
Roltu says “Zonea, Bloquea, pero de ahí sigue siendo una peor morgana y en realidad a menos que este fedeada, una lux como enemiga no es nada contra un thresh.”
Ekko Rush B Guides says “Lux is annoying, but not a hard matchup. She is really squishy and has no mobility at all, so that gives you free W's. The only thing you have to worry about is her Q, because then she has the potential to one-shot you without you being able to ult. Buy a corruption potion early on to deal with her poke.”
PR0M3T3O says “Get magic resistance
You can do it the best, stomp her and leaving her behind, then, lvl 6, the only thing she needs to start getting kills and ruining your game”
L9NunuChillump says “Lux is hard to play against for Nunu due to the easy poke and root going through minions she isn't totally ban worthy but proceed with caution while playing this lane and try to bait spells as best you can”
Uzonna says “I'm using Lux, but this goes for every support mage.
This matchup sucks. You get out poked when running this build and it's hard to step up for combo without being CCed and bursted out. When against a mage, I would play safe, wait for jungle if possible, and otherwise just scale.”
unhben says “If Lux decides to max E, she can very easily clear your turrets. Keep her busy and max them so they gain health quick and stay alive longer. Matchup is even from there. Poke with E and W often once manaflow is stacked if taken. ”
Melyn says “It's important to play up with your ADC so they don't get zoned by her spells (which outrange yours). Especially when she hits 6, there's a lot of one shot potential so you may wish to flash if a Q is going to land.
Don't get baited by her W shield, it can shield a lot.”
Atemporal says “Tenha cuidado com o nível 1 de Lux porque seu E + auto + Comet causará muito dano a você. Fique fora do alcance de ataque automático dela e você estará bem. Os jogadores de Lux geralmente não passarão do nível 1 de seus lacaios para enquanto você ficar para trás, ela não pode
realmente te cutucar. Quando você atinge o nível 2, você não quer pular nela, a menos que ela desperdice tanto Q e E por algum motivo. O Q CD de Lux é de 11 segundos, então mesmo que você troque com ela e force seu Q, ele basicamente estará de novo na próxima vez que você
combo ela. Não tenha medo de usar seu E para desviar do E dela, e sempre use E para desviar do Q dela se estiver prestes a acertar você. Lux é um campeão que você não deveria ser capaz de matar no início do jogo. Atordoá-la com um W é difícil porque ela vai te dar um Q
enquanto você está se movendo em direção ao seu W, e o escudo dela absorverá muito do seu dano. Concentre-se em empurrar as ondas, Lux luta com a agricultura sob a torre e você geralmente obterá uma liderança decente na fazenda apenas por afk empurrando-a constantemente. É também
super arriscado para Lux seguir seus roams, porque você pode estar se escondendo em um arbusto esperando por ela. Quando você sair da pista após um empurrão, preste atenção em como ela reage. Se ela correr cegamente para a selva para tentar segui-lo, mantenha isso
em mente para a próxima vez que você empurrar a onda e sair da pista. Você pode apenas conseguir uma morte grátis se ela se deparar com seu W. Lux lutará contra você se ela tiver que combiná-lo em uma pista lateral. Fazer um teamfighting normal contra ela é arriscado e
não é o ideal porque o Q dela pode atrapalhar você em lutas de equipe e seu escudo W é irritante ao tentar matar a linha de fundo. Jogue pista lateral,
e então teamfight flanqueando e conseguindo bons ângulos no time inimigo. Considere Merc Threads contra ela.
”
Sellorio says “Lux outclasses most supports in the game with her high-damage, spammable, long range abilities. It's why I like playing her so much but it's also a pain in the ass cause even if you ignore her ludicrous poke, she also has a CC and is guaranteed to end you if she lands a Q mid-late game (or early if she gets ahead).”
NotAragami says “Very VERY annoying to deal with. She outtrades you, has better range and can shield both herself and her ADC twice. Lux support mains are pests and there's everywhere in SEA servers, ban worthy. ”
OakuMarai says “Good poke, annoying burst. Don't facecheck crap and ward well. Aery or Elec with celerity. Don't stand too close to your ADC or you'll both get hit by her spells.”
huirats says “Poke mages are annoying, at the very least you'd get even trades, but they'll probably win trades. If you get hit by her stun after lvl 6 you're dead.”
Twday says “this is really just hit or miss. you either get a bad lux which you can destroy easily, or a decent lux with a brain which will screw you up as much as morgana”
BIG BRAIN MAN says “When you shunpo onto her, instantly W and walk to the side to dodge her snare in melee range. If you can get a lead by killing her or using teleport somewhere, then you will be in a great spot. ”
DixonTheGuideMaker says “Always make sure you’re stood behind at least 2 minions so she is unable to root you with her Light Binding(Q). If Lux uses her Q and it misses, use the cooldown of this ability to play aggressive as she will be unable to protect herself and prevent the all-in. Mitigate Lux’s E effectiveness by standing behind and not inside the minion wave. This will make her choose between using her Lucent Singularity(E) to poke with or to push with.”

M4DN355 says “As long as you are able to dodge her Q effectively, then fighting her is a breeze, although laning phase against her is difficult due to her high damage poke and shields for both her and her ADC. Later game, she's an easy kill as long as you dodge her Q.”
Mr Jamba Juice says “DShard: MR; Becomes an Even Matchup after some experience. Glacial Augment makes it harder for her to escape you after she uses her spells. She has every possible tool she needs to make his Laning Phase hell. However, if you play your cards right, this lane is playable. A good Lux (mind the irony here) will have Total Bush Control, so play outside the Bushes at all times. Play Parallel to your ADC so you don't get 2-Man Rooted or Ulted. Your Stun does not, I repeat, NOT, cancel her Ult Channel. Try to go around it. If you can't, shield some of the Damage with W, then Q yourself and ADC to regain the lost Health. Your level 1 is stronger than hers if she plays too aggressive, which a bad Lux will certainly do, and will Overstep, allowing you to hit a free Stun off on her, or at least blow her Flash. Buy Swifties if possible to have more Movement Speed available to dodge her Q (and in turn shake off some of her E slow), or if you have trouble Side-Stepping, get Merc Treads early to shun off some of the Root Length. Take Unflinching instead of Revitalize into her, as well as Legend: Tenacity. Your Recovery Tools are already much stronger than hers as it is.”
Jageiko says “Lux is feared by a lot of Supports. Let me tell you: Not by Poppy. She is one of the squishiest champs in the game (Sona Lux Zyra) all in her as soon as you see her and snowball. Just have to focus on dodging the Q or baiting it.”
babyyspace says “Lux root can be a pretty bad threat due to it hitting the first two targets meaning you have to stand behind two minions not just one.”
RoseOfInnistrad says “Lux does a lot of damage, does it from a screen away, does it while shielding her allies, and does it while rooting you and slowing you with an unmissable ability.”
Slept god says “Lux has good poke and her q bind can stop your engage with that being said without her q she can't stop you of you have Swiftys with the slow resists ”
MorBidMike says “i dont like it, but it exist. get that mikaels and stay on your toes. don't play dismounted and instead just stay mounted and rely on dodging.”
Bazekda says “You get hit by one root and there goes half your HP. You can't outrange her ever, try to get cheeky portals on her with your jugnler, mid laner or ADC”
Navn says “If you get binded, you're doomed. And since it passes through minions, its a really bad time. She's got a ton of range so landing Q is also going to be really hard to even get some hp back from her poke.”
PrismaticShield says “She outranges you in a frustrating way, but you can outplay her if you and your adc dive her early and build up faster than her. Banshee's Veil is a must against a strong Lux.”
Navn says “Her poke is just as good as yours, so this lane is entirely dependent on who is pushing. The person pushing the lane will win this match-up, but she is a pretty easy arrow target later.”
spirit legacy says “It seems like a very annoying lane to deal with, but you can easily bait most lux player's abilitys by moving alot. try to bait her spells and as soon as she misses her q she's very open for an hard engage. She only wins the lane if she constistantly hits her E. ”
Challenger Project says “Abuse early levels. The problem with all enchanters is all the same - if we don’t snowball early hard, we fall off and get outscaled.”
Maxwell_Shaco says “Early game can be a bit rough since her poke can be painful and her root deadly.
Just be careful of her root, help your ADC farm up and in the mid to late game you can abuse her immobility to bully her with traps and shiv.”
anniesniffer69 says “stupid ugly femsub... if you dodge her Q and E try to spank her to death. after level 6 be more careful cuz she spams her ult whenever she wants.”
rocco521 says “The only scary thing with lux is if they also have a caitlyn. If you get poked out too low its really hard for you to play the game. Try to just dodge her spells and live lane. But if you get onto her she will die if you have help.”
Brizz Valentine1 says “Difficult line in my experience
You can play with aery to try to trade with her or you can play with guardian and runes to hold lane and be useful later
His poke is quite annoying online he has more range than you But he is immobile and you can try to answer his poke, ask your jungler for help here and at low level he has a 10 second cooldown and your w has more than 20 seconds. Max Q to poke or E to wait for jungle help”
Demonsedge90 says “Facing a Lux is a relatively easy matchup for Leona, but if you get caught too much by her light binding, then you will not able to do much in fights.”
Cordiall says “Lux isn't much of a threat to Braum, though if she gets ahead she can definitely do damage. Her E slow followed by her Q root isn't easy to dodge, but if you stay close to minions you can W away from it to dodge it. You can also take advantage of the knowledge that her root is down to all-in and kill her, if your ADC is on the same page as you.”
ARealFakeIdentity says “As she out-ranges and out-damages you, Lux poses quite a problem, use bushes to avoid skillshots and rely on playing far enough back that you will not easily get hit.”
hampenguin says “Easily the most annoying champ to lane against, she'll do 30% HP with one E so you need to wait until 3 because you need your entire kit to kill her or survive.”
TheKingUltra says “Has only one damage combo, which is easy to predict, she also has very poor mobility, you can get a few kills and also outroam her very hard.”
LilPaniniUwU says “Take Barrier. Lux's Poke makes it hard for you to harass her while playing in the wave and her bind makes it sketchy to play outside the wave. Try to not get caught and scale. If you find a bubble you can score kills.
”
Eu como Miilena says “fique longe de seu adc para que ela tenha que escolher 1 dos 2 para jogar seu E e quando ela escolher proteja o escolhido com o seu E nos sem itens ela nao tem dano suficiente para quebrar o escudo da Karma. se ela acertar o Q sempre espere para dar o escudo quando ela ultar caso contrario a ult dela mata a pessoas estunada.”
PrismaticShield says “If you're really good at moving around without being hit, you can counter her easily, but early game she is such a pain for pyke players.”
Ionia King says “If you can dodge her Q she is of no threat to you, she is extremely squishy and once you jump on her she's most likely going to die to your team before she can cast anything.”
DtNikk says “Lux outranges you, by alot. Go boots of swiftness, as getting hit by her Q spells certain doom. Mikales is also very good. Relic shield is by far better then spelthieves in this matchup.”
ColJaraka says “Dodge her q with w, and you should be fine. She can get a lot of damage even when behind during late game, so don't get caught and don't underestimate them.”
tygame88 says “Lux is my usual insta-ban. Hyperbeam is OP and she has way to much range. Poke champs are hard for Swain when they can outrange him. Her root is so easy to hit Swain with.”
AvengingAvacyn says “Lux is really annoying because her ranged crowd control and ultimate counter you. You need to get in their face but they are good at staying away from you.”
VyoS says “She'll poke you in the early game, so play passive and wait lvl 6, it's okey to lose some CS, When you got your Ult W E her and wait for her reaction, if she Q's then you can dodge it by swapping with your Shadow, after that you can all in her. If you're a bit fed you just can WEQ in a good angle and Ult her after swapping.”
TheFoolhardy says “Like morgana, her Q is enough to cancel your whole engage and she's most likely to keep poking you with E, even if the ADC does bad, she still has massive carry potential.”
Nozul says “Lux dá muito poke, só isso mesmo. É difícil de se esquivar do E dela que também te dá slow. Se você for pego no Q dela, você vai ser combado (e solado por ela, no lategame). Acho que nem preciso falar das toneladas de dano que ela te dá com poucos itens fechados, certo?”
TheBlueImperial says “Lux is an annoying support to play against because of her poke but she is still very squishy immobile, she cannot do anything to stop you from engaging on her. If she lands a Q on your carry stand between her and your carry to prevent her from following up early.”
PumpkinMatters says “Lux é uma Morgana mais fácil de lidar, mas não se engane com esse rostinho bonito da loira odonto, porque ela pode acabar com seu jogo se acertar todo o combo. De qualquer forma, é aquele mesmo papo: fuja do Q, principalmente, e caia com tudo nessa demaciana insuportável pra acabar com a alegria dela”
xDracolich says “Lux is one of Rell's biggest threats with her high AP damage, her root, and her constant ult looming over your head. Pray you're not playing against a Lux support.”
PumpkinMatters says “Lux is an easier Morgana, but don't let this cute little Beverly Hills white face fool you, because she can end your game, if she gets her combo right. Anyway, it's that same thing: escape Q, principally, and fall hard onto this annoying demacian head to end her happiness”
commit lego foot says “long range poke mage with a lot of burst. you are on a timer to engage before you get poked out. early refill and kindlegem give you some breathing room with second wind but still hard. ”
a8qoyrl says “Pain, pain, pain and more pain. She has amazing poke potential and does a lot of damage at the same time. A lot of the time if you are walking up, she will just root you and burst you before you can get in range to proc E and Glacial. You can really only try to engage when its on cooldown(11 second base CD all levels). Like Xerath, just make sure she doesnt poke you and Poppy to the point that its just dangerous to engage. So look for those windows of opportunity when her Q is on CD.”
KalelPeique says “Jogar contra Lux é um saco, evita tomar os Q , e tenta esquivar dos E, como ela é mago de longa a distancia, é quase impossível você chegar perto dela, então tenta pegar ela de surpresa, aliás você é um assassino
_________________________________________
Playing against Lux sucks, avoid taking the Qs, and try to dodge the E, as she's a long-distance mage, it's almost impossible for you to get close to her, so try to catch her by surprise, in fact you're an assassin”
navarro41yt says “She has an absurd root with her Q so if the spell hits yi he will be unable to move in various seconds.
It his highly recomended to go Flash vs she.”
Alks says “If she has the best aim, this could be a problem, however since we are fast, it usually doesn't seem that big of a threat. just poke her down!”
TheAngryJacket says “Boots early on help to avoid lux e, dont clump with your adc and give them a chance to hit you both, as long as you dodge the root you should be able to dance circles around her.”
DrErebos says “She can heavy poke you out and will insta kill you post 6 if she hits a root. This is advice for all root type supports. If you vault them when they don't expect it then instantly side step you have a good chance of dodging their root.”
Winter Nicole says “Lux: Her Q traps you and her E does so much damage late game and when she gets her Ult, it's hard to protect your adc when she stuns them. (Recommend playing it safe with your adc and try not feeding her and try not feeding their adc which can be double the trouble though you can do good damage on her, make sure to stun her and Ult her so you can kill her let your adc kill her or you leaving their adc in a 2v1 and your'll have tower control but be careful with their jungler)”
M Le Maudit says “Pretty annoying with her cage but if you bait her cage you can use predator on the adc and you will win anyways, try to not let her poke you.”
itsElJefe says “Lux can be a pest, she is very easy to play and do well on, she has high damage when shes doing well, and a low ult cooldown. But you are a Xerath, you have better range and she's squishy. Avoid her stuns and play to your max range. Starting to see a trend?? STAY BACK AND POKE!! ”
revu says “[POKE MAGE]
Luxes are usually clueless. They randomly throw away their skills hoping to hit something. Look for all-in if she misses her Q. Her real power comes from how fast she can clear waves, pushing you under tower, which you dont normally want to happen.”
Discord231 says “Con esta tipa deberás comer daño de gratis para proteger a tu adc de su pokeo, pero con cuidado de no comerte su cc, y si no la matas antes de hacer un objetivo, prepárate para que lo robe.”
GuanaTv says “Apesar de inicialmente ser um pouco chato enfrentar uma Lux, o fato dela nao conseguir proteger muito bem seu aliado faz com que seja uma rota tranquila.
(Although it is initially a bit boring to face a Lux, the fact that it can't protect its ally very well makes it a smooth lane).”
beeinthefranxx says “After her buffs shes literally like the teemo of botlane, besides blitzcrank and darius. take advantage of her after you dodge her q, shes immobile and has no cc other than e slow.”
Stannis_The_Mannis says “Annoying, low damage early levels, slow abilities, if she E you, just walk toward her as the ability will fly pass you if there's no minion around, her Q is slow and predictable so dodge or don't walk into it. When she miss both her E and Q punish her hard as she has no way to stop you.”
Gobomo says “Dodge her Qs and you're fine, get hit by them and you lose, thats the nature of the matchup. Unlike Morgana, however, there's no spell shield to prevent you from punishing her for missing her Q. ”
Petra Venj says “You really need to hit the Q's in this matchup, as Lux can poke really hard. I suggest going barrier to live her burst and going second wind.”
MsBean says “Being against a lux isn't too bad, it can be a little big tricky if you get caught as she easily...one shots you... with her stun, E, and ult, she does a lot of damage, but it's not impossible to dodge her, just be behind minions, and don't chase her too much, she does a lot more damage compared to you. Overall soraka is a better support because of her healing, you give your adc kills and get assists back, as for lux you risk taking kills.”
neuroplasticity says “While she outranges you and has a lot of poke Lux isn't really difficult to deal with. Your passive helps to dodge her rather telegraphed skillshots and your W counteracts her poke.
Just make sure you dodge her binding and be wary of brush cheeses in lane as well as later on. ”
Mooncurve says “dodge her skills, make that your priority. If Q / E is down you can fight her. She does often go ap as a support, buy mikaels to counter her binding.”
yaemitskiuwu says “The recent Lux buffs made her an Even threat for Lulu. Her E deals so much damage and this is why I suggest maxing your E against AP supports like her. Dodge her skills you'll be fine. IF she gets fed make sure to get defense items.”
eiensiei says “Build Mercury's Treads and you'll always be able to dodge her R even if she hits her Q. Her E is fairly easy to dodge if you walk forward or to the side, but not backwards.”
Doglightning says “Run ele. She is annoying she can out range your poke and root plus can shield your poke. Only advantage you have is you can root through wave. At 6 if she catches you in a root you are dead unless you have aftershock. After lane she will just have an easier time then you finding picks as she has longer range on bind”
Mystral says “I think that this is a skill matchup, I just saved my ADCs by giving them speed to avoid her poke. She is squishy, if you get close enough, you can take half of her life away. Poke her only when she has her skills on CD.”
PicklePantsLOL says “Don’t get poked out by her E on a regular basis as the damage will build up over time and the slow will allow her to proc her Passive on you. This will ultimately force you to recall abruptly.
Lux’s Q is the ability you need to play around as getting CC’d by that will surely result in your demise post-six. That CC paired with her E slow will literally spell death for you so make sure that you sidestep it.
You will want to allow Lux to push the wave in with her ADC so that she is exposed to ganks. Before a gank, make sure you bait out her Q so that she has no way to escape once the gank begins.
During team fights, she will try to dish out damage with her E and see if she can catch anyone with her Q. Try to avoid her Q at all costs and don’t stay too close to each other or she will be able to poke all of you with a single spell.”
Doglightning says “Take Barrier. Lux's Poke makes it hard for you to harass her while playing in the wave and her bind makes it sketchy to play outside the wave. Try to not get caught and scale. If you find a bubble you can score kills.”
Aerenax says “Lux is not as annoying as the other mages in the botlane as she is easy to play around if she misses her Q. The only problem is when you get hit by her full combo and your HP bar is deleted.”
eiensiei says “Build Mercury's Treads and you'll always be able to dodge her R even if she hits her Q. Her E is fairly easy to dodge if you walk forward or to the side, but not backwards.”
warmfishu says “Her Light Binding (Q) will reset your W. She is also pretty high damage. How well she does varies wildly by player since she is both a high elo main and a newbie champion though.”
Rasta Da Masta says “This matchup is hard for 3 reasons: 1, she has as much range as you. 2, she can actually 100-0 you and your partner with a full combo. 3, until you finish boots dodging is hard. Better bring your happy feed & hope for ganks!”
LegendaryOstrich says “You can take biscuits against Lux if you feel she pokes you down a lot but early game she should not have any pressure to kill you since she deals no damage early. Look to fight once she uses her Q or W.”
Korippo says “She does an insane amount of damage with her ult and her E poke mid to late game though, so it's important to keep your ADC as healthy as possible in the event they get rooted. It's ideally best to focus her first in the lane because while she is meant to setup, she also dishes out arguably more damage than her ADC in less time, so get rid of her before engaging on them.”
TheImmortalEye says “her higher range makes her poke effective. similar to seraphine u are a bit disadvantaged here with a similar kit. her ult does high dmg but dmg only, respect but all in when possible.”
Flackojodye says “be careful with her binding, it has a deceptively long range, and most of the times she will try to full combo whoever she hits with it. Try to orb walk around her so she is more likely to miss Q and E. Respect her range and dont get pushed in or you will be dove and sieged.”
Distinger says “I personally cannot play against this monstrosity.
No matter how many abilities you dodge, if she lands a single Q on you, you are dead no matter what, because Lux's damage is broken even when she's behind.”
0Banda says “ Lux, as a skillshot champion can get easily countered by Rakan, you can dodge her spells once you buy your first Boots and before that you can dodge her spells with your own ability's, like your W and E if your ADC is close to you. You can also dodge Lux's R easily
In your first back, buy Boots in order to dodge her skillshots, you can run Second Wind if you feel uncomfortale against Lux but its not really necessary, in teamfights, get close to her and bait her spells, then dodging with your W”
Xexzuz says “I'll just put this here. Any champ with CC you will do very well against for the most part. So just remember to time your E right and you can win trades really easily. ”
Luiscencias says “Just like Zyra, she is a damage bot who you must respect until level 6. DODGE THAT Q and you will be just fine but don't ever forget she can get you killed with that one button. Zhonyas is incredibly good at countering her burst since most lux's will faceroll their abilities as soon as they bind you”
AlysseaFaceUp says “This is one of the exceptions, this support has more range than Zyra, but, you'll have to max your Q, she's so squishy, so dealing burst damage is the best way of killing her.”
Fear The Jester says “Dodge her root with Q, or eat it and displace with Q to make them waste mana using E on where you were, gain control of the bushes and see if theyll waste mana to illuminate the bushes with spells (most are braindead mid mains that cant support properly), easy engage if you can dodge her root with your ult, Can also use your ult to dodge hers.”
Cimcia484 says “ In the laning phase she pokes Soraka without giving her opportunity to Q her and mitigate the poke with healing. Similar problems with champions like Xerath or Brand. If they missplay and get hit by your Q, the lane changes entirely.”
Jowoey says “A good Lux will never randomly throw her Q but instead hold it for pressure and focus on poking you down with her E. She's supposed to start Q, but if she doesn't you can utilize that and poke her level 1. Wait until she throws an ability to find out. Early vision of the middle lane bush will make playing against good Lux players a little less intimidating but always be weary of her Q.”
Hanjaro says “Lux's full combo can spell death for you, especially if your ult is on CD and you can't reach her for an equinox. Dodge her spells, play to stay alive and scale.”
CatGopher98 says “Lux is a very similar threat to Brand, except that it comes with a lot more CC. Her cooldowns will eventually become nonexistent, including her ult's. Luckily, the same goes with your abilities.”
Hanjaro says “Lux can counter your engage with her root, and her combo is deadly, along with her long range. You should avoid her abilities, play passive and engage at 6 when her abilities are on CD. She's squishy so you can burst her down.”
Biotic says “Very easy to play farm level 3 and you can just E into double bomb and you should win 2v2. Be carefull that you dont get caught out by a binding you should be the one engaging. ”
TheBestestBork says “Lux is lux, she roots you and pokes you all lane so dodge that and you will be fine. Also, as a standard leo main must, KILL HER WITH FIRE”
cozymoonzz says “try to dodge her q and you should be fine, you can go guardian for the extra protection, but you outsustain her and outscale her if she doesnt get fed. ”
KasgoesREEEEE says “her q, e, r combo kills you everytime. don't rely on minions to avoid her q bc it can hit 2 enemy units. try to bait it out and then she's not too much help.”
LIGHTBULB NA says “Similar to morgana, she is not really a problem unless she hits a Q. If she ever walks in E range, you should be able to hopefully burn flash or kill her”
Guoblide says “Lux is a pretty hard matchup for Braum due to her poke being able to force Braum and his ADC out of lane fairly easily. Lux is a long-range burst Mage that can be built as a hybrid enchanter. She can run many different runes and builds that can change her playstyle for each one. For example, an Arcane Comet Lux will most likely build Luden's Tempest into full AP and focus on poking Braum whereas a Guardian Lux will build Imperial Mandate/ Moonstone Renewer into full enchanter and focus on peeling and keeping her teamates alive. Try to adjust your playstyle to counter theirs. Lux spikes at Level 2 with access to a root with Light Binding, Level 6 with access to a long range Final Spark beam, and then at Levels 11 and 16 where the cooldown to Final Spark gets ridiculously low. In lane Braum should try to play around bushes at Level 1 to help him dodge Lucent Singularity. Try to bait it out and then play super aggressively with your ADC for the 10 seconds where it is on cooldown. Lux without cooldowns is pretty much a glorified caster minion due to most of her damage and items stemming off of her abilities. Once Braum hits Level 2 he can play more aggressively and block Light Binding and Lucent Singularity with Unbreakable if they are cast on him. Keep in mind that Light Binding will still root Braum even if blocked (Although the damage will be reduced) and Lucent Singularity will deal full damage if activated before it hits Braum's Shield. Braum should continue playing around Lux's cooldown throughout the laning phase. Try to shove the wave into the enemies tower so that Lux can't shove the wave into you and get free poke off while pressuring under tower. Doing this will also open up roaming opportunities or better recall timing for Braum. When Braum hits Level 6 Glacial Fissure will let him get picks on Lux or her ADC if she wastes her major cooldowns. Since Lux has no mobility spells getting a knock-up on her when her defensive spells are down will usually lead to a Flash or a kill.”
Spection says “Has strong poke with her E, but it will make her go oom fast. Abuse her lack of mobility and throw Q's when hers is on cooldown. You'll want Zhonyas to counter her burst combo.”
Doody_tco says “Basically, Lux can ignore feeding her carry and go for Q>E>R and finish your carry, there is a chance for Yuumi's carry to survive with healing”
RayTeamStrategy says “Even though her range is better than yours, if she wants to do maximum damage she's going to need to get close enough for you to silence her, which keeps her in check for the most part. Thanks to your superior mobility, you will be able to be more active in securing objectives which makes this matchup tough for her. But her burst damage potential still keeps her as a relevant threat that isn't to be underestimated.”
Nexon22412 says “Can root you when using your E wait for the moment when she her Q on cooldown and then try engage her if you get caught by her Q she combo you with E + R and you are dead”
Billehz says “Her poke is very strong, and usually getting caught in her combo means you are dead. Your W does make it easier for you to dodge her Q and E, but if she is good she will probably be able to predict this and get some trades off on you. Once you have your ult she will become less of a problem as you can more easily dodge her q and go all out on her.”
Go Getter says “Lux is extremely annoying to face against in the early match up, you're likely to die if the ADC manages to follow up on anything she does.
Survive until you or your ADC can engage safely and you will demolish her with CC.”
Vispectra says “Lux is annoying , very annoying but not a hard match-up. She does a lot of damage but most of it is easily dodged with one Q , a sidestep or a well timed R. If you plan to fight her early post 6 , try to R onto her and move to the side , most lux players will throw the Q directly behind or in front of them to try to punish you. Her E and Auto-attack spam in lane might cause you some trouble.”
Bardificer says “W in from bushes and force fights, make her crazy paranoid about where the fish is coming from. Save R for when she full combos your adc.”
SupportTooEz says “Fuck Lux. Heal her harass, don't let adc get hit by root. Not really a hard match up to understand, but adcs have a tendency to get stunned by Lux so you can rush Mikael's Blessing if your adc is incompetent.”
GUYnumb3r 14 says “If lux hits you with abilities it will be a big problem, your shields will not beat her dmg early game. this might make you fall behind.”
duusuhh says “While you have to get close to do your damage, something Lux can abuse, playing around her cooldowns will keep things even. Just wait for her to waste Q and then get close, otherwise toss RQs. Consider maxing your E if she maxes hers first. ”
Esoterica says “Lux is a formidable matchup mid but not in botlane, as she must choose between trying to burst you or your ADC down.
Her Light Binding is easy to avoid and should be punished if she randomly throws it out. Her shield is also not effective at early levels, and she may not always get her ADC with it as well. Focus the ADC but stay aware of where she is standing.
Her QER combo at level 6 does ~60% of your HP.”
DamselOfDistress says “Luxe´s E makes laning dificult. Don´t be afraid to get close to her during an engage, it makes her Q hard to hit. She is still squishy, so she shouldn´t give you much trouble.”
Pigeont says “Just not fun, she slow+ poke you and can root you trough the minion, can one-shot you if lvl 6 and in advance, get the 300g boots as soon as possible and maybe E lvl 3 to get back faster in lane, cause you will need to dodge a lot, depend on the skill. If she use her E you can try to poke her while paying attention to the ADC.”
edkemr says “RUN CONFIDENT RUNES.
Lux is easy to kill and has shorter range. However, Lux is Lux, right? She's obnoxious as hell and her Q is basically a death sentence due to the great hitbox it has. Also her ult can match yours if she's neraby enough. Still, it's in you favour, but don't overextend.”
Daraysen says “Pretty even, try to hook her when she throws her Q since she won't have her root and she can't move while in her animation, making her vulnurable to you and your ADC.”
Dotje says “Mage supports.. I despite them. If they don't win in laning I am pretty sure you'll be the better support. In case she's been very deadly you could get crucible to save your ally from her root and damage. But besides that just practise dodging her abilities.”
VeneficusFerox says “Once you have boots, you can easily dodge her Q. Just don't get caught, as with all squishy vs Lux. Biggest threat is her long range ult to get kills and assists out of lane, just like you would do with your ult. Except she doesn't need to leave her lane for that long.”
KeleiX13 says “Her E's and Q's are usually pretty dodgeable since the projectiles are so slow. You outdamage her early on with your Q auto combo so consistently harass with that. If you're close enough, you can also cancel her ult with your ult stun if you get hit by a Q. However, if the Lux is good and you get hit by a lot of her abilities, you will probably be burst down pretty quickly so stay behind at least two minions when poking.”
Sinci says “Lux does outrange you but you can still manage ways to trade with her if she ever comes to try proc her passive with auto attacks, she is very punishable when she uses her abilities but really scary has them and if you get hit you usually have to use many abilities to stay alive.”
Adam bot says “She has high damage, but you out-scale her and with your movement speed you should never get caught by her bind, unless she flashes for you.”
Discord231 says “Con esta tipa deberás comer daño de gratis para proteger a tu adc de su pokeo, pero con cuidado de no comerte su cc, y si no la matas antes de hacer un objetivo, prepárate para que lo robe.”
LilRidge says “ Lux is incredibly immobile and squishy, so you should always try to use the lane brushes to get close to her and all in her. You can easily take her down with your (W) Ferromancy - Crash Down and (E) Attract and Repel if you land on top of her. Avoid her poke.”
Tauricus2017 says “Lux has been nerfed so heavily recently that she doesn't feel like a thread anymore, just watch out for her skillshots and when she overextends to proc her passive, make sure she will regret that..”
SpartanDumpster says “Lux is likely to out-damage Zilean, so you need to stay on your toes, dodging her abilities, especially her Q. Once you're rooted, her and her adc can unload on you for a lot of damage. The only reason she's Major and not Extreme is because she roots instead of stuns. While rooted Lux and her adc are likely to put themselves in a position for you to stun them both, and you can cast your ult on yourself if you have it, so revive and run, boosting your own speed. ”
Rainuu says “Lux is an easy lane for Lillia as she easily evade everything that Lux has to throw at her. Beware of her poke prelevel 6 however, it can be incredibly annoying”
Ruiner of Fun says “Her Q usually means death. Unlike Morgana she can output enough damage by herself to kill you. Don't stack up on each other and carefully bait or dodge her skillshots. If you cannot dodge her Q it would be better if you dodged the lobby.”
Kefochka says “Как поукер, Люкс хороша, у неё хороший контроль, она может харасить, но и наказать её можно. Обычно она выдаёт Q и E вместе, что позволит вам на какое-то время отогнать её. В размене или файте Тарику лучше сразу активировать ульту, чтобы сберечь себя и своего союзника.”
Starchase says “Don't detach from your ADC unless she misses her Q.
Sustain all her poke damage with your E.
Tell your ADC to position behind 2 minions so that her Q gets stucked with them.
Rush Mikael's Blessing.
You hard outscale her.”
Midas_Wail says “Instead of going through each champion and telling you who to be scared of, I want to give you a general idea of what forms of tough matchups look like. Fortunately, the skill of your ADC can make most of the matchups ALOT easier, or harder. Lux and others like her is pretty tough because she has a large amount of poke and cc, and in tandem with her ADC it can be really scary for a teammate to 1v2 while you are off roaming. I'd suggest staying in lane more often in order to give peel to your ADC.”
XD001 says “Free lane. dodge as many skillshots as you can early and at level 6-11 just kill her on cooldown with your full rocketbelt combo. Shove waves mid and look for roams jg/top/bot. In the late game you can look to 1 shot Lux and other squishies through flanks. Be careful to not get CC chained.
Ekko outscales Lux.
electrocute + sorcery + tp”
mellorpyke says “Lux is pretty free, 1 good hook and she's dead. Be careful at level 6 tho because she can oneshot you with her full combo. You can stalk her for the entire game with prowlers build, but make sure to oneshot her before she oneshots you!”
Takitsu says “Hook = Kill
Lux is extremely squishy. Wait for her E, then look for hooks. No escapes aside from Flash. Even if she binds you or your carry, a hook can still result in her dying. Post-6 she can 100-0 so beware of her binds.”
Xeptron says “Very simular to Morgana. Dodge her Q ability (root) and you are free to engage. If Lux is using aftershock, try to engage AFTER her aftershock's been used, makes it easier to kill. ”
losolkos says “Try to always move to make her try to hit you much harder also stay close to the minions she cant stun you if you are behind the minion she can hit with Q 2 targets. She have nothing to run so just slow her and focus on her and she cant run away if you dont let her hit you.”
Discord231 says “Con esta tipa deberás comer daño de gratis para proteger a tu adc de su pokeo, pero con cuidado de no comerte su cc, y si no la matas antes de hacer un objetivo, prepárate para que lo robe. ”
Kadiyarch says “It is a dodge skill match-up. she has a greater range so you have 2 choices: play every far and wait to have a good combo with flash or get very close so that you can hit her. If you do that, make sure that you adc is ready to follow otherwise you will most likely die alone.”
Coo1breeze says “Like Brand, she can harass you and the ADC pretty well, but she doesn't do as much early damage as Brand. If you can avoid her abilities and pokes, you will be ahead of her in gold, and you should be able to easily grab and kill her.”
EionThePepega says “Lux might seem your clone, but she is not, because her burst potential is huge. Seeing most Lux summoners love to Ult after Q and E, black shield early and go either Poke oriented or Scale oriented.”
Gryndall says “This depends too how enemy Lux good is. If you are not good on avoiding her stun I recommend buy Banshee or you don't want waste slot. You can take Cleanse. However if she not get overfed our flowers will tears her down.”
MagicPOwDer says “No need to ban her. she's only a high threat because she will try to outpoke you at the beginning and her root will be very annoying. try to bait out her abilities pre-level 3. Let her waste her mana. Then stun and E combo her at level 3 to force her back.”
xDopii says “Another annoying poke support that will stand behind minions. Due to your tankiness, she shouldn't be doing a lot of damage though. Try to stay in bushes and dodge her attacks. If you can get a hook on her, she is pretty much dead”
Magdaleno9 says “You absolutely destroy her, specially if she goes damage. Her q is very easy to dodge since it's super slow and her peel is very poor. Always power chord Q her and scare her. If you and your adc can kill her do it, she has no escape :).”
EionThePepega says “Consider her as Zyra's Long Lost Demacian Sister (Zyra's Demacian but you get it). Dodge Root or she will waste every ability on you.”
The Lotus Queen says “Getting hit by Lux' high damage combo can result in your death, and her long range can make it very hard to get through laning phase. Rush boots to dodge her spells to get through the early game, and do your best to win with your late game scaling.”
Jexeff says “This champion is not what it used to be last season. This champ has seen a lot of nerfs in the support to role. As long as you avoid her snare you should be able to walk up to her. ”
razzyhealer says “Notable for her CC from her Q, which is a straight line, but which can also pierce through a target. Getting caught usually means you'll die to her.”
Wounds2 says “Lux bullies Rakan in laning phase, but the narrative stays the same as against most other enchanter/mage supports. They are pretty greedy when it comes to poking and can easily be punished if they overextend. Be cautious for her Q when you are engaging, as it can shut you down pretty hard.”
icebombhunter says “Boring. Bait her q and then all in her, you are stronger at all levels, just rush mercury, if she roots you after your e you will probably die.”
DutchWolf114 says “Skill match-up, which is good for us because all Lux supports think they are LCS players, so we can easily exploit their arrogance.”
itizhelia says “You go even in lane since her job is to stop you from doing your dashes by poking you, but you have an ability to dodge her Qs and Es.
But bear in mind that going into mid-game her cooldowns are much shorter which is why it's really tricky to play against her since a good Lux can f*CK you up really hard.”
Find0 says “I feel like lux shouldnt be here but here we go. you slaughter her if you dont get poked early. cheater recall for boots if possible so you can dodge her skillshots asap. Very snowbally pre 6 if you do int.
WIN CON IS ALL IN”
Royal Shaco says “hes even cause if she hits q ur dead
u dodge shes dead so in late game pretty much one shoots you with q and then the fllowing ult ur dead just dodge her q
”
Navn says “As long as you don't get binded, you should be ok. Her E is pretty hard to dodge early, but you can shield yourself or your lane partner. Then just auto attack her for trades. Depending who her lane partner is (Caitlyn is the scariest), this lane can become unplayable very quickly.”
Xeptron says “Lux is one of the other AP damage dealer support champions that people decide to play. She does very well in terms of poke since she can get a safe distance and throw her abilities at you. Due to her low CD on her ultimate ability, she can burst anyone pretty well since all LUX players build AP to make her shield bigger and damage higher.
There's one counter to her poke - finding a way to hook her and punish her for it. Remember - lux has no escapes. Her only escape is flash. Once the flash is burnt, she has no way of escaping a hook. Once you land a couple, you will able to kill her over & over again leaving her usless and weakened.”
Frank6264 says “Lux puede hacer lo mismo que una Karma de manera mejorada, aparte de que su CC y daño son mejores y más fáciles de aplicar que con Karma. Depende del ADC enemigo Lux puede ser una amenaza muy grande o extrema. Recomiendo tratar de evitar que desgaste demasiado en línea posicionandose en lugares de fácil movilidad (estar aislado de los minions por ejemplo) y de evitar principalmente el CC de la Q ya que es altamente probable que les puedan matar. Runas defensivas y extenuación son recomendables en este enfrentamiento.”
rcyuumi says “Avoid Lux's poke damage and Q's and you are fine. Don't and you will have serious issues if she is paired with an ADC like Jhin, Cait, Ashe, Draven, etc.”
Pixel Pocket says “Lux is in a good spot right now, she's a little more vulnerable to your engages than Brand or Xerath as she will want to auto-attack more to proc her passive, abuse this to get the upper hand and you can win”
CaptianMike says “You must dodge her root. Lux has high damage for a support, but is low health herself. If you can dodge her q, you'll be fine. Take SCORCH”
jessuva says “I don't like facing Lux in lane, because she deals a lot of damage and her root is annoying. If you can dodge her root, she shouldn't be too much of an issue, but she has a TON of poke. ”
Quadliss says “She can hit a cage and 1 shot you before you do anything. The laning phase is hard with her E, she has a shield and a range for counter you're box. She has a huge scale, you can't outscake her. I recommand you to ban her. ”
Lykzar says “An annoying matchup. Go for trades after she uses her abilities. I'd recommend going perfect timing here to avoid the burst she can provide.”
CastratedSeal says “She has okay pick potential, but it's a skill matchup. If you dodge her bindings, you should win lane. Start Relic Shield. Consider buying a Mikael's.”
Titans Revenge says “Lux E is harder to dodge than her other skillshots, but does a good bit of poke damage in lane. She is highly immobile and if she misses her Q you can all in her.”
Hceercs says “She's somewhere between a 3 and 4 as she has decent poke and can root you, and has all the qualities of an annoying mage matchup, but she really isn't as hard to deal with as Velkoz/Brand/Zyra.”
RedNBlue says “Uh oh! Watch out, lux will root you, you will root her, you will Q her, healing yourself, auto her and get a wraith stalker, and then she downshift her engine ridding her of cool downs and she will unload her arsenal on you. NOTE: you will be dead. Laning phase will be the same thing except you better hope you can get tanky fast because you will be getting blasted by two people and you and your adc will both be blasting lux but its not going to be fun. You will be cursing and screaming kicking your desk when you die in this situation. Good Luck. I don't know”
IbnBattuta says “Lux isn't that much of a threat but as Support to an ADC she is actually dangerous since you can't focus on her with ADC next to her or Vice Versa so as long she is alone, you are free to kill her but with someone better wait for backup.”
ParadoxRoli says “If she missed her hook she is useless. You can all in her. Also her Q and your Q ranges are the same, so if she is not ahead you can tank her Q shot while hooking her yourself. ”
GMGZ2 says “AHH THE LIGHT BURNS MY EYES! LUX IS SO HARD TO DEAL WITH IN S11. Use your Q to dodge her R, can't block her Q or E since her Q is a double shot that can hit two targets in a line and her E is a big circle that hits everything in it. Poking her is also difficult since she can use W and shield herself. Lastly, if she has R up, try and also have your Q up as well or else you will have almost no way to dodge or have your R to counter by teleporting after going invincible and invisible for a brief moment. Then if your clone survives throw it at her if you can. Oh and another thing, she can just root or slow your clone making almost impossible to get it near her. Lastly, use your boxes in bushes to try and stop sneak attacks and that is all the advice I have for this DEMACIA SCUM.”
Tartmeringue says “While Lux does a lot of damage and will outscale you late game, she's very squishy and easy pickings if you dodge her root and all in her with your adc.”
Frogsterr says “Roots you at level 2 with her Q, so be cautious around her. Make sure you poke her a bit pre-6 and 6+ so you can counter her a bit and mow her down.”
just_juniper says “Both Zyra and Lux have long range harass, great teamfighting and CC. Engage whenever she uses Q, play safe whenever she has it up. She is extremely squishy, so catching her usually results in a kill.”
Guoblide says “Lux another pretty tough matchup for you due to her good poke and peel from her Light Binding. She has really strong poke with her Lucent Singularity which can also apply a slow and make it easy for her to auto attack you and proc Illumination for a lot of damage. Avoiding Lucent Singularity is very important because her hitting it can lead into you taking a lot of un-needed damage. Lux uses Lucent Singularity as well as Light Binding to check bushes and make it harder for you to dive. Try to stand right inside of Lux's ability range to make it easy to just walk backwards and dodge her skillshots when she casts them at you. The most dangerous Lux ability for Sett is definitely Light Binding. Lux can easily hit it when you engage on her due to your large hitbox. Try to camp lane bushes to pressure Lux to throw it out. Once her Light Binding is down try to make a play by Knuckle Down or Flashing into her. Running Ghost is decent here because it lets you stick to her even if she slows you with Lucent Singularity. Rushing Boots of Swiftness is also really important because it makes the Lucent Singularity slow way less crippling for you. You hard out-roam her due to you being way waster from getting items like Dead Man's Plate and Boots of Swiftness. Try to roam mid a lot and help your jungler secure Rift Scuttlers and Dragons. You strongly out-duel her in 2v2s, 3v3s, and teamfights so always contest objectives with your team when even with them. Keep in mind that Lux can easily steal Dragons with her Lucent Singularity + Final Spark combo so try to Hextech Flashtraption over the Dragon pit wall and deny her the space to pull off her combo. Also, since Light Binding is a root and not a stun, remember to Haymaker when she Light Bindings in order to get the shield and stay alive.”
InsaneWind says “Poke poke poke. She will poke you till you cannot fight, it is wise to try fighting her at level 3 and not before that unless she took her snare and AOE damage attack. ”
0mori says “She's like Morgana. Just don't get stunned and survive the laning game/burst damage that she has. You're more useful than her later wit the utility you provide for your team. ”
Midori Schaaf says “Building MR, HP and tenacity to deal with Lux sacrifices too much gold. Positioning is key, and focus the ADC. Prepare to die a few times before you start to snowball. ”
Somoko says “Champions like Lux, Morgana, Xerath, etc. will try to duel you in the middle of laning phase. You should be fine so long as you only attack them when you know they've busted their spells.”
ReignMargulan says “Lux is even in the sense that she can be a tough matchup if she builds correctly and hits her skills. But she is also extremely squishy so just exploit that”
Fictitious1267 says “I'd suggest poking until you know an engage would win the fight, or wait for jungle to gank. She has too much ability to CC and add damage for you to play aggressive in a 2v2 situation.”
NirvanaBunny says “Lux has a strong poke with her E and passive, but she's squishy. Her mana-cost for her abilities makes her run out of mana fast, and her cooldowns early game are decent. You can abuse her lack of mobility and can CC her when her Q or E is on cooldown.”
aliteralpieceofwood says “A very annoying matchup, but possible. Avoid her root (Q) as much as possible especially when she gains her ultimate as she can one shot you. Use the brush as much as possible and try to outscale her. ”
Kilo Khaos says “Annoying but bearable. Dodge her skill shots, and don't engage when her snare is off CD, as it can lead to a bad trade. Always keep a lantern ready after she's level 6, her ult has an extremely low CD and will do a large amount of damage if allowed to hit.”
moon827 says “I'm going to preface this by saying she's not a real support. She's a mid laner. Besides that, as long as you can dodge the root, you should be fine, but if she lands it, there is a pretty good chance that you are going to be dead.”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Lux is more annoying than a real threat to you.
She has a lot of poke, so in the early game she will be very obnoxious to deal with.
The thing about Lux is that she is so squishy and has 0 form of escape. So if you manage to land a hook on her she will very easily be bursted down.
What you do need to be careful of is her burst damage. If she lands her snare on you or your AD carry post 6, immediately throw out your lantern because if she follows up with her ultimate, you will really need the shield.”
Frixen says “Cleanse or Ignite.
Push her in, avoid her Q, and you can just run her down in an extended setting. She cannot keep up with your roams and sucks at cs'ing under turret. The only way you lose that is if you get caught by her Q and get poked out. ”
Bouhhsolene says “You're just a better Lux. Poke ? you does that better. CC? You does that better. Supporting ? You does that better
You just win against Lux”
Tauricus2017 says “Hard matchup. Her poke is pretty damn strong and her range is too high for you to be able to engage. Go for Defensive Against Poke runepage and try not to feed. She scales well. Try to punish however her position mistakes.”
SolarSupport says “Lux's poke isn't as powerful as Brand's, but it's still very formidable. Her range also makes her almost impossible to engage on, meaning you have to attack her ADC”
sashadidntwalk says “First of all, I don't count her as a support, but a mid-laner, most people will pick her when they get support and still end up with NO support items. But that out of the way, her Q will be spammable and if she gets you, you can end up dead, but if she takes your ADC instead just W them out of it instantly and she'll use her most common ability, she'll be throwing E's down at you almost all the time so just try to dodge it and poke her out, she is squishy so it shouldn't be that hard. Her ult is easily avoidable unless you get stunned but, again, if your ADC gets the Q>R just swallow them.”
Reason97 says “A lux who know's how to utilize her kit is gonna give you a headache. the issue here is that she just has so much more range then you, making it really easy for her to poke you down in lane, especially with the absurd AOE on her main poke tool, her E. If you can get an early lead, she won't be as much as an issue, but between easy poke, long range kit, and her absurd amounts of stacked damage and low cooldown's, if she get's ahead, you'll need to wait till later to deal with her. You arguably bring more to a teamfight then her, but the biggest issue is just gonna be if she get's ahead.
”
KeleiX13 says “Watch for her root and be sure to shield her E when she pokes. She runs out of mana easily if she plays aggressively early so make sure to poke when he abilities are on cooldown and when she's out of mana.”
ShroudedBRH says “Lux has alot of poke available on short cooldowns as the game progresses she gets access to more damage. Try to bait out her Q to punish her ADC as she will likely run away after missing”
Spection says “UNCOMMON. Man, is Lux annoying! She can peel hard for her ADC and has powerful zoning capabilities which are hard to dodge. Her combo can 100-0 you if she catches you off guard. Build mercury's treads and hide in minions or dodge her slow moving Q to win lane. It will only hit the first two minions and the hotbox is slightly larger than the projectile, so be safe when dodging it.”
Mickeystick says “Lux still hurts if she gets a Caitlyn ADC. The goal of this champ is to shove the wave under turret and poke you, so try not to let her shove the first few waves. Instead of throwing your hook, hold onto it so you have the threat of it. However if you do hook her, she'll almost always die or burn both summoners.”
Wicked Cherry says “Don't get caught by her root, otherwise you'll risk being ulted by her which means you're pretty dead.
Also, she's got more range than her, so be carefull and try to attack her once she's used her abilities.”
Wicked Cherry says “Try not to get caught by her root or she'll be able to land a full combo on your which would most likely be your death sentence.
I'd recommend waiting out her abilities and harass her while they're on cooldown.
Don't forget that she's got a higher range than you.”
Wicked Cherry says “She can root you and if past 6, you're most likely dead if she does. So grab those mobility boots and try to remember you're a master of dodging her spells. She's annoying but if she can't get enough kills, she'll simply fall off like a leaf off a tree in autumn. However, asking your jungler for ganks would never be a bad idea in this case.”
orbiterpluto says “In 10.11, she got the E slow buff whcih really hurts Ivern. She will most likely build full AP so I would build tanky, but enchanter is fine too. Dodge her q and e and then all in.”
QueerJunk says “Nami has a 60% winrate against lux! You outheal her poke, and if you land your CC on her she will feed in an instant. Avoid getting her fed for freelo!”
TheSpecialist says “Lux is nearly a direct counter to Pyke, the Root screws over Pyke and can be followed up by any of Lux's other abilities for high burst Damage. Even Lux's Q can reveal Pyke's location”
xlouis31 says “Lux' range is so annoying, but you should be fine if you Flash + Q her after she walks up and misses her Q. Should be pretty easy to deal with her after you hit lv. 6.”
Malbonaviro says “Taric is a special type of champion that fits into what is known as the "support trinity". Most champions are built around the idea of scaling in which champions that scale at different rates have their own counters they're good against, similar to rock, paper, scissors. In the case of support champions, the triangle isn't a matter of scaling, but more of a matter of crowd control abilities. The support triangle works as follows. Hook support beat immobilization support, immobilization champions beat damage delay support, and damage delay support beats hook support. This is a very mechanic heavy triangle and isn't dictated by how well you farmed, which is why some of these characters are very good at supporting. Because Lux is an immobilization support and Taric's entire kit depends on his mobility while he's also a damage delay support, it's a hard mechanic to circumvent.”
ShanksMeister says “Really bad. As long as you don't get rooted you'll be fine. You can rush tier 1 boots to dodge her skillshots and use your E so you'll be faster.”
Giraffe3100 says “Lux sucks. Don't lose to a Lux Mid, as Swain that is embarrassing. Just dodge her abilities and walk past them right into her face and kill her. Q a lot.”
LegendLuklus says “Like Brand, she is weaker in early game, but her pokes keep you away. Fortunately, her pokes are easier to dodge and deal less damage. ”
ZILMORG says “Don't get hit by her snare. Stay back and react once she focuses your ADC, by Q+W+Qing their ADC in return (this stops the engage and gives your ADC time to reposition). Lux is good at pushing the wave into your tower, meaning more opportunities for your Jungler to gank. You can walk up, E+Q+W+Q Lux since she has no escapes and secure an easy kill. The hardest part is dodging her snare to make the engage actually possible. To counter her pushing power, use your Q on the three melee minions at the front of each minion wave, then help your ADC auto them down. Slow down their push and try to freeze the wave under your turret so your jungler can gank more reliably. In teamfights, you have to react quickly with your ultimate to save the target she's bursting down. Never get caught out yourself; stay behind your team and E your bruisers/tanks into her.”
Mczrks says “Tbh i don't remember when i last struggled against lux, she have only skill shots that are really hard to land on pyke because of his mobility. Dodge her root and it will be easy win.”
Vexno says “She isn't meant to be in support in my opinion as she is a mid laner but as long as you can dodge the root that goes through 1 target you will be fine, if not you are probably going to die.”
Krynomi says “Her root puts you in a vulnerable position so be careful about that. Her slow is pesky but shouldn't provide that much difficulty. If her AP scales out of control be really careful about her Q+E+R/Q+R combo.”
DarthMagic says “Her root can go through minions whilst your hook can't which is very annoying. She also has good poke. If you can land a hook on her she should die very fast.”
Lesbiannie says “Best thing to do vs Lux supp is to poke her down whenever you get the chance so she can't stay in lane for long, the slow isn't much a problem but her Q is.”
TailsGothicAngel says “It all depends on the player. Some can land their root's every single time, every time, and thus leave you bursted down into oblivion but others won't be able to land them as often. Keep your eyes peeled.”
Joseseyboy says “Lux burst damage and movement impediment can be intimidating and overwhelming. Dodging is as useful as it gets.Remenber that you stop as you cast your bombs, play smart around her cool downs to not fall into her combo.”
aliteralpieceofwood says “Very hard match-up especially if she lands her root on you so try to counter-attack with sear if she's already blazed. She can outpoke you pretty well so try to use your added speed to your advantage. ”
brandbrandbrandbrandbrand says “Just dodge. This champion sucks to fight versus and a good one will just take relic shield and not let you play the game while sitting back and negating any damage you might do to her carry through her w and guardian.”
SkeleMan says “Long range multi-person stun. It's a bit annoying. Also a multi-person shield. If she gets ahead she'll oneshot you and her shield will be 600+ dmg shield. If she's behind or even it's fine.”
NyanCool says “Nautilus n'est pas très mobile alors certains mages auront beaucoup de faciliter à te poke, donc il faut essayer de prendre le moins de dégâts possible pour pouvoir répondre rapidement lors d'un gank”
Hoshikoo746 says “I feel good :D
For the same reason as Morgana, she's not a high threat. Just beware of her poke.
But don't get catch after lvl 6, it can cost you life.”
snukumz says “She out ranges you with 2 abilities that do damage.
She has a shield that can negate your poke and your ult.
At level 6 she can 100-0 you if she lands her full combo on you so watch out. ”
snukumz says “She can be pretty annoying or pretty easy. If you dodge her skill shots then she isn't much of a problem but if she lands her skill shots then she can wreck you. ”
snukumz says “Watch out for her poke since he has more of it than you, and she has more range than you.
Her combo will delete you, just as yours can delete her. ”
Allergic says “A good Lux support will root you before you can use whiplash, and her root lasts forever, and with this build you're squishy and will probably die if she manages to land a Q. Her E will also reveal you.”
thesophieset says “You don't really want to pick Soraka into Lux. Although there are ways to win this lane (early Mikaels and MR stacking), she can just purchase an early Oblivion Orb and make your life hell. Her early damage output is high and a good Lux will look to focus you and shut you down before they turn onto your ADC.”
Guffel says “Good poke and range. try to kill her before she gets Lost Chapter for her unlimited poke. After that play safe and wait for an opportunity.”
NalgaSensei says “Lux severely outranges you and out pokes you. Because of this it's easy for her to land her Q (root) on you while you try to cast your abilities.”
Lambimia says “ If it's in mid, be safe, mas if it's supp, wait, does anyone still do lux supp?
Se estiver mid, toma cuidado, mas se estiver sup, ainda fazem lux sup?”
Oiaki says “Lux is a HUGE problem when ur playing pyke. She has her CC which u wont be able to stand while youre going in with ur Q or E, when u go in she will combo u starting with Q and ur probably ded. :(((”
snukumz says “Don't get snared and keep your distance so that she can use her explosing E on you.
She can 100-0 you if she lands her full combo so be mindful of that.
Her shield can negate quite a bit of your damage to her and her ADC.
Try to safely poke her down while being safe. Be aggressive if her skillshots are down.”
KuuHaKu_OtgmZ says “Soraka has few difficult matches, but Lux's poke 'n stun combo is ridiculous. Try to finish items as soon as possible to outscale her AP”
Metalbashev says “Her poke and CC are really annoying to have to deal with. Especially if the Lux player is experienced, they will make sure to ruin your day, they will stop you from engaging and disengaging. It will become often when you flash or ingage into the Lux root but if you react fast with your Ult to take it off and follow up on that with more abilities (offensive or defensive) you should be able to outplay the non-outplayable.”
frekko says “She isn't too strong against you, but she forces you to build MR (so you will not build Tornmail first) and her poke can be really annoying. Dodge her Q, or engage her before she does. You just will destroy her in the mid/late.”
LettArcticFox says “Lux isn't really a threat, her Q has a lot of range, but if you are in close range you gain the upperhand since you can cast your Q even if you are in Lux's Q.”
Sq_09 says “BY THE LIGHT!!! *stroke*
Good poke, engage-CC and CC overall. Also very high damage. You can peel well tho and kinda nullify her. Very annoying tho. ”
Randomless says “You outrange her. She's probably not even going to try to catch you and focus on your ADC instead but you can just heal your ADC after her lane combo is over.”
SynLynx says “I honestly don't understand why people play this champion in support. Her q is the only part of her kit which is dangerous to you, so always avoid that, you'll never win a trade if you get hit by it. But if she's used it, you can try to w her and get an easy kill.”
rquoe says “Annoyingly long range, but otherwise not that dangerous. As long as you keep dodging her skillshots and harassing her when her dangerous abilities are on cooldown, she shouldn't be hard to deal with.”
Abusable Yuumi says “Can be a kill lane for your ADC or a kill lane for theirs - if your ADC can dodge, you win lane. If not, you're going to have a bad time.
Consider asking ADC to take Cleanse over Barrier.
If she's ahead, Mikaels will more often than not save your ADC or whoever else is unlucky enough to get snared.”
I main support says “Lux is a debatable one, being that she has a lot of CC, they're not very effective going against a Soraka since you're always staying behind your allies so Lux have a harder time trying to kill you, even early game, your ADC usually will take her abilities and you cal always heal them.”
Dougaroo says “Lux's stun followed by her ult will easily melt you and your teammate. You need to be building MR as well as health early on if she gets fed.”
HoneyQT says “Usually a very easy matchup, Her damage isn't relevant past 30 minutes and while her CC is good, it takes a very consistent lux player to constantly pull it off. Usually picked by autofill players.”
Cat Elf says “She has a lot of burst, usually she can 100-0 your adc with her full combo and help from the enemy adc. Her Q also can hit 2 people so keep that in mind. ”
LoveL0rn says “If she hits you with q its no big deal, especially when W curse is ready to proc. Make sure you have Q to charm her so she cant follow up, aftershock giving the defense needed for the adc and the burst damage around you for when shes not charmed anymore.”
Epic Striker says “Lux can just about destroy anyone she is pretty op and needs a nerf just stay near your tower unless you got a good adc then you should be fine.”
PayyBack says “Lux can counter your engage with her root and you should avoid her abilities, play passive and engage at 6 when her abilities are on CD.”
StormAegis says “Teemo is pretty much dead if hooked or stunned for a good amount of time, so be careful with any matchup of this kind. If you get blocked don't panick, and if you know you'll be dead, try to deal the most damage you can to the weakest enemy around. Sometimes you can secure some kills even when in a death situation like this. If your opponent is alone and not fed, try to avoid him in the early game, but you should be able to 1v1 him with Q and AA and usually win. If you are in danger just Q him, avoid any hooks/stuns and run away with your W. You can use your R behind or ahead to slow the enemies chasing you.”
Flint124 says “If you flash over her binding, she's killable with some effort.
Otherwise, her shield makes her damn near impossible to poke down and you won't get on top of her.”
Daedralus says “Range is a huge problem with her, but coming in for an auto attack for her passive will give you an opening. Using your E practically blocks her Ult burst, and is an overall squishy and vulnerable champ in the end. If you ult while she uses her Q, you will be immune to it and will counter her heavily with such a play and will leave her open to the Q + gunblade one shot combo afterwards. Overall, if you can handle her ranged harass and use an opening well, this can be a very easy matchup, or a very hard one if failed. ”
SorakaBestWaifu says “KS queen
most of them are focus on building AP items and nuke you to oblivion.
Immobile champ for the most part so easy to kill her off when she mess up.”
Curmudgeon says “Lux has minor CC, and not too much damage output if she isn't getting kills. She shouldn't be much of a threat if you can dodge her Q. Pretty even lane match up.”
Kefochka says “Опять же, схожие умения позволяют лучше вжиться в поведение Люкс. Она будет стараться выходить и попадать станом и замедлением, а в разменах прожимать щит и отступать.”
Bobbab says “Poke Supports beats Illaoi if they outrange her E. Go Shoulderguard and play passive if your adc scales or wait for them to mess up. Guardian is advisable”
Jointed says “Lux has turned into a fully fledged support. She will rush Ardent and Athene's...and not lose much damage. She has full potential to burst your lane and is a formidable challenge. Keep her cooldowns in mind and trade when you can”
KitsyMamori says “Stay behind 2+ minions to make her Q useless. When she throws her Q and you either blocked it with minions or dodged it, go all in with your full combo (explained in abilities).”
Gravixx says “You have to win this matchup early game. It's a very skill based matchup, hinging on your ability to dodge. Later in the game, if you get caught by her Q, you're pretty much dead. She has no mobility so you have to punish hard for her missing her skillshots.”
Hanjaro says “She has more range than you, her full combo can spell your death, so try to dodge her root. Mostly just have to play passive and farm up here.”
Hanjaro says “Lux has a higher range than you, and with her shield being one of the strongest in the game, can out trade you if she lands a root. Dodge her abilities, poke her when they're on cooldown, ask for a gank.”
Aizenvolt says “Lux is a special case after 6 you have her but pre 6 she can be a pain with her insane poke. If you dont die pre 6 its easy to kill her after 6. Do whatever you can to not die pre 6 because if she gets fed you know what will happen to your team. Ask for ganks to get 1 kill pre 6 then your job is easy in the mid lane.”
Hanjaro says “She has long range, high damage, and a root combo could spell your death. Dodge her abilities, harass when they're on cooldown as she's squishy. All in on her generally can spell a kill.”
GoBucket says “Decent CC and damage that are pretty easy to land. Bait them out and get on top of her and you are good to go. Her poke is not as menacing as Xerath or Vel'Koz and her Q is pretty slow. This lane depends on your ability to dodge her roots, if you do you can pressure her and you would win. If you don't...”
Zer0XM says “Lux is something I see people saying isn't bad for Naut but I disagree, it mainly depends on the Lux and if she can land her Q on you mid hook (sometimes she can hit you before your hook collides). Besides that you can eat everything she tosses and she doesn't have that much capability to survive a hook, even without your team you can beat her out in lane.”
Zefirez says “Recommended Rune Set: Hail of Blades.
Not much to talk about here - Lux is Lux. Don't eat her q and you're golden. Given that you have highest base movement speed ingame you don't have any excuses for getting caught. Practice your dodging skills if you're still getting trapped way too often.
Other then that this matchup is plain easy - once her q missed, engage and kill her ass.
Oh and try not to use your E too often - nothing is more juicy then watching her ult get reduced to 0 by a well timed Aegis Assault - you don't wanna miss out on that fun cause you used it earlier just to look cool!
Oh, and another nice and nasty way to curbstomp her blonde ass - red wards and oracle lense. Kill her vision! Lux snowballs off landing ult snipes thanks to deep wards in your jungle, brushes, dragon pit and whereer she can plop a ward down (or her teammate). Deny her vision and watch her cry tears as she's just falling more and more behind...”
Vexno says “She isn't meant to be in support in my opinion as she is a mid laner but as long as you can dodge the root that goes through 1 target you will be fine, if not you are probably going to die.”
Puck333 says “All Lux her attacks are skillshots. Especially when you are at a higher level, your speed is really high, so you can easily dodge them. Look out for her stun though. ”
Leaguecitizen says “Lux is a big problem for Leona.
The reason is simple: she has ranged CC as well as high damage output.
One bind is all it takes to get all your summoners or potentially kill you.
This is a lane where you need to play defensively, and look for the right opportunity to go in.
Luckily, unlike Morgana, she has no spellshield or escape mechanism.
If you manage to get on her, she's likely dead.
Exploit her low mobility by either engaging in lane with your ult, or roaming.”
Leaguecitizen says “Lux is a big problem for Nautilus.
The reason is simple: she has ranged CC as well as high damage output.
One bind is all it takes to get all your summoners or potentially kill you.
With your W, you should hopefully be able to narrowly escape.
This is a lane where you need to play defensively, and look for the right opportunity to go in.
Luckily, unlike Morgana, she has no spellshield or escape mechanism.
If you manage to get on her, she's likely dead.

FabioOoOoOo says “Will pretty much destroy you if she gets a lead. You won't be able to overcome her with MR if she builds a void staff. This is my go to ban”
Leaguecitizen says “Lux can be dangerous, but only if she hits her abilities.
She doesn't have any sustain, and if you play the lane smart and play back, she's going to have a hard time reaching you.
Even if she does, she might very well end up dying herself.”
spark2 says “Lux is actually a pretty fair champ. She's very long range, but all her stuff is skillshot based and therefore dodgeable. If you can get around her Q, you can dive her very easily in lane. If you can stay away from your minions in lane, you'll force her to choose between waveclearing with her E and harassing you with it.”
supersuavebro says “Her poke and root are very annoying, but even the best lux supports get too close to stay out of range, just punish them every time they creep and jump on their adc when they root yours”
NirvanaBunny says “Lux has a strong poke with her E and passive, but she's squishy. Her mana-cost for her abilities makes her run out of mana fast, and her cooldowns early game are decent. You can abuse her lack of mobility and can CC her when her Q or E is on cooldown.”
aimez says “I'm going to preface this by saying she's not a real support. She's a mid laner. Besides that, as long as you can dodge the root, you should be fine, but if she lands it, there is a pretty good chance that you are going to be dead.”
Ahpulzz says “Very frequently seen in normal games and lower elos, Lux is an annoying opponent to deal with. She has good CC and reasonable damage to follow it up, and her shield is able to defend both her carry and herself. The biggest issue is her far range, making landing a hook on her very difficult and forcing you to play around her abilities.
Her immobility makes her vulnerable to ganks and getting caught out, so definitely look for ganks in this matchup. Additionally, focus very hard on obtaining and denying vision because Lux will always try to combo opponents while hidden in brush or across walls.”
SirZeros says “Lux is strong because of her big range and damage output, call your jungler if she overextends or stun her if she hasn't got good positioning.”
Chromuro says “Avoid her Q or suffer the wrath of a teenager. Before 6 can be an even matchup, but she can still do a lot of damage and poke you out of lane. After 6 it becomes really difficult to manage her. All her power resides in her Q.”
samuraiPepsi says “Only ingage if you have item/cooldown/health advantage or if your ally laner or jungler is bot with you and theirs isnt. Also dodge as much poke as possible.”
Vermeio says “Problem is her root, somehow, it gravitates to you ALWAYS. Those long cc are troublesome to Poppy, because cc never comes alone. If too much trouble, boot asap, and MAYBE a talent on precision tree to raise tenacity. Easier late game than early.”
NeRu1980 says “DKM con hĩm này, nếu mid team bạn éo chơi thì cấm cmnl đi nhé, đây là con lz nhất cmn định phải cấm, bạn bay vào ad, vừa đánh thường 3 cái, ăn cái trói vào mồm thì chỉ có khóc, 10 cái khiên cũng éo giúp bạn thoát dc”
GlacialWarlock says “Lux... Oh, Lux...
She outranges you comically hard, her Light Binding (E) is annoying as Tahm Kench isn't exactly the best kiter in the game and can send you packing as you sit there, rooted.
Her Prismatic Barrier (Q) is similar to Karma's in which it helps the ADC escape their death and annoys the hell out of you.
And the Ultimate is something you should ALWAYS watch out for, even if you did build Magic Resist. If she does pop Final Spark (Q), your top priority is eating the ADC, no exceptions.”
Stand In The X says “Rush Mercury Treads and you should be fine. Try not to get caught by her Q or you have a high chance of dying and no one wants a fed Lux. ”
Beth_NHPS says “Her root can pass through a minion pinning you there next to it, just stay aware of it and it's cooldowns, and you should be fine. If not her landing her root on you will usually be fallowed by her ultimate, which is rarely pretty.”
Sona Aria says “Pretty simple matchup. If you don't get rooted. You win. Lux no longer buys damage items early, and instead buys Athenes unholy grail. This means that you get a free lane to scale provided you don't get burst. Going for poke on Lux w cooldown is recommended.”
1OLAF3 says “Okay I am not professional but I cant play against Lux, to me she is the worst counter to Ali at early game, late game is a bit easier if your team is playing good, but not at early too much CC”
Osamabinlaggin96 says “As soon as she burns her q its a free double kill. if u land a hook on her its over for her, its up to u whether to focus her vs adc in lane.”
SetsumiV1 says “Annoying, CC's you for days, has a massive shield, basically like Karma, only with more damage output, same applies, Ancient Coin is a good start”
Xavier Senori says “Lux is not too difficult to deal with. As long as you can dodge her binding, you should be fine in lane and for the majority of the game. The only problem is that her range will make it hard to harass her, so roam and farm your jungle whenever possible.”
TwistedFireX says “This is only put on Even because of her Root, if she lands it on you, it will HURT! Now, she is almost useless if she misses her W, though her shield can be annoying.”
Saethwyr says “Since the changes to her shield, you're not likely to see her, but it's not too rough of a matchup if you know how to dodge her Q and E.”
Better Call Phil says “I am biased for this matchup. One of my most hated champions.
When she maxes her shield, I want to break my computer.
Play around bushes, be aggro when she misses her Q, punish her.
Relic Shield or Ancient coin are both good. ”
The Jhin Cena says “Gross early game usually being poked constantly and having to recall, or running out of mana from dodging everything with Q and E. The way you wanna go against Lux early game is try and not use E or Q unless she's in range of your E so you can land it on her. Otherwise just try your best to farm and wait for your jungler. At level 6 try and land a full-ranged R on her and then E > W > Q. You should almost always grab Banshee's Veil as your 3rd item against Lux.”
NirvanaBunny says “Lux has a strong poke with her E and passive, but she's squishy. Her mana-cost for her abilities makes her run out of mana fast, and her cooldowns early game are decent. You can abuse her lack of mobility and can CC her when her Q or E is on cooldown.”
hipstersora says “Poke with Q, stay healthy. She's just as skillshot reliant as you even if hers are easier. Poke her down until you can all in her after she uses Q.”
LighterDay says “Champs that have ranged abilities are usually difficult for Pyke. Lux has to be the more difficult one because her snare prevents you from fully dashing and getting close. If against Lux, save your dash to evade a Lux snare and reposition yourself for a hook.”
best_shacosupport911 says “Who doesn't Lux threaten?
Her Q travels through boxes, E scouts brushes.
She can bind you through a box from her tower while standing in the middle of lane brush.”
Rozyrade says “As long as you don't get hit by her Q, you should be bale to survive. When she hits her Q, try to W to your adc as fast as possible to avoid damage.”
noolan says “Even though most of her abilities are dodgeable, her potential damage and bs shield are gross. You are going to either destroy her, or she is going to destroy you.”
Shderen says “Good trading potential and team fighting. In lane, do your best to dodge her E as that is what she's likely maxing. They tend to throw it behind you so consider walking toward her as she's about to cast it.”
NirvanaBunny says “Lux has a strong poke with her E and passive, but she's squishy. Her mana-cost for her abilities makes her run out of mana fast, and her cooldowns early game are decent. You can abuse her lack of mobility and can CC her when her Q or E is on cooldown.”
N0ZOMI says “Good Lux can be annoying on lane. Dont get stunned, land your stun and she's pretty much dead. Squishy af + low mobility but good disengage.”
SawyerNelson says “Lux has long range poke with arcane comet, or better trading tools short range when they run after shock, you have to abuse the all in factor if they play at range, or use your poke advantage by maxing Q when they run after shock.”
NirvanaBunny says “Lux has a strong poke with her E and passive, but she's squishy. Her mana-cost for her abilities makes her run out of mana fast, and her cooldowns early game are decent. You can abuse her lack of mobility and can CC her when her Q or E is on cooldown.”
Kon x says “she can root you when ever your dashing with your adc & can stop your knock up by rooting you you may dash but not knock them up so don't get rooted :>”
SawyerNelson says “A Good lux mid is actually almost unplayable for thresh. She out ranges you by a ton. If you can catch her out on vision or by baiting objectives it's the best way to take her out. But don't try for aggressive hooks in an aram situation against her or she will Q and her team / she will kill you.”
Yukkine says “Like that fallen angel lady, but with the power to kill you outright if you ever get rooted. Go play some Dark Souls and learn to dodge.”
Enfurnal says “Lux is a broken blond chick. Early game if she is aggressive, she will continuously E you to poke you out. Her Q can root up to two champion/minion/monster in the game. If she hits a Q on you expect 1/4 of your HP gone early game. Late game... You could potentially be 7 hp after that simple combo. As long as you can dodge her Q... She can't do much to you because her combo is Q E R. She still can kill you if you keep getting poked out by E.”
NocUout says “Very hard matchup, if she gets ahead she will easily one shot combo you, just play safe and bait her Q before going in, as she is still very squishy. ”
AkemiSen says “Lux support is an EXTREMELY easy matchup for Kayle even when played well. Her W helps sustain all the poke and her R prevents the lane rom snowballying out of control at every stage of the game which is great. Her Abilities are really telegraphed too.”
LiliGwen says “As this build require you to get close to your ally to shield them, it would be unwise to take these because of her light binding. It would then root you both.”
Adauchi says “I list this as a Major threat to more of a lower elo, where the lux pick can overwhelm you with the hard to predict CC.
In higher elo games, if you know how to dodge skill shots, this will be a piece of cake.”
Rasta Da Masta says “This matchup is hard for 3 reasons: 1, she has as much range as you. 2, she can actually 100-0 you and your partner with a full combo. 3, A late boots arrival means dodging is hard. Better bring your happy feed & hope for ganks!”
LuxIsMyCrush says “not really a threat as long as you juke around her spells, most of times she will shot the E behind you or your adc so just walk forward should be enough.”
Jeroen R8 says “Dodge her skillshots and engage when her Q is on CD. Lux has no escape options other than CC'ing you and shielding herself. Getting hit by her Q can lead to extremely bad trades or even death.”
Tipurrs says “She will poke you for days with her E if she's really aggressive. She outranges you and has a shield. Very annoying matchup. Wait for her to use her q and e then engage her.”
Saecriru says “Neeko and Lux go even in this match up so you can play either aggressive or passive in this lane, its really up to you. Just try not to get snared.”
DGNNYOmega says “Lux's crowd control can be a pain, but you are only rooted. Lux or her ADC will likely get aggressive towards you once you are rooted, making it easy to charm them. The same goes for Morgana and Neeko.”
I love Lun Lun says “Lux is an AP support with a root and damages.She is strong but her main poking spell is E.If we can dodge it we pretty much won game because we can poke her back and we can outheal her burst in early stages.Late game she is strong but again we can save our Allies since our ULT got stronger.”
TurnDaBeatAround says “Lux sucks to fight against. Her range is so strong for so many of her abilities. If you don't feed her early kills, you'll be fine mid/late game. If you do . . . ”
Synk1904 says “Has a lot of damage and a lot more range than you, she can shield so you can't kill her that easy if you get close to her. If you have low hp don't stay near her and recall or hide as fast as you can.”
Zefirez says “These days you can't go into a brush looking for some berries without stepping into one of these...
Ok here's the plan:
you grab cleanse, and anti-kite runes i provided. When she uses up her E (the aoe slow field) you run at her like a wild bear for a full engage. If she snares you with q, insta-cleanse and show her who's the bigger bear! If she flashes - you won, cleanse has lower cd then flash. And jungler will be most pleased.
Just keep in mind to avoid lining up with adc. It'll suck if you engage, while adc is still snared miles behind you!”
Autoswitched says “simple matchup, windwall her q, use your e to dodge her e, or just avoid it. You can easily outfarm and zone her away from creeps, you also out damage her, and the only real way for her to win is either, you missplay, or you get camped.”
SpicySkelleton says “I've put lux in major instead of Extreme because you can still win even if she's a bit fed. Her stuns and slows can be annoying but easy to dodge if you use your W, however she'll most likely point it at your adc instead of you, try to get you and your adc behind your minions to adsorb her attacks and when there's not any obstacles, you can grab her and finish her off. Her ult can be pretty crazy so try to make sure she cant build AP while you build some extra MR.”
undeadsoldiers says “Lux will mainly poke you with her E. Try to stay a little ways behind your wave so she can't hit Q or E.
You can push her pretty hard as her E is her only waveclear (unless you get a crazy Lux who uses R to nuke a wave!).
If you manage to catch Lux with a bubble, it's bye-bye blondie.
A common misconception is that you can counter her by dodging her Q, but you should know, a good Lux never throws out her Q without being 90-96% sure it will land. Her Q is not a stun, it's a root, so you are able to cast, don't just stand there and do nothing.
Suggested: Heal or Barrier”
macspam says “Irritating matchup, buy boots and some early MR to counter her E poke. Cleanse is a good option, but keep in mind she just has a root not a stun so you can still cast spells even if she hits it. Try and use stopwatch if she roots you to dodge her ult. ”
GeneralJ0hn27 says “She has a difficult laning phase with her very long range poke, However, if you do see her use Q or E go in, have your finger on spell shield to block her Q. In the event you do get rooted use spell shield to block her R.
”
BreathlesSx says “Not really a thread. She does outscale you late game if you are behind but if you don't get in her spells too often you should be fine.”
Great President says “Toxiccc.If you want stay alive dodge her q.When she's 6 she will destroy you and your adc.If you want kill lux, dodge her q and e grab her with your q.Then stun her with your e and keep fighting. In teamfights she'll try destroy everyone with her e and r. If lux fed, focus her in teamfights.”
Fyiree says “DO NOT PLAY INTO A MID LANE LUX AS DIANA.
A good lux will consistently root you, and out trade you, IF you can survive to lvl 6 and dodge most of her Q's, then you can 1 shot combo her, but that relies on her being bad, not you being good.”

Tips Against Lux in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
GAMING ACADEMY says “You should be able to build a significant lead before level 6 against Lux, but after she hits 6, she can use her ultimate to clear waves and neutralize your pressure. Be sure to rush Tier 2 boots to help dodge more of her skillshots.”
v0ltage38 says “Bone plating + scaling HP. Just a bunch of skillshots. Boots first back, build T2 AFTER Catalyst. Swifties are nice, Merc's if needed. Depending on the Lux, they will either play very aggro OR just clear waves from across the map. If aggro, you can easily set up a gank with jungle due to her being immobile. If the Lux is perma shoving waves, you can sit back, farm under turret and wait for a gank. Either way, Lux will have shove until you get some mana. Play safe and scale. Lux has almost zero pressure on your sidelane other than maybe her ult. Kaenic is good vs her. ”
xumi_k says “Annoying. Don't let her root you. You can kill her lvl2. By kill on lvl 2 I always mean a stacked passive and landed E. You'll bully her out from lane pre 6. Wit's End and Mercs will make it significantly easier, but her root+ult can kill you or chunk a lot of damage. You caaaan by QSS, but...it's not worth it, only if they have another CC champs that annoy you. ”
Tamikaze says “[Fleet is a viable option here, I recommend Conqueror]
Lux can be a challenging lane for Azir if the Lux can land her Q. If she decides to use her Q on the wave that's your opportunity to dash in on her and DPS her down. Early boots helps with the kiting of her Q. ”
MattStyle says “Su poke puede ser molesto. Su Q es fácil de esquivar pero su E es relativamente difícil.
Nunca debería ser capaz de matarte antes de lvl 6.”
j4ss says “Poke against Poke, but she can't dash your W. Her W shield is useless, as she will only be able to shield the comet in most of the cases. She have zero sustain and statikk will just win every wave clear she have. forcing her to ult to push everytime basically. She's a free kill later on unless she gets zhonya's.”
Tatsurion says “hellspawn. one of the most annoying fucking matchups you can have.
Your constant autoattacking means you will move and stop a lot, she will hit her bomb on you over and over. god forbid you get rooted post 6. but you also cant deal with her pre 6. a cursed matchup.”
Coslan says “Lux is a incredibly annoying mage to lane against. And while your [W] - "Wild Spin" can actually block Lux's root. It can not do anything against her delayed explosion and her ult. Go poke or high burst.”
Vladmidir says “Pool her R and E if she roots you. Just dodge her abilites and run her down when they're on cooldown. Lux players have a combined total of 3 brain cells, in my opinion this matchup is easy if you dodge her root. ”
GreenReapers says “Any page viable.
Long Sword start. Taking cleanse to disable her only way to stop you is really good against better lux players.
Care for her early poke damage. If she doesnt get ahead you should be able to kill her @6 or your first item.
If you R good Lux players will q behind them to burst you. Play around her q cooldown, if she uses it to trade. You can also dodge it with W or R.”
support_diff says “Lux is one of the champions that are always strong in the meta (because if she wasn't they couldn't sell as much skins for her). She has a root that is somewhat easy to hit and a poke ability that is hard to miss, especially against short range ranged champions like Akshan. Because of your passive, it is even easier to hit. However, she is really squishy. Like really, really squishy. If she gets any crowd control on her, she is basically dead. Sadly, you don't have any. Poke her with your Q and focus on cs. She isn't exceptionally strong at any point of the game, but doesn't fall of either. Play passive and try to set up a gank as dumb trades can get you killed especially after level 6”
lesbianqueen says “Going against a good Lux can be an absolute nightmare. Any time you are in range to hit her with your abilities you are vulnerable to all of her spells. Even trying t o approach her wrong can get you killed. Once you have your Ult you can use it to dodge her spells, but lane pre 6 is very difficult. She outranges and outscales you and her root can be devastating to eat as Ahri.”
sick204 says “Respect Lux's poke and burst potential with her abilities, especially her E and R. Use Yasuo's E to dodge Lux's skill shots and minimize damage taken. Be cautious of Lux's crowd control with her Q and E, which can set up kills for her or her teammates. Utilize W to block Lux's Q and E in trades and team fights to reduce her damage output and crowd control potential. Engage on Lux when her abilities are on cooldown or when she's low on mana, as she can be vulnerable during these times. Consider building items like Mercury's Treads or Hexdrinker to mitigate Lux's crowd control and magic damage.”
otaliz says “Bait her Q and E and dodge her abilities. Stand behind at least two minions to block her Q. Lux's abilities have long cooldowns early game, so use this window to punish her. Level 6 she can use her ultimate to clear the wave, so be aware of that. Mercury's Treads is a good option against her. Look for roaming opportunities from level 6 onwards.”
michaliis says “Go Dorans Shield or Blade. Skill Macth up. Dorans Blade if you can dogde really good and plan to be aggresive. Really squishy. Get to her with Q3 and E. When you get to her she is basiclly dead.”
Laimaudeja says “[I would use the Summon Aery page in this lane, and start Doran's Ring.]
Lux has really strong trades, but it's still possible to gain the upper hand because your Q cooldown is significantly lower than her root and E, letting you be mildly more aggressive. Make sure to play around minions often, as her root only works on the first 2 targets hit, but staying too close to minions lets her get off high value E's that manage to hit both the wave and you. ”
OneTrickPeffa says “Pretty much any unmobile mage is going to be an easy matchup for fizz, since they can't dodge and neither can kill you, just be aware of her Q”
awawa says “Happy-Lucky-Shiny Lux can be a threat if you are bad at dodging. Her ult has about 30s CD, which means she can ult twice as often as u can.
Stand behind at least 2 minions so she cant Q stun you.”
ShokLoL says “Lux is a pretty strong laner with her heavy E poke. Do your best to dodge as many of these as possible and make sure not to get hit by a stray Q. Her cooldowns are quite long and her main trading tool, her E, is also her main form of waveclear before level 6. Try not to group up with the wave and if she does use E on the wave look to trade aggressively while still avoiding her Q. Merc treads can also be helpful for the movement speed, MR and tenacity. Overall you should win if you dodge some Es and punish her cooldowns well.”

She's also very gankable post 6. Overall it's a playable matchup but one you should avoid if you can.
”
Soft Headpats says “Dodgeball simulator. This lane is all about dodging skillshots, which is much easier to do if you rush T2 boots. Try to stand outside of your wave so that even if she hits you with E, she isn't pushing the wave at the same time.
At level 6, she'll often ult the second she lands a Q just to get you to low HP. Good Lux players will use their E to land Q, or even ult with just the E slow, so be wary of that. Her ult has a decently long cast time though, giving you an easy target to QW or even to full-combo if she's close enough. Keep in mind that you can't cancel her ult with EQ/EE once she starts casting it unless you kill her before it finishes.
She becomes an ult-bot in the mid/late-game, so be prepared to use WQ to help your team dodge her skillshots easier. ”
ShokLoL says “Against Lux you need to stand apart from the wave. If she uses E on you, try dodge it but worst case you will be able to get push over the wave and then harass her easier. If you want to be safe you can go merc treads in this matchup, otherwise be very careful being caught by a Q post 6 as you'll take a huge amount of damage.”

Deceiver_euw says “Lux early game is strong enough to fight LeBlanc 1v1 but she obviously dies to ganks easily. After 6 you cant punish this champ in lane 1v1 so it just becomes boring waveclearing which is fine, since Lux is not a scaling champ. Watch out for her traps after lvl6. She will usually hide in fog of war and look for long range bursts to instakill you or win lane so be ready to react.”
ShokLoL says “Against Lux you need to stand apart from the wave. If she uses E on you, try dodge it but worst case you will be able to get push over the wave and then harass her easier.

vSomnia says “Try to dodge every E she throws. When she misses Q you can look for all in trades. Sometimes you can trade when she missed E and has Q up if dodge it instantly after hitting E or you can dodge it with first E. If she hits Q you lose the lane. Your waveclear gets better so look to make plays around the map and get sidelane pressure.”
MasaruYoni says “If you are against a Lux prepare to get pokked a lot, the big problem of lux is the high dmg burst after 6, so you have to try to trade her early 6 to make her loose some cs, if you bait her Q you can go straight into her, if you are not confident use your E to dodge her Q and not getting oneshotted by her combo”
Kikife says “Since Lux only really has one ability that forms her engage, you must bait it out. Once her Q is on cooldown, engage with her and E once you see her E get released whilst Q is down to either move around it or brute force to your ability range.
Most Lux players will pre-emptively farm the wave with their low R cooldown ability then look for map opportunity to support objectives or roam for ganks. Be aware of this and counter gank, even if you have to sacrifice minions. If you can shut her down early, it's another champ that won't do much except provide a single stun for the team.”
vreiki says “Lux vai te bater demais e te mandar base muitas vezes. Tudo bem apanhar, mas não está tudo bem morrer. Vá base quando precisar e aguarde um gank. O burst está ultra perigoso nesse patch.”
freljordwhoree says “A good lux will make the lane unplayable. The early game is the most dangerous moment, her passive deals a lot of damage and you cant punish her properly. But your tf is better”
gaarrett says “When she throws out her E, walk forward. Lux players love tossing E at max range every time, I'll never understand it. Hold your E to dodge her Q, she will panic after the E misses and try and root you. Full combo and repeat this cycle until she decides to start holding Q or hitting E, whichever comes first. [4/5] ultimate, massive range AP laser that will almost always be up for you to take because Lux R has no cooldown. ”
SYROBE says “Lux is probably one of the few champs that can out range hwei at least to a significant amount. She can clear waves with her Ult and trades damage better in lane phase ”
MukiiBaa says “Very annoying blondie. Focus on pushing her away and being on her max range.
If she misplay she wont be punished hard unless jg can deal huge dmg or cc her longer
Her R is on lower cd so respect her ”
149Gray says “Her E is hard to dodge if she's good, just spam Q on the wave and dodge/pool her Q, once she hits lvl 6, she'll just ult the wave since it has no cd.”
XD001 says “Free lane. dodge as many skillshots as you can early and at level 6-11 just kill her on cooldown with your full rocketbelt combo. Shove waves mid and look for roams jg/top/bot. In the late game you can look to 1 shot Lux and other squishies through flanks. Be careful to not get CC chained.
Ekko outscales Lux.
take Elec + precision page”
ExodusBlue says “WE>EQ farm. Dodge her Q and stand on the side of minions minions to stay out of range of E. If she lands her Q, WE>EQ>QQ her when she walks closer to hit her full combo”
Axsanea says “[EN]
Is easy, the thing is if she wants you never touch her, cause' of her range, just don't let yourself to get poke a lot, and in the best opportunity or spot she miss-step you all-in and she will die, probably she will take barrier, so you will have to deal with it, but is easy, the thing is that, reach her.
[ES]
Es fácil, la cuestión es que si ella quiere nunca la tocas, debido a su rango, simplemente no te dejes pokear mucho, y en la mejor oportunidad o momento ella se malposicionara y si lo hace. muere, probablemente ella vaya con barrera, así que tendrás que lidiar con eso, pero es fácil, la cuestión es esa, "alcanzala"”
wundrew says “You can shunpo behind her when she uses Q, after that its an easy trade with ult or just WQ. Easy matchup, just dont get poked out early. You can ult while rooted.”
KazunaSan says “pas de mobilité, squishy, attention à son burst mais vous ne devriez pas avoir de mal à jouer la lane en early, ne vous laissez pas faire punir par son poke.”
FrostbiteMW says “So, so squishy. Poor lux. However don't get caught by her Q. If you do get caught late game you are basically dead if you don't get Zhonyas. Just harass her early”
FrostbiteMW says “Poke matchup - your spells are easier to hit tho, which makes it easy. She might have an advantage pre 6, but afterwards you should get stronger.”
FrostbiteMW says “Poke matchup - your spells are easier to hit tho, which makes it easy. She might have an advantage pre 6, but afterwards you should get stronger.”
FrostbiteMW says “Dont die early, farm up and scale - youre not beatable lategame. You can be aggresive early and try to build an advantage. After a few levels the poke will be annoying tho and you will suffer alot. Build boots fast and try to dodge as much as u can.”
Shinbae says “Не самый противный пик против Зои, но и не самый простой, её прямолинейные скиллы и тонна урона усложняет всю игру на всех фазах, однако такая же тонкая и зачастую открытая для энгейджа.
Это называется война в которой кто кого быстрее ваншотнет”
Desired was gone says “Easy matchup, take Fleet Footwork for sustain in lane. The key on this lane is to press W every time she combos and to use W for her Q if it's a guaranteed hit. Lux often exposes herself to combos with our ult, leading to an easy kill”
Hexeria says “[Not much of a threat. Dodge her Q and then engage her.] [She is super squishy and should die really quickly.] [Also, she will try to poke with her E, so try to walk towards her when she throws it and not away from her, because most Lux player, will always cast the E behind you.]”
Xoe_LOLTH says “I give her MAJOR-Threat because in lane phase she is stronger than you by her E the range is insanely she can poke you and when she 6 carefully to get her Q E R combo you might killed by her but don't worry if she get our sleep she is dead too”
j4ss says “Lux is just a problem in low elo, just rush Merc Threads and you'll be fine. She's a immobile mage so ask your jungler for ganks and kill her.”
Halkem says “She has really good laning vs you early and will look to poke you a lot. Try to get push without getting damaged too much. Use your voidlings so she has to choose between using spells on them or you.”
Iceyou says “Last extreme you can propably get is lux with barrier or tp . By now if you read the other extreme matchups you got the general idea . Of what you need to do . ”
The Milelator says “Lux is actually a small problem. Pre 6 you have prio and can do what ever you want. Try to kill her before she reaches 6. Once you have both your ulties, she will constantly push the wave with her ridiculous low cd ult and roam. You can kill the wave very fast and answer the roam. However she will never be able to kill you. ”
bloomer010 says “Lux heavily out-ranges you, which can be difficult for Veigar. If Luxis accompanied by a team of long-range champions, consider taking the Predator keystone rune to hunt them down. ”
WarwicksSimp says “She's usually gonna be unkillable because of her having barrier flash and her w. She pokes you out of lane heavily ontop of that. If she misjudges her damage and doesnt kill you when she q e r's you, you can likely kill her before she kills you with your own r. This is super skill dependent ”
Tokiyami says “Very annoying wave clear champ you can usually just run her down at lvl 6 just wait for her to use her one cc spell and then shes just dead for over extending. Survive her poke until you can get lvl 6.”
FlopQueenEra says “Lux has a significant range advantage over Sona. Lux's abilities, especially her (E) and (R), can hit Sona from a long distance, making it challenging for Sona to engage or trade effectively without taking substantial damage in return.”
Lindroganti says “She is annoying with how easy she can hit and root you. Block her ult. She has atrocious mana issues, so if you dodge a few times you're golden. She is stupidly easy to ult on to, once you're already behind her, she can't do anything.”
stormraided says “Avoid her stun, don't get poked out of lane, engage in fights only after she uses Q. All in 6 after if she's less than half and she used her abilities. If she's playing super safe just shove and roam level 6.”
support_diff says “Try to all in her when she wastes her Q on you, try to dodge it with your E and then reuse E to gap close her, she is really squishy. Keep your farm and gold income up”
Fuzzmonkey says “The most difficult part of this matchup is not get hit by her constant e's. Engage as soon as she used her snare and the fight is yours. Last thing to keep an eye on is keeping distance once she hits her e early. The auto attack after deals more damage then the E itself. ”
Wraithlander says “She can oneshot entire minion waves allowing her to roam and move to fights before you. Would advice maxing Q to somewhat match her wave clear. Trade with her only when Q is down and win the lane through dodging and baiting out her E damage.”
FlopQueenEra says “lux have more damage using dark harvest than you but oianna can still fight against Lux, but the outcome of the matchup can be influenced by various factors, including player skill and strategy, just sidestep her all skills and you can survive.
~I SUGGEST IS GO TO THE BUILD FOR ASSASSINS SECTION!”
sullyyylol says “A good lux is very oppressive. If you can get onto her with items you can kill her, but in lane shes just going to zone you off everything. Her W shield makes killing her in lane pretty hard.”
Zero macro says “Lux into Caitlyn is a general matchup of poke style, Thereby recommended for Caitlyn to hard shove early waves. Recommended to build vamp scepter into late bloodthirster + cleanse(escape lux snare combo)or ghost(escape gank situation + dodge + chase).”
tangerrine says “Personally, I hate playing against ALL Luxes. She can just outrange you and its just really unfair. Play comet into this one to be safe or if you are confident, you can try and use electrocute and catch up to lux to do huge burst damage. I perma-ban her support. ”
Zero macro says “Lux and Kog'Maw are both poke mages, Lux E is way easyier to hit in comparison and she can trade into Kog'Maw with her shielding very easily.. This is a very even matchup that is based on skillshots and wave push, Therefore Kog'Maw gains an edge later in the game with increased R range
Recommended to take teleport”
IggyBoom says “The lane is pretty boring since she just spammes E and waits to stop your W with her Q. Hard engage is possible but not really easy to setup.”
SatanicWren says “While she isnt great at killing you, she is great at annoying you just enough to make it annoying to farm, and not taking early kills can make it hard to get your full build quickly. She is annoying late game as well if you get hit by her Q”
freuio123 says “Lux ist hart no Joke du wirst outranged, outpushed und wenn sie Hände hat Q sie auf deine Ulti und du kannst das nicht Sidesteppen.
Lux ist mMn der 2. Beste Mage in Ahri.
Du hast keine Solo Kill Pressure, no Push, kannst kaum Roamen weil sie JEDE WAVE ULTET !
Mit Jungler killable ansonsten musst du sie outplayen, sachen Sidesteppen, ne Wave für roam droppen usw.
Hartes Matchup”
NickLeVlach says “WTF RIOT. Nerf this shit. She has 22 sec cooldown with R and 500 damage on level 6. Anyway. If she's playing with barrier, make sure that she used it (also make sure that she doesn't has neither W), and wait until her shield is down before deciding to burst her. Then, FLASH FOR THE FUCKING KILL. AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU PRESS IGNITE ALSO, THAT THINK MIGHTY HAS W AGAIN. ”
uwuimsocute says “Just a bad mage, her Champ does not belong into Midlane.
She can be quite annoying, but she should never have the opportunity to kill you.
If you are uncomfortable with this matchup, go for Cleanse.
Note - most likely Lux will push the wave and will not let you interact with her, so pay attention to have good CS since you will not ever match her waveclear.”
qkthr1 says “easy skillshots to dodge lol then punish her once she has no abilities. you can w out of literally all of them. and you can almost one shot her most of the time”
Anguish333 says “- Dodge her Spells
- Don't face check bushes, she can easly oneshot you
- If you know where everyone in enemy team is, you can camp on her in bush, she can check bushes with E so be careful with it
- Can rush Mercs if you have trouble with this matchup
- Shadowflame really good item vs her”
Painters says “She has more burst damage than you, but you have more DPS, so it's just more about who its more of their abilities. Dodge her snare, and you'll be good. If you get caught however, good luck.”
Jg_diff says “Doesn't really deal any damage early. Just make sure to have vision and don't get rooted by her Q, or you might end up killed by the enemy jungler.”
Lillmy says “If she's good she will not be in range of you to poke her. She also has stronger waveclear. Just chill and help sidelanes whenever and ask for ganks.”
Cryniu says “This match is like Xerath but you counter her burst combo very well. Focus on dodge her skills and if you are suffering use Mercury's treads. Keep your distance and poke only in key moments because she has more range than you.”
Anth0ny_Azir says “Skill Matchup. Won't lie annoying as fuck, but best advice try to dodge her SS's as much as possible and punish her with 2 soldiers drifting on her. Also she is immobile without flash so ask jg for help.”
South Z says “Lux is surprisingly not that hard to deal with despite her very high lane pressure: if she misses her Q, you can run her down. Or run her down anyway with a well-timed Cleanse.”
DaddyVladdy says “stand outside of the wave so she has to choose to pokes you or push wave.Kill her if she misses q.Dont interact that much with her otherwise.You outscale”
darkezmond says “Beware of her Q and E, wait for mistakes from her, W into her and wait until she spends all the skills, and then squeeze out your E and Q”
CitTheCat says “This is a hard matchup. She outranges you and she can poke you a lot with her E. The only way to win this matchup is to play safe and wait for the right opportunity to go in.”
BlakC1 says “She's major for the solo motive that she's fucking annoying. I recommend taking Cleanse into this specific matchup. Dodge her stuns and you should be good.”
AnxialSociety says “Aery manaflow transcendence scorch.
Impact choice.
Cleanse.
Merc treads into Verdant barrier rush.
She outpushes, and can kill you.
Farm lane and roam. (demat?)
She's basically a hard counter that doesn't care about killing you, but who absolutely can. ”
Deru says “Easy matchup since u just have to juke her q to make her unable to stop you from getting to her. You also shove and roam better than her before her 6 so do that.”
Deru says “Easy matchup since you just have to juke her Q to make her unable to stop you from getting to her. You also shove and roam better than her before her 6 so do that.”
MiniLuxi1 says “Keep your distance and stand passively, she can easily kill you with her skills with deceleration and immobilization, as well as pasivka on AA. Try to play through the windows - I passed the procast, try to catch and already win back, after which it is better to go to the distance again, so that she does not play for you. I'm not sure, but at the moments of its R (a large ray almost on the entire map), you can try to use W to survive this moment and go under the towers.”
StralekS says “You won't die 1v1 but can't win: Conqueror/ Resolve: vs Mages, Ignite + Flash, Doran Shield/ Dark Seal start. Play lane safely, farm, and when she wastes ability, punish her with all in combo. Full AP for higher win chances.”
WayOfTheWlnd says “She will E you, CC you, and then most important of all once she gets level 6, she is outfarming you at an alarming pace, I would perma ban lux in almost all your games.”
Mayuushii says “Has long range and annoying poke. Use W movespeed to avoid Q and E and try to farm or harass with Q if she steps up. Lvl 6 you can go in but avoid getting hit by her Q and you should be fine. R her R when applicable”
Samikin says “Somewhat-Threat.
Surprisingly, Lux is a hard matchup contrary to what most people believe. She has more range and punishes Zoe walking up with Q's really hard. Not to mention, her E is much easier to land and her R can clear the whole wave without interacting with Zoe, mitigating any risks. Lux is still a mage though, so she is still easily killable if you land a good sleep or if she walks up too far into Zoe's range.
Recommendation:
Electrocute (Inspiration w/ Buscuits + Cosmic Insight if you want instead of Manaflow + Scorch) rune page
Crown of the Shattered Queen + Lich Bane”
IIndico says “I wouldn't worry too much about mages, as long as you use your passive shield and E correctly they usually won't be difficult. If you can't do those things you'll have a hard time playing against them.”
YourDreamWaifuu says “[Runes: Electrocute]
[Item: Long Sword]
[Mythic: Prowler or Duskblade]
[Play pasive] [Just try to farm till 6 then you can instakill her] [Bait or dodge her Q!]”
TheAfricanDream says “Lux will completely out range you in lane, but she has to play the lane at her max range to win. Look for extended trades mid when you hit her with your E. Your Q cooldown is a lot shorter than her cooldowns so look to harass her if she misses her Q. Lux has no mobility spells so once you hit your E on her, she will have no escape except for binding you. If you can reliably dodge her Q, this matchup is very simple”
Cjtheawesome says “If you can simply dodge her E and Q combos, this is a fairly easy lane take as much cs as you can. post level 6 it just becomes a farming lane.”
BC1970 says “Lux outranges and outpokes you. Her burst is dangerous, specially after level 6. You should go barrier, and if you want an extra bit of protection go Crown or rush Banshee's. ”
Demonsedge90 says “With a root/slow and powerful ultimate at her disposal, Lux can make your life hard in the lane if you don't respect her skills. While she's not difficult to fight against, you must be mindful of her cooldowns and be sure to move around often.”
Atemporal says “Tenha cuidado com o nível 1 de Lux porque seu E + auto + Comet causará muito dano a você. Fique fora do alcance de ataque automático dela e você estará bem. Os jogadores de Lux geralmente não passarão do nível 1 de seus lacaios para enquanto você ficar para trás, ela não pode
realmente te cutucar. Quando você atinge o nível 2, você não quer pular nela, a menos que ela desperdice tanto Q e E por algum motivo. O Q CD de Lux é de 11 segundos, então mesmo que você troque com ela e force seu Q, ele basicamente estará de novo na próxima vez que você
combo ela. Não tenha medo de usar seu E para desviar do E dela, e sempre use E para desviar do Q dela se estiver prestes a acertar você. Lux é um campeão que você não deveria ser capaz de matar no início do jogo. Atordoá-la com um W é difícil porque ela vai te dar um Q
enquanto você está se movendo em direção ao seu W, e o escudo dela absorverá muito do seu dano. Concentre-se em empurrar as ondas, Lux luta com a agricultura sob a torre e você geralmente obterá uma liderança decente na fazenda apenas por afk empurrando-a constantemente. É também
super arriscado para Lux seguir seus roams, porque você pode estar se escondendo em um arbusto esperando por ela. Quando você sair da pista após um empurrão, preste atenção em como ela reage. Se ela correr cegamente para a selva para tentar segui-lo, mantenha isso
em mente para a próxima vez que você empurrar a onda e sair da pista. Você pode apenas conseguir uma morte grátis se ela se deparar com seu W. Lux lutará contra você se ela tiver que combiná-lo em uma pista lateral. Fazer um teamfighting normal contra ela é arriscado e
não é o ideal porque o Q dela pode atrapalhar você em lutas de equipe e seu escudo W é irritante ao tentar matar a linha de fundo. Jogue pista lateral,
e então teamfight flanqueando e conseguindo bons ângulos no time inimigo. Considere Merc Threads contra ela.
”
Simelodeon says “I: Ludens
R: Standard
S: Cleanse
Ihr Early Poke mit E ist ziemlich strong. Auch wenn der Gedanke ist dass man hinter Minions stehen sollte damit sie Q nicht trifft, ist es besser von ihnen weg zu stehen damit sie mit der E nicht auch gleichzeitig noch pushen kann. So kriegst du Pushadvantage was ihre n Poke negiert”
AriFr0mThe3nd says “The light bitch can become quite annoying but if you dodger her attacks and make sure she doesn't have her abilities, she is quite easy to kill. Also don't forget that her E has a very wide range and you can still attack her when you are rooted(!!).”
Amarusis says “Lux on mid
why
why again
Anyway if she dodge her Q you have chance to make trade. You want wait to late/mid game and then oneshot her in one second.”
SanyGame says “Same as Xerath and Brand, but more manageable. She can easily use [E]>[AA] to destroy your turrets, place them far apart as she needs a lot of mana to destroy them one by one. Remember that her [Q] can only hit two targets, so try to stick to the turrets and minions. Early boots and some sustain are recommended, as well as Stopwatch and Nullifying Orb if you're struggling.”
RuchaczSzmat69 says “She has annoying poke but she cant really burst you if you play around your W beacuse, you can get out of her stun and avoid getting ulted. Dont let her proc her passive too often, after prowlers you shit on her.”
Spoomk says “fuck off fuck off fuck off. A good Lux will kick your teeth in and put them back in to do it again. Her abilities are free in terms of hitting and cooldown, you don't have much of a chance to deal with her. Go elsewhere.”
xblademojo says “Predator + Teleport / Ghost. She will perma push and throw spells at you.
Depending on how good she is, you might be able to kill her with Predator on your own. Start Corrupting Potion for sustain or Doran Ring to keep up with cs under turret.”
GoodMangoes2war says “Because early game is spent hard farming minions, lux's combos are particularly disruptive. Late game, if all goes well she's not as big of an issue. It's just a LOT easier to ban. Even Syndra is considerably easier to deal with.”
DixonTheGuideMaker says “Always make sure you’re stood behind at least 2 minions so she is unable to root you with her Light Binding(Q). If Lux uses her Q and it misses, use the cooldown of this ability to play aggressive as she will be unable to protect herself and prevent the all-in. Mitigate Lux’s E effectiveness by standing behind and not inside the minion wave. This will make her choose between using her Lucent Singularity(E) to poke with or to push with.”
Adamonias says “She's you but worse in every way. You outrange her and your abilites are better. Don't let her free auto you after she lands an ability thats the only way she outrades you. If you both land CC you win, bc you can still use ur other abilities while rooted. If she runs ign she's turbo trolling, most likely she runs barrier or tp to match you. Just care that her ult does hurt and is on a low cooldown. again if you're not confident you can run barrier , but i like TP to out tempo her and take free backs.”
DixonTheGuideMaker says “Always make sure you’re stood behind at least 2 minions so she is unable to root you with her Light Binding(Q).

SoftSeraph says “No surprise that Lux is here..
She outpokes you everytime, does a ton of damage and her root and slows can stop you from simply reaching her.
A good combo can tear her down, tho, but like Ahri, you mostly have to play around her mistakes and cooldowns.
Stay mindfull of her R incredibly fast R cooldown, as your E can absord it..”

Tears of fears says “Never stay close to your lane minions, she has to either E the minions, thus letting you punish her, or she'll try to E you, losing the cs, both outcomes are good for us”
SkyBanana says “Well if it isn't your twin Lux. You are basically the same champion but with different playstyle. Lux wants to burst her target(s) down with little counter play and has a lot of range zoning tools. Seraphine wants to lock down and burst the enemy team down and make sure they don't move for her performance. All in all since you are both the same champion it comes down to who can performs better or who can make the most plays.”
Hot Eboy Xerath says “Lux's E in the early laning phase is pretty much the same range as Xerath's poke so her harrass can be quite annoying early on. In the mid to late game, you can just spam ultimate her down to make up for it. Make sure to dodge her Q or you will die. ”
Xexzuz says “I'll just put this here. Any champ with CC you will do very well against for the most part. So just remember to time your E right and you can win trades really easily. ”

Kneecaps says “Careful for this speed camera as once she catches you speeding with her q, her ult snaps your license plate and you go straight to jail, unless its your first offense in which you might get a hefty warning at most. ”
TB Azir says “Xerath'tan sonra oynamaktan en çok nefret ettiğim 2. matchup. İyi bir Lux oyuncusu ormancı faktörü işin içinde yokken birebirde Azir'e lanede güzel güzel acı çektirebiliyor. Xerath banlamayacağım zamanlar(yani normalde direk perma ban ama support'umuz Xerath alacaksa) genelde Lux banlıyorum. Bu matchup'ı mutlaka ormancınızla oynamanızı tavsiye ediyorum çünkü karşınızdaki iyi bir Lux oyuncusuysa matchup'ın tek çıkış yolu adamın Q'larını ormancınızın punishlemesi yani Lux, lane'in ortasında veya sizin kulenize yakın bir yerde Q kullandığı zaman flash'ını kaybetmeli, flash'ı yoksa da ölmeli. Yani bir nevi Syndra'nın E'sini punishlemek gibi bir şey, hatta aynısı. Aksi takdirde Q'ları punishlenmeyen iyi bir Lux, lanede sizi kusturana kadar pokelayabilir🤮 ''Ee abi ormancım midi tamamen ignoreluyor ve karşımdaki de iyi bir Lux oyuncusu ben napıcam?'' diyorsanız: (öncelikle dua edin Allah sabır versin :D) Ayağı çabuk girip farmlayarak ölmemeye çalışın, adamın Lux'ı iyiyse başka bir seçeneğiniz yok zaten :D”
NegativePhoenix says “Iffy situation. Her E is the most annoying thing but if you can dodge her Q stun it isn't horrible. Just know she's gonna outburst you in a 1v1 so be careful if she manages to land her abilities.”
Lightning_Ranger221100 says “Both of you are pokey/bursty caster mages, you guys either win or lose some. Try doing as many of her spells as you can with e. If she pokes you, heal with w and wait for an opening. Or you know, just have a tank go in for you.”
Body Those Fools says “Do your best to dodge her E poke. You HAVE to dodge her Qs or you will get chunked, have to blow flash, or die. You can take Cleanse in this matchup if you're not too confident. Farm until Lost Chapter then you can poke her down over and over. You can all-in her once you're level 6 when she wastes Q if shes around 50% HP. Banshee's Veil makes it easier to all-in her to negate her snare so it's a great buy. If the enemy team has other strong Ults, you can go Zhonya's Hourglass to go into stasis to dodge them or Lux Ult if you get snared.”
Bughans says “A good lux will NOT let you farm. Also lux is so fucking broken like seriously riot 30 second cooldown on an ability that can singlehandedly oneshot squishies???
Your passive shield makes this not the worst in laning phase, just focus on playing very very safe and picking up what little farm she lets you.”
Bunan says “First Strike-Magical Footwear- Futures Market-Cosmic Insight-Second Wind - Unflinching
AH AP MR
Sapphire Crystall Refillable
FLASH TP
Q->E->W
Q max->W->E
Stay away from minions so she cant E you at the same time
If she wastes Q(11s CD) engage
Good luxes will hold Q
Use E to dodge E/Q
Combo E2 with R
Zhonyas second (R)
R 6/10 Good with CC (easy to dodge)”
KayyeN says “Not very hard. Dodge her Q and try avoiding her E as much as possible. You won't really be able to reach her often but she's not a big threat to you either. Most annoying thing is probably her low R cooldown, which lets her push waves very fast, thus punishing you harder for roams.”
Edex_StarsUpYourASol says “Just trade her, you win laning phase easily when you are under minions and roaming becomes a breeze. Just be mindful that Lux can still roam and that if she gets a kill, she will always be a sore playing in the backlines like Ziggs.
Mid to late is also not an issue as she struggles to do the damage necessary compared to Ziggs, and doesn't do enough utility like Morgana. ”
OSG Rewynd says “If lux randomly throws Q, this lane is free. If she holds onto it, you can't really kill her ever. Let her shove into you and hit your W's or call for ganks.”
jesterjedi93 says “This is one of the 5-6 champs that if played correctly, you will never get close to. BUT if she misses her Q, you can go in for a trade and punish her for that.”
Super08131208 says “Lux will poke you from base. If a Lux plays safe, you can't kill her. At level 6, you can try to dive her, but that is if you can dodge her stun. If the Lux plays super safe and stays under tower, just shove and roam. Give her a reason to leave her tower.

Zoose says “This will be a poke battle. Avoid her auto attacks if you're marked, but be ready to W combo her if she gets close. Many luxs take barrier, so anytime you try to dive her, take her W shield and barrier into account, plus her potential to CC you under tower. She is all skillshots so early boots will help to dodge them. Take runes with extra HP and mana sustain.”
basrty1p says “Just dodge her Q and E, she'll be hard time to fight you.
You DPS damage will be outscale her in mid-late game since your Worked Ground Q can slow and kill her quickly before she can do anything.”
DabiDabi says “Lux will poke you from base. If a Lux plays safe, you can't kill her. At level 6, you can try to dive her, but that is if you can dodge her stun. If the Lux plays super safe and stays under tower, just shove and roam. Give her a reason to leave her tower.”
Esrucnl says “She has no mobility at all so hitting your combo on her should be easy.
Make sure you dodge her Q though or else she can burst you down. Moment u dodge her Q with movement or E you should be fine though.
If she does the ''i will stay under turret all game and just clear wave'' you either roam to get kills and leave her there or freeze and ask your jungler to come and abuse the no mobility mage!”
Azurio says “You just have to dodge her Q. Smoke her and E next to her while she is blinded, just pay attention to her burst level 6 and if she has barrier.”
SKRELAX says “Please no. No. NO. NO. Her threat level isnt very high, her poke is just unbearable to go against. You can try to not take any dmg by Eing the minions to take at least some farm, or try to juke her spells (Her spell dmg and aa dmg is pretty nasty in lane, be aware). After six, the lane goes into a state where if she hits you with a root (q) you're done for.”
ddieguito_es says “She's a more annoying matchup than a big problem. Don't be scared to try hitting your Qs and avoid getting stunned. She can't kill you in lane if you play decently. You can get a Doran's Shield if you're getting annoyed.”
beansoce says “Boots are very strong in this matchup to be able to dodge her abilties, try and not stand on the wave because she'll just e the wave and poke you. If she has barrier pre much impossible to kill her so just afk farm.”
