How to beat Lux

Common role: Mid / Support

A long-range mage who roots you with a bind and executes with a huge laser.

What makes Lux dangerous

Lux binds you from long range with her Q (a two-target root), pokes and shields, and her point-and-click-detonated ultimate is a huge laser that bursts you down once her passive and combo line up. She's squishy and immobile, but her root-into-full-combo can delete a carry from screens away.

How to play against Lux

• 1Dodge her Q bind — it's a slow skillshot and the setup for all her damage. Stand behind minions and sidestep it; no root, no combo.
• 2She's immobile with no escape. Assassins and hard engage punish her hard once her Q is on cooldown.
• 3Her shield (W) protects her lane; don't waste all-in resources into it. Trade when her shield and Q are down.
• 4Respect her ult range — she can snipe you low from a screen away. Don't sit at low health in a straight line from her.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓No mobility or escape — easy to dive.
• ✓Her burst needs the Q root to land first.
• ✓Squishy; hard CC and assassins delete her.
• ✓Skillshot-reliant — dodge Q and she's harmless.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Lux's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Aydınlanma

  Lux'ın hasar veren yetenekleri birkaç saniyeliğine hedefi enerjiyle yükler. Lux'ın bir sonraki saldırısı enerjiyi ateşler ve (Lux'ın seviyesine bağlı olarak) ilave büyü hasarı verir.

• Q
  Işık Bağı

  Lux en fazla iki rakip birimini bağlayan ve onlara hasar veren bir ışık küresi gönderir.

  Strong: a long-range two-target root — the setup for all her damage. Weak: a slow skillshot — stand behind minions and sidestep; no root, no combo.

• W
  Prizmatik Bariyer

  Lux değneğini fırlatır ve dokunduğu bütün dost hedeflerin etrafındaki ışığı bükerek, onların rakip hasarından korunmalarını sağlar.

• E
  Işık Patlaması

  Belli bir bölgeye, yakındaki rakipleri yavaşlatan tuhaf bir ışık gönderir. Lux ışığın patlamasını sağlayarak etki alanındaki rakiplere hasar verebilir.

• R
  Son Parıltı

  Lux enerji topladıktan sonra, etki alanında yakalanan bütün rakiplere hasar veren bir ışık huzmesi yollar. Bu, ayrıca Lux'ın pasif yeteneğini de tetikleyerek Aydınlanma dezavantajının süresini de yeniler.

  Strong: a huge point-and-click laser that snipes low targets across the map. Weak: it needs the Q root first — dodge Q and don't sit low in a straight line.

Itemization

Lux is AP burst. Magic resist (Mercury's Treads, an MR item) and a Banshee's Veil to block her Q bind answer her. Above all, dodge her Q — without the root she can't land her combo.
