What makes Lucian dangerous
Lucian double-taps with his passive after every ability, dashes with E to reposition, fires a piercing Q, and unloads a barrage ultimate. In the early game he out-trades almost anyone; his goal is to snowball the lane before his damage falls off.
How to play against Lucian
- 1Scale past him: he is weakest in the late game, so survive lane and out-scale.
- 2Don't trade into his passive; step back after he uses an ability to deny the double shot.
- 3Punish his E cooldown — after he dashes he is briefly stuck and killable.
- 4Sustain his poke and avoid his Q line to blunt his lane bully phase.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Falls off hard in the late game.
- ✓Short range for a marksman; vulnerable to longer-range poke.
- ✓Needs a peel or engage support; struggles alone into hard CC.
- ✓Mana-hungry when spamming his combo.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Lucian's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
圣光银弹每使用一个技能时,卢锡安的下次普通攻击都会连射2次。当卢锡安从另一位友军处获得治疗或护盾、或者有一名附近的敌方英雄被定身时,他的下2次普通攻击造成额外魔法伤害。
Strong: fires a second shot after every ability, doubling his trade damage. Weak: step back after he casts to deny the second shot's value.
Q
透体圣光卢锡安射出一束穿透性的圣光穿过他的目标。
Strong: a piercing line that pokes through minions. Weak: easy to block with the minion wave — stand behind creeps to eat none of it.
W
热诚烈弹卢锡安发射一个会呈星形爆炸的飞弹,标记并暂时显形敌人。在卢锡安攻击被标记的敌人时,会获得移动速度加成。
Strong: marks you and grants him move speed for the chase. Weak: a slow skillshot — dodge it to deny the speed and his engage.
E
冷酷追击卢锡安冲刺一小段距离。【圣光银弹】的攻击会减少【冷酷追击】的冷却时间。
Strong: a dash that resets when he hits marked targets, keeping him slippery. Weak: after it he's briefly grounded — collapse in that moment.
R
圣枪洗礼卢锡安的武器释放出大量的子弹。
Strong: a barrage of shots that shreds a target in seconds. Weak: he stands still and fires in one direction — dash aside or block with a body.
Itemization
Survive his early spike and out-scale. Long-range poke and hard CC in lane blunt him; late game, health and armor make his falloff decisive.
