But not good on Lucian Jhin and Varus anymore? I'm not entirely sure I understand why MF is thr only who came out of the change with the same build.

Because her ult is still nuts with item 3071

Because the 3 you listed used flatpen for the earlygame power but didn't scale that great into late with it. MF got early power and lategame scaleing because she's prettymuch all about getting of a good ult, and the ult scales heaviily with ad and arpen and only very little with crit and not at all with anything else. With lethality builts, her ult at fullgear reaches 5-6k damage, and vs anyone without armor items that will be truedamage. Lucian and Jhin still get alot power on their ults, but unlike MFs ult, they only deal singletarget and can get bodyblocked by the frontline that doesn't care that much about lethality, and Varus only really boosts his Q poke with that built, which falls of once tanks bulk up and carries get lifesteal. They all get big issues applying their damage to the backline later on in teamfights while also lacking dps to get through the frontline. MF can deal enough damage with her ult alone to simply evaporize the entire enemie team if they get cought by it for the full duration, squishys often die in just 1-2sec of it, so her lack of singletarget dps with those builts doesn't matter alot.

Crit isn't a great stat on MF just because a lot her damage comes from her caster nature as an ADC, similar to Ez. As an ADC caster, her abilities are what deals the damage, not really her autos. She deals massive physical damage with abilities, and lethality just ups that damage and helps it scale better than AS and crit.
