Lux needs a longer CD on her Ult

SeargentAnus··12 votes·654 views

30s with 40% CDR (which is extremely easy to get on a mage and still hit ~800 AP at late game) makes her broken. A longer CD on her Ult is needed to make her balanced at all points in the game. More like 100/85/65 from 80/65/50

3 Lux games out of like 150. I don't think that makes it a main.

I personally find Lux extremely easy to play around. Having that high of a winrate with +15% play rate though is cause for alarm.

It's actually not easy to get 40% cdr on mages without runes. Cooldown items aren't in the best spot for mages right now, which is why a lot of mid mages rush the sp00ky ghosts.

CDR runes are the best runes anyways.

Not always. There are situations where you need to use MR runes, for example, against LeBlanc, which is a dangerous opponent to face in lane if you are not prepared to survive against her.

I personally like to go Frost Queens + Morello + Ionian Boots on Lux to reach the max 40% CDR and have as much mana regeneration as Mundo has health regeneration, allowing me to spam Lux's spells. The lack of magic penetration from Sorcerer's Shoes is compensated by purchasing a Void Staff.

I tend to agree.

Lux ult CD is too low.

Ahri, Zed and Lux are all about played the same and have the same win rate, more or less.

Leblanc has a similar play rate but doesn't win nearly as much. Ahri and Zed probably help account for that.

welcome to high elo where these are rushed by at least 2/5 3/5 of the champions on the enemy team and people actually arent bronzies and understand that if they keep track of lux CD she is a free divable kill and dont just build 6 damage items

Ahri item 3001 ahri dodges your entire kit with 4 flashs then kills you with autotargeted damage or zones you from entire teamfight

Alistar flashs over a wall and knocks you out of your turret

Diana rushs item 3001 so you do 300 damage to her with your entire full combo and turret dives you during a deep jungler gank
