Lux is an absolutely toxic champion

Burnt Light··2 votes·1,944 views

Whoever thought of this champion obviously had trolling in mind. And I am mainly talking about her ultimate.

Her ultimate has got to be the most easiest thing to land since its hitbox is bigger than its actual animation and the cooldown of her ultimate is ridiculously low. I would have to revolve my build around Lux since if you get caught, you're either gonna lose half or all your health if you're a squishy. To focus her is difficult since her Q allows for a double stun if someone happens to stand behind her or a minion, and she if she's behind, she can still offer enough burst damage, stuns, and a anti-ignite shield to provide secondary support. I honestly hate this champion, I also hate the fact that the hitbox of her ultimate has not been looked at for years, and now that she's getting a skin, I'm gonna have to deal with a lot of them.

Guess it's 1st build Banshee for now on. Smh

What I'm reading: Omg I got wrecked by Lux. The most balanced mid laner in this game, who has no dash or mobility, and who's only real good damage comes from landing a high mana cost combo starting with a super slow snare thats easily avoidable. Its not that I'm unskilled...its the champ who beat me is OP!

Coming from the guy that wants Zed nerfed? Lol, you're a bloody hypocrite and no better than OP.

The difference being that Zed kit is unhealthy and shitty to fight against (while simultaneously sometimes working against himself) while Lux has shitty mobility (with bad escapes), high mana costs, has to proc her passive within aa range, susceptible to ganks, the list goes on. Zed has a safe laning phase while being able to out-sustain her.

That's about it for whenever anyone complains about any champ that's been around for a while. lol

Strangely enough, when I am playing mid and see an enemy Lux, I think: "Hey, this will be a fun skill-based matchup against a fair and balanced enemy with clear strengths and weaknesses."

Stun? Lux has a snare mate.

Lux is the epitome of counter play son. She needs buffs not nerfs

I don't think theres a better example of a healthier champion than Lux.

Skillshot stuns so you can stand behind minions or dodge, a visible shield that's not too OP and doesn't do damage to you, an aoe spell that has visible red lines so you know when it can effect you, her ult doesn't have global range but she still has the ability to make nice plays with it which is fair, but over using it means in a team fight you have no execute or it does no damage.

Everything she does has counterplay but Lux players have a fair kit that rewards skill, Lux is honestly one of the few champs you can lose to and say, "Yeah that was probably my fault" to instead of maybe being fairly upset that you just got dove under tower and the opponent had no consequence for it like many midlaners.

Lux is fair.

actually to avoid lux's skillshot snare, you need to be behind 2 minions as it snares the first 2 enemies in the shot line. but i agree with the rest of it :)

LOL little Luxy is one of the most balanced champions in the game. Clear strengths (mid-range damage dealer) and clear weaknesses (gets ripped apart in close quarters) and if you can't anticipate her ult (it is quite readable) then you shouldn't be playing league. If her ult killed you over a wall, then props to her for maintaining good ward coverage and shame on you for being careless regarding vision.

You would love fighting xerath since he would be doing it every few seconds i guess...

Instead of ducking her Ult you should have bobbed and weaved...and her Q is a root not a stun...
