Lux

Who counters her, straight up?

Sure, if you can manage to get a gap-close she has to outplay you, but the range on all her abilities is, i think, the furthest in the game other than globals.

She seems like one of the safest champs to play if you can land your skillshots.

I consider her the most toxic champ in the game. Teemo doesn't even compare to a good Lux player.

We talking about the champion with absolutely no mobility & gets hard-countered by asssassins?

K....

What?

It's true.

Anyone that disagrees is either a Lux player or they've yet to experience the pain of a well played Lux. She is every non-assassin melee's worst nightmare, especially the ones without gap closers.

I think nerfing or removing item 3165 would be a good start towards making Lux more fair to play against. She should not be allowed to shut down sustain from that range.

Why would you pick a short ranged mage against lux in the first place? That's like saying you should pick orianna into yasuo. You just don't.

I'm not really talking about the laning phase. I'm talking skirmishes and teamfights, where Lux shines.

Honestly she is so squishy.

Play ANY midlaner with burst and dodge her q and you cannot lose lane...

However she will still scale retarded into late game and One Shot two of your carries with a combo....

But you wanted to know who....IN LANE literally EVERYONE!!! lol

Nobody can touch her in lane, her ability ranges are so far, she can farm with her E and under tower...

How bad are these Lux players you guys have been playing against?

And you're forgetting that her E early game does like no damage since its like 60% AP 80 base dmg on a double digit cooldown, and costs like 90 mana at level 1, and only gets higher. Meanwhile Zed shadow Q....

You get the E off on minions and her passive almost lets her one shot them. Even if she is pushed to tower, farming under it is not difficult.

Then you'd be contradicting yourself since she has to put herself into 550 range. You just said she can just throw E's at a huge range. Guess it's not so right?

Once it's at level 3-4, depending on AP you have, you can. I was suggesting lower levels if you are being pushed in.

I'm thinking maybe just nerf her range or AP ratio/scaling. She aleady has a root that does massive dmg, an aoe slow that does and a 1/2 map laser beam that does huge dmg.

Nerfing the anti-sustain item will hurt more than just her.

The laser isn't 1/2 the map... Do people just randomly scream nerf and not know what they're talking about? lmao It's 3340 range. It's apporixmately 1/6 of summoners rift diagonally.

I was exaggerating for emphasis. You are missing the point.
