The third most picked mid laner (And the most sucessful) in Plat+ , behind Zed

Long range poke Long range burst Hard AoE CC on a basic skill AoE slow AoE AP Scaling double shield Longest AoE Nuke in the game 54% Win Ratio 15% Play Rate Top Thunderlord's abuser Top Luden's Echo abuser Good laning phase Good teamfight Good objetive control Good siege Good antisiege Good late game assasin Safest mid laner in the game. Has a shield in case someone gets to her One of the reasons CDR is not as easily to obtain for midlaners

Need. To. Say. More?

BUT SHE HAZ NO DASH SO SHEZ LE BALANCE ECKS DEE~!1!1oNE!1!11!!!!!!

SecretlolzFeb 8, 20162 votes

I know right? It's like Lee is underpowered because he has a skillshot And Vayne is balanced because she has to autoatack 3 times

I feel like they should nerf the shield so when you do finally get to her, she actually takes damage

SecretlolzFeb 8, 20162 votes

They should remove the double dip on the shield, AKA, can't be applied 2 times Q buff reverted (Half snare time to second target) E Detonates in 1,5 seconds if not reactivated R Can't proc passive

All of that at once would murder her.

Or, ya know, you could just upvote the 100s of other threads about this. Tbh it's spam at this point.

Top Thunderlord's abuser Top Luden's Echo abuser

you make it sound like the kestone (or the item for that matter) wasnt designed for champions like her. i also question your sources on her being the top "abuser" of the mastery.

its like calling mages absusers of deathcap.

and between all that crap you didnt mention one of the larger problems in this game right now. that every ap mid laner is using item 3092 which happens to have a very strong synergy with her kit and adds to her safety in lane, aswell as allows her to set up laser snipes with the ghost reveal and the slow.

its my opinion that frost queens is the main reason shes beating ad assassins right now. its easy to sniff out an ambush, a jungle gank and self peel with the item. it also gives her a gigantic gold advantage over her opponent. i tried it myself and this thing beats assassins singlehandedly.

the first thing that needs to be done is to make changes to frost queens, so it stays a dedicated support item.

theyre also working on duskblade which is going to buff ad assassins. so her winrate is definitely going to take a hit from that.

Highest picked midlaner.

CreationFlawFeb 8, 20161 votes

They could just make her passive only proc'd by autos. Reduce that burst damage on a long range siege mage, amirite?

DON'T HURT MY LUX :C.

Do something about FQC so it isn't good for midlaners
Do something about thunderlord's decree. The extra flat damage is honestly TOO valuable for Lux's combo.
AP items costs were already increased.
Duskblade will help her counters
Lux is getting attention because of pick in LCS and high winrate

You can break my Sona, you can kill my Soraka, you can nerf my Leona, you can take away my Malzahar, Zyra and Taric, but nerfing Lux into the ground is just going to far!

I don't know what you're talking about, Lux has an awful laning phase. Her E costs a ton of mana, has a reasonably long CD, is her main form of harass, and won't one shot caster minions which forces her to aa them, putting her in a very dangerous position. Since she's ridiculously squishy and has no mobility. I absolutely hate hate HATE her laning phase.

And Ooooooh, 15% play rate and 54% win rate. Meanwhile Ezreal and Lucian and over 35 and 40% play rates with 50% win rate. But no, lets nerf Lux because she's clearly the biggest problem.

Quick, Janna is at 18% play rate and 54% win rate! Let's nerf Janna too!

Lux is higher pick rate and win rate than Janna.

Zorae42Feb 8, 20161 votes

In what world is 15>18???? And yeah, 54.2 >54.01. However, that's a pretty small difference. Janna is clearly more toxic than Lux and needs the nerf waay more... Or they're both healthy and just doing slightly above average because the current meta favors them and win rate/play rate isn't really that big of a deal unless they're huge outliers. Neither of which Janna or Lux are.

Nice job ignoring Ezreal and Lucian who are legitimately crowding out other ADCs in order to complain about someone with less than half their play rate.
