@Riot Lucian Buff

I really like Lucian but I feel like he's kind of in an awkward spot right now where he can go from being good or being really bad. I believe that the majority of this has to do with his ult. Its kind of "meh" at the moment and it is quite difficult to land with how much mobility champions have these days. Although it's not MissFortune level bad, it needs to be more rewarding when you hit the same target multiple times.

I have two suggestions for this:

  1. 15% Armour pen on his ult. The damage does not have to be increased but it does help alot against tanks that will sit in front of your ult and take no damage at all from a full channel.

  2. Scaling damage per every 4 successful hits. This will promote landing every shot in order to make the damage count. If a bullet misses, then the counter starts from 0 again so one must be consistent throughout the channel.

I know Riot wont do any changes before Worlds because this might change the game quite a bit, I do hope that this buff is considered for the pre-season. . . . Edit: MF's kit needs a rework that Riot said they would look into, however that is not the point of this post.

I agree. What I also find silly is how little damage the ult does compared to his auto attacks. I mean if I 1v1 vayne and ult her within auto attack range, I should be able to do just as much damage. It is an ult after all. There should be more of a reason to use it late game other than "my target is out of range or to farm".

Or reduce the incredibly high cooldown they gave it. Out of all the ults, the culling doesn't deserve 110 CD.

They gave it that cooldown because people kept using the ult to farm. And that the problem, the ult tends to be so useless, people prefer to farm with it

I really like those ideas. If that makes Lucian too OP, they can always nerf another section of his kit.

He doesn't need buffs.

Maybe something like this:

The attacks from Lucian's ult shred 2% of the enemy's armor for 3 seconds, stacking up to 10 times.

Each subsequent attack on the same target from his ult deals 5% increased damage, up to 75%.
