The reason Lucian cant be balanced.

Skorch··1 votes·324 views

His playrate. With a playrate that high, Lucian being ANY sort of competent will cause his playrate to skyrocket, which in turn causes its own issues.

The issue is unless you rework Lucian to make him less fun, and more clunky (which in all honesty isnt a good way to balance) He will ALWAYS be a problem.

People assume that playrate is the main contender behind winrate in balance. But the issue with that is some champions just attract more people. 53% winrate with a 51% pickrate isnt actually that bad.

Play Morgana or Blitzcrank , and do nothing but roam.

Or do something like Trundle support and do nothing but split late game.

Or duo with a friend and do Kassadin Cassiopeia bot. Or Talon Katarina bot. (May have to do more than duo depending on how good you get at it to reduce flame.

What i usually do to keep boring bot lane adc games spicy.
