I was playing Vel'koz today in ranked, and I was about 4 kills and 60 CS up on Lux. Suddenly, she finishes a few items and THREE SHOTS ME. (Edit: didn't include boots initially, but they play a factor as well) (Edit 2: She had like no CS and no kills at 33 minutes. Where the fuck did she get so many more items? OP edited to be accurate.)
I had: 
She had: 
What the fuck.
lol
you completed Liandry's at 44:27
by that time, Lux had a deathcap, in addition to Luden's, Morello, hourglass, and full sorc shoes.
would you like to edit your original post?
Lmfao that's impossible. Lux can't delete anyone with a full rotation unless she's ahead. 225% AP including her passive in a full rotation. Base damage total would be like 850 max. Assuming she had like 250 ap with those items+runesmasteries, it would only be doing like 1.4k at most. You had Chalice, and probably MR runes, and a liandrys. No fucking way you died without being ignited and autod like 3 more times with passive procs and more E's
Umm..Lux never got her AP Ratios changed. They only did a QOL buff on her. If you weren't complaining about her before the buffs, you shouldnt be complaining about her now
somehow i feel like there is information missing.
lux cant kill you with these items in one rotation. at least unless shes triggering her passive with auto attacks. you had extra mr and extra health.
even so, the thing people dont seem to understand for some reason is that pouring all their gold into damage doesnt increase your ability to survive (one would think thats obvious). what the fuck do you expect? if you build suishy enough to get killed by someone with 2 items then being ahead doesnt mean shit if you make a mistake. congratulations youll deal a lot more damage than her, but that doesnt mean shes not able to kill you.
Lux is disgustingly broken.
2 stuns.
aoe slow, aoe damage, unavoidable damage at that now that she can detonate on site. If you're anywhere within 600 range it's impossible to avoid without flash.
10 shields. She can hit every ally with it twice so yes, 10 shields. And even if she doesn't aim she gets two shields by default for herself.
Long range ult that procs passive.
Passive gives her yet even more burst damage.
High range equivalent to Xerath but without any of the negatives Xerath has that makes him balanced.
She doesn't get movement speed penalties.
Her range, while generally shorter than Xerath is not low enough to justify not having penalties akin to Xerath. Nevermind that xerath is less overloaded than her:
Single stun
Smaller aoe damage and slow, requires center hit to do max slow and damage
Has to charge up for max range on Q, slow movement speed while doing so
Has to stand still during ult. Lux technically does this too but she only needs to aim once and only stands there for what, 1.5 seconds? Xerath needs at least 3 to fire off his shots.
Look out everyone, if Lux manages to build 4 whole items she can burst people the way normal mages can with just one or two items. How broken.
And how many times did you blow her up by just pressing QWR? Or did you have to throw in an E, which makes it unfair?
balanced
Lol , i saw she double kill you and your jg about 22min and she did take a kill from braum be4 dat happen if she was god awful how come she can dbkill and you also die from her jg at early stages problably she got assist from that , at 30 min she is definitely more gold than you as you got only two cores with around 377 ap , she got 442 ap not count her mp boot from those 3 cores , clearly lux> velcoz at 30 min
Wasn't she like that before? She could always burst someone down. I don't remember her getting any damage buffs, only buffs that helped her feel smoother.
As a player dedicated strongly to both mages and Lux specifically, I'll say this: Lux is fine. Not weak, not broken, not really strong, fine.
Does she blow people up? Yeah. Check my match history and look. If you're gonna play 
or 
, think you can rush and not get punished for it (more than half my Lux games in the last two patches were exactly this) then of course she's gonna blow you up. Hell, the vast majority of AP mids don't even use MR glyphs: they're greedy and go AP. They buy boots late to try and rush damage. They upgrade them late.
If you're going to do that, don't wonder why you keep dying. It's not the snare+burst combo that's killing you, it's the 5 or 6 Lucent Singularities that you ate at the start of the game before you died. Then it was the 4 or 5 more when you got back to lane before she killed you again. THEN it was the snare+burst combo because you're now 2 kills down and you wasted gold on 5 
every time you died because you're too slow and predictable to dodge anything
LOL how can your team lose with 5 dra and 2 baron against their team got only1 dra and 1 baron seriously you guys didn't utilize your advantage. btw , lux can be one shot any squishy if got hit by her full combo like all other burst mage like annie and veigar except lux having longer range and is a skillshot champion , lux q wasn't so hard to dodge compare to morgana q got shit large hitbox , as long u didn't hit by her q and e a lot of time her e shouldn't be able to chunk you down as your poke is more spammable than hers , but you are using velkoz which is a super immobile champ and complain her skillshots is nearly impossible to dodge dat's your choice and problem to choice velkoz and u can't dodge her q and get punish by it , If you pick leblanc or zed which can be totally different story. Also i can't see your lead from your match history lux got 40 more cs , more kills and assist more items , did you neglect some important point dat maybe lux roam and got some kills to take over ur lead ?
From the look of those item she was slightly ahead of you because she completed 3 core items compared to your 2.
Your CS lead mean shit when you're behind in items.
