Should Lux be tweaked?

You'll probably think that this post is made because I lost to a Lux but no. This is made because I feel, as many Lux mains feel that she's lacking in her shield. However, others believe that her ultimate and damage is bs.

I propose a tweak. Since Lux's ultimate's base damage is already high (300/400/500) and refunds 10%/30%/50% of the cooldown if it kills an enemy champion. Take away, say, 25% of the AP scaling and put it on her shield, giving it a 45% AP scaling.

I'm far from a Lux main (I main Talon) so if there is any Lux main willing to give feedback, do so please.

I think a lux capable of 1 shotting w.o a completed item while shes an item and a half behind and a level, is pretty silly. So yeah I think she needs changes. Lol.

Not a Lux main, but this looks nice. Her W is just some thing you throw out sometimes that's pretty useless. Less Lux mid more Lux support?

Keep everything except her E.

Make her E actually dodgeable.

I do play lux a lot. But I don't agree on you suggestion. It would make Lux a kind of support character and completly change the playstyle. Lux has the potential to oneshot people, but the oneshot combo is not that hard to counter (with cleanse, qss, zhonyas, locket, etc.) you have quite a lot of time to react. Nerf suggestions:

  1. Delete cd refund on ult (the only help lux to snowball even harder) OR
  2. Nerf ap-ratio of e and put it into q instead, cause e is very difficult to dodge --> oneshot potential is still there, but poke is nerfed

'd rather remove the ult refund cool down which is pretty bullshit if you are snowballing and buff her shield. Taking away AP scaling on damage from a midlaner is never a good idea, if her ult should be nerfed Nerf her base instead.

Why are we suggesting lux nerfs here? The champ is not good. She needs buffs if anything.

She's honestly not that good of a champ. Her skill shots are slow as hell compared to other mages. Once you've played lots of Xerath Viktor Ziggs etc you'll have a hard time re-adjusting to her sluggish projectiles. AOE or not, her spells come out really slow and its a huge disadvantage.

There's so much emphasis on landing her sluggish Qs to actually kill. If you're just going to stand back and bombard people you should pick Xerath or Ziggs. They have way more to spam (at lower mana costs) and bring much more chaos.

Up close she doesn't have the reliable burst power of a Viktor or an Annie
