Why are we actually questioning the Lux buffs?

Lux is easily outclassed by most midlaners (emphasis on most, not all)

She has less damage output due to her full skillshot kit

A Syndra can delete faster with a simple combo and a point and click ult

Oh yea, and Lux's nice 46% winrate is fun to look at

Personally, I object because I don't think they are buffing her in the correct manner. Her ultimate is pretty much always off cooldown late-game anyways due to its low base CD and CDR being a core stat on Lux.

If they want to buff her, I'd prefer one (or more) of the following options:

  • +5 MS (restore to previous value)
  • Casting W doesn't interrupt movement (chasing, escaping)
  • Slight increase to her passive's damage in early levels (improve last-hitting, pushing, trading)
  • Adjust the speed of her W (i.e. increasing speed the further it travels)

I think this is more of an indication that Syndra needs nerfs, not that Lux needs buffs

Because her ult cd was already too low considering the burst it provides.

Did you know that if someone like Leblanc dashes at you while being hit by the root, she still gets to complete her dash before the root? Given Lux's lack of escapes besides the root, it makes it nearly impossible for her to counter the assassins who can also leap out of her E and dash away from her ult.
