@Riot - Lux and vision

Shirotaki··7 votes·6,015 views

Hello Riot.

Lux is a balanced mage with strong conditional damage and a theme around light based spells.

I think she could benefit from a small QoL change where she receives vision around the projectiles of her Light Binding and Prismastic Barrier abilities as they're traveling.

people throw around the term "QoL change" way too often. a QoL change is something that makes an ability or combo easier to use, or adds an indicator on an execute so that it's easier to tell when you should be using them. Really, a player that's paying attention or has a lot of practice will see little to no difference with the QoL change, most of the time. What you're suggesting adds an entirely new effect to the ability and changes the way you can play around it, and it's a power-positive change, it's a buff.

don't take me as this arguing that it's necessarily a bad change, just that your classification of it in your post is probably wrong

(though I think it's unnecessary in most scenarios and potentially problematic in some fringe scenarios, maybe it adds a little too much power to lux's ability to safely check bushes/follow up on targets hit by cc that would otherwise be out of vision. also, seeing as her E already grants vision, that probably means it'll be more towards the completely unnecessary side of things)

Dou you mean something like Ashe´s E but samaller? I thik it would make sense tematicall, and personally i love the idea since all her theme is about light, but not really necesary.

Q- absolutely no, Lux is a non mobility squishy champion, her Q cant be a skill that u can spam just to give vision, her Q is part of her core personality, you hit Q and u kill something, also, you fail Q and you are dead since is her only tool to scape from any danger, the lux player have to always play around her Q. What i mean is that would be an unnecesary change that wont affect ther current playstyle, after all, you always have to see where are you casting your Q so why add vision?

W- Well its a really wide and long range projectile, and basically would doesent have any repercusion for her if she spam W just to give vision to herself or allies, so it would basically mean she would have an small ward every 14s at lvl 1. A really long skill that would give her a lot of vision and safetly with not consequences for her.

No, that's a significant power boost.

They won't give Vayne vision on enemies stunned by her Condemn as it's a "significant power boost" and that spell is a 20 second cooldown ability that takes 1/3 of her mana.

So no reason for Lux to have it on an ability that gets down to a 6 second cd.

Her E provides vision already. You can basically use that spell as a free ward from time to time.

you shouldnt use q or w for vision. even if they did this i would never check a bush with either ability. use e, which does grant vision in a wide area.
