Really? Her SHIELD?

with all the complaints, I'm sure it didnt come as much of a surprise to see a nerf to

But REALLY? her SHIELD?

lux maxes her shield LAST.

while i don't really think lux needs any nerfs if i was goign to nerf anything the shield would be my LAST thought

this just seems like another pointless nerf to appease the masses rather than to actually accomplish a balance change. if you want to balance her idk maybe increaser her ulti cooldown to 60 seconds.. maybe undo the buff to her snare on the 2nd target hit, maybe lower her E ratios,, masybe make the AOe smaller... idk.. but why her SHEILD?

out of all the things to nerf, you thought.. "hey lux's shield is what really causes people issues, lets nerf that"

if a champion maxes a skill LAST its GENERALLY not the one that needs a nerf... just going to throw that out there.

I think the nerf to her shield strength is to make her more vulnerable to all-in situations.

Less Lux shield = Less tears from DOT mages. This pleases the Swain Train.

Dunno, lux could get up to 160+0.7 ap from a rank 1 shield, potentially both for her and the adc if played support. Seems a good place to remove extra power from.

Eh, it's actually the first one I max when I play her as Support. Sometimes I max the snare, but the duration doesn't increase with levels so the only thing I'm getting there is a second less of cooldown.
