"X Champion is getting a buff they don't deserve!!!"

"First, let me tell you that this Champion is fine, and DOES NOT need buffs without providing any actual proof. Next, I'll tell you about the times when X champion is strong, and it was terrible to face, to bring back the bad memories to help make you side with me. Lastly, I'll use the comments that agree with my mindless, no-proof post as reasoning that what I say is the truth, and insult those who disagree."

or you know, i can just say lux ult buff is pointless

no idea what's their goal with that

To make people play her more often, find some type of joy, increase skin sales.

That's what i got from it anyways.

My guess is to reward skill with making kills with ult.

DrCyanide1 votes

If it's to reward skill that's fine, but raise the base cooldown to at least 60 seconds. Right now Lux's ult is already up crazy frequently, this is just going to make you have to play around it multiple times in a team fight.

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

That's not going to happen.

Doesn't everyone already complain about teamfights only lasting long enough for one rotation?

Upping her base ult CD would raise her skill ceiling a bit though.

Lets turn that around, what proof is there that Lux needs a 15 second CD on her ultimate?

TyrekGoldenspear3 votes

That is late game, when she kills someone with it. When she has a full cdr build.

Considering her cooldowns are quite low for other artillery/burst mages, they are pushing her ult away from waveclear, giving her incentive to flash fry champions with it instead of creep waves.

DrCyanide2 votes

You've got the 20% CDR from Morellonomicon at least, which means at level 16 landing a kill with the ult puts it on a 20 second cooldown, so between 15-20 seconds with a fairly normal build.

It's not going to push her away from using it for wave clear, since there's no punishment for using it for wave clear. If anything, we might see her using it for wave clear more often, since she can get a kill in a skirmish, then back off and ult the wave as well.

Edit: At level 6 with a Morellonomicon + kill it'll be up in 45 seconds, compared to the current level 16 with a Morellonomicon being up 40 seconds.

Then add a second to the cooldown for every minion she kills with it. :^)

That same statement is proven by the same Stat that proves Lux doesn't need a buff. One, that for some reason, people seem hesitant to actually list. I am not arguing whether she needs a buff or not. What I am arguing is that making baseless claims does not work. Those who want Lux not to be buffed should list actual proof to why she shouldn't.

i don't give a single fuck about lux buffs

this one is just free power without goal not going to change anything, it's pointless and braindead because recklessabandon isn't thinking of how to properly fixe lux's problem right now, if they could make her able to shield herself while moving it would be better for instance considering that lux should be good at kitting

so stop talking bullshit and try to reason a bit

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

What problem with Lux needs fixing? And I don't see how Lux should be good at kiting. She can CC someone, sure, but that doesn't make her a kiter. She doesn't even want people near her, let alone want to kite.

but that doesn't make her a kiter.

oh alright

let's give a ranged champion an ability to shield but has a huge ass cast time making her unable to run from melee champ like assassins and divers

lol

better give her pointless cd refund on a low cd spell on killing someone

It's almost like her weakness is getting dived on. It's almost like she's a Siege mage. It's almost like they shouldn't buff a weakness she's meant to have.

Ahristocats1 votes

it's almost as if this weakness makes her unplayable in high elo, but hue she's a siege mage and every siege mage has an ability that stops them keepo

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Yeah, Xerath has his stun. Ziggs has his Satchel. Lux has a Snare. If she wastes it, and someone closes the gap on her, she's going to die.

I'm fairly certain this applies to all of the internet, hence why I don't go to Reddit much. If you're not part of the Hive Mind, you must be purged.

I don't even understand the Lux buff. 30 seconds is already longer than the death timers in the late game. Do they want her to have her ult back that soon to clear waves with?

Mizaya1 votes

Most people could care less if a champ is nerfed, but if a champ is buffed and it's one they don't like they have a problem.

Salron1 votes

So Does Lux deserve this ult buff in your head?

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Could care less. What I care more about is people making posts with 0 proof or stats to why (and not listing their source too).

Dryditch1 votes

I didn't think we needed a source for: "I don't want to see lux ults every 15 seconds in the late game"

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Nope, but you need a source for why Lux doesn't need buffs.

Dryditch1 votes

I just think Lux doesn't need this buff.

Give her shit more damage for all I care. Just don't make me dodge her ult on 15 second CD because my teammates think you take less damage when you stand in the beam.

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

See, now that is an actual argument that can be made. But people are acting like she is perfectly fine, and doesn't need Anything, and than don't back up any of their claims with any info.

49% winrate w/ average pick rate

lux didn't need a buff in any sense. especially not this stupid shit, where she's going to be able to snowball even harder if she gets an early lead, or pelt you with AoE nukes late game if she kills someone

but you know, circlejerk about circlejerks so that you seem wise and above it all xd

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Except you ignore a lot of other stats.

Her average winrate in high Elo with experienced players is only 52% which is really freaking low for those who are dedicated mains.

  • Ahri has a 56% winrate with dedicated mains
  • Xerath has a 55% winrate with dedicated mains
  • Ziggs has a 56% winrate with dedicated mains
  • Syndra has a 57% winrate with dedicated mains

(Stats pulled from their Lolalytics.com pages)

You can't only look at Average winrate, because that isn't the only stat there. Dedicated mains are meant to have a higher than average winrate because of how good and familiar they are with their champion. Lux is only at 52% with her dedicated mains, which actually why she is weak and needs buffs.

Aren't you the guy who sucks Riot's dick all the time?

Don't report me plz :P.

ModAcademy Kayn2 votes

If by sucking dick, you mean having an alternate opinion that isn't apart of a circle jerk, then yes. I don't see how trying to come at things with a logical systematic approach is considered sucking dick.
