Ez ult nerf but not lux?

DrNova··3 votes·427 views

The reasonings they Gabe for increasing the CD on Ez's ult, in my opinion, are the exact same reason Lux's should get the same treatment.

Granted its not AS longrange, but long enough.

And its just as versitile and just as strong. Personally that's the only issue I have with lux is the crazy short CD late game(so.etimes mid game)

No, the reasoning they gave is not the same because Lux doesn't reduce cooldowns on all abilities by 1.5 seconds by firing a Mystic Shot every 3.6 seconds.

Difference is this:

Lux needs her ult to have kill potential on people at all (unless they're really poked down), whereas Ezreal by no means needs his ult to kill people.

If Lux uses her ult to clear a wave, she's making a major tradeoff. If Ezreal uses it to clear a wave, before this CD nerf, he really was making no major tradeoff.

Seems to me her zone control would easily make up the difference. But you have a point

Ezreal item 3025 is pretty great zone control if you ask me :P

Also, Lux's CD's overall are high af. I don't think raising the CD on her ult (which is relatively low) is the right way to nerf her. I think they should nerf her shield and/or nerf her passive's base value first.

That's exactly what Riot did the last time they nerfed Lux.

I would like Riot to make Lux E like a Xerath W to emphasize dodging her binding as the most important thing about playing against her.

This would be horrible bc she relies on E to poke as well. Xerath still has Q to poke.

Ezreals ult is global, Lux's isnt.

Ezreal has sustained damage, Lux doesn't. You can't even compare the two.

This comparison makes just as much sense as Trundle vs Nasus when it comes to towers. Aka, it doesn't.
