How am I supposed to play Lux in this meta?

Hi guys, this post is basically to ask for advice. Lux was one of my first champs and she is still one of my favourites, but i feel like in every matchup my opponent has stunning ammounts of mobility, ways to block my spells, (hi EoN) or, in general, methods to deny my pressence in the game until i feel absolutely useless. So, do you think there's room for Lux in the game, or should I switch to another champ? And yes, i know whatitem 3157 is, thanks.

It's all about positioning lux can get so much damage in from out of harms way that if you give up that range advantage you'll just get popped. Lux is still fine for the meta imo but if you really can't find success but what another good dps, huge range mage, Xerath and Ziggs are quite good right now since it's so difficult to get up on them without taking buttlloads of damage

You pick her then feed gold to the enemy Yasuo Rengar Khazix Zed Talon

Only good in arams and low elo to be honest. No one plays her in diamond elo.(not counting D5)

Imo teamfights seem to be where its at for her. she can stun, shield, execute, etc. just use your e for damage, but youll usually be more useful in the cleanup when the enemy team are running with low health.

landing ur Q is the most obvious advice you can E first to slow them and make ur Q easier to land, right before poppin the E

i like her because shes one of those champs like xer with such range that when things get crazy, your screen is on ur own champ like 10% of the time, the rest is spending aiming for enemies and finding the perfect angle to intercept their path, no matter where the shot is starting from. landing that sh*t is most rewarding

as a vel'koz player who has slightly shorter range than lux we just gotta abuse range and keep on poking. its like peeling the skin off an orange slowly and steady then we feast on them. lux provides great cc and zone control from far away. if you actually need zhonyas that means you are playing wrong. we need to be in the backline in a place where using zhonyas shouldn't even be thought of.

if someone has edge of night just wait for them to use it then go ham on them. they just nerfed its cd so you have a longer window to kill them.

You poke with E only. Save Q until after mobility is used.
