dont get too close to enemies, and stand near teamates with peel (teamates that can protect other teamates very well)

lux has a huge range advantage compared to some mages, so use that advantage.

Optimal build: morellonomicon, void staff, whatever high ap stat stick, sorc shoes, etc.

first max: E

masteries: thunderlords always

summoner spells: usually flash+barrier

vs Fizz, Zed, and Yasuo: flash+exhaust

vs Twisted Fate: flash + ignite or flash + cleanse

Death combo: Q, E, E+ R Trying to kill in lane but dont have any items: Q, E, R auto, E, auto Typical trading tool: Q, E, auto, E, auto

In lane: your job is to be an absolute bitch somewhat like Syndra.. keep poking with E's and procing them with autos if safe enough and keep range. Possibly kill the lane opponent with q, e, r then roam somewhere.

In teamfights: generally you want to just pick off ad carries or their midlaner but when you cannot.. just w your team and if the enemy team is clunked together, you do an E+ R to maximize aoe damage.

landing qs: one q can snare up to two units. So you can snare someone behind one minion possibly. The travel velocity is fasted than say Morgana so its best to aim Q a tiny amount of units to the left or right of an opponent at max range.

At this stage, I'd recommend heavily biasing your early build towards full Cooldown Reduction. Use that to get more chances to practice landing your skillshots. It caps at 40%, 45 with a cunning tree mastery that you're around the level to start getting.

That tip would be similar for a lot of champions. But Lux is also very happy to be spamming her kit frequently most of the game.

Mid: item 3165 item 3158 item 3100

item 3165 item 3158 item 3157

item 3165 item 3020 item 3157 item 3100

I don't really support Lux much, and I don't know what support really looks like in low level games. But as an example of some 40CDR supporty builds item 3092 item 2045 item 3158 item 3107 item 3504

item 2301item 3020 item 3174 item 3504

item 2301 item 3020 item 3107 item 3174

item 2301 item 3158 item 3174

item 2301 item 3158 item 3165

All of these hit the CDR cap, and have some mana related stuff built in to give you a lot of opportunities to hit spells and try to land things. You don't want to build more than 40/45CDR generally.

These builds aren't necessarily optimal for most things, and it'll definitely be different as you level, from patches and otherwise. But they'll help you learn the stuff to do with your hands, which'll be important the whole way.

Play proactively and try to use your cooldowns to get that practice, and get a feel for how much you have to hold back to not run out of mana.

As priorities, I'd try to learn to tap people with your E. You can press E while it's travelling to queue up the pop as soon as it arrives.

I'd try to learn to poke someone out with R from a screen and a half away.

I'd try to learn to catch people with Q.

As you get Q down in particular, you can start learning to combo off of it when you know you're going to hit while it's traveling. You can then get E, R, and as you speed up, an auto in as well, all off the Q landing.

Your W is buffed a good bit in almost all of the support builds I listed, but most of what you do still comes from the rest of your kit.

I'd turn on smartcast for everything in your hotkeys settings if you haven't already. You don't have to immediately if you don't want, it does help to get used to the shapes of the skills early on.

I'd unlock your screen if you haven't, especially for a champion like Lux. She's got too much range to play in locked screen.

Your E grant vision in it's area, so can be used to check in bushes. Try to proc your passive twice in your combo. Throw Q and E out. Let Q hit, attack one for the passive, then re-activate E and attack again for a second passive proc. You can E and perform a basic attack right, and if you reactivate E quickly, you can have the attack proc the passive. This is a good burst tool for wearing your lane opponent down in lane, and also actives the Thunderlords Decree mastery. In low ELO, people are not very good at dodging or predicting this.
