I'm excited to see Lucian buffs, but he needs a little more in order to be in a good spot
Lucian Ardent Blaze (W): Now gives movement speed when Lucian OR his allies damage a marked target, instead of only Lucian. Movement speed increased to 60/65/70/75/80 from 40/45/50/55/60 Movement speed duration lowered to 1 from 2 seconds. Mana cost reduced to 50 from 60
These are the proposed buffs for Lucian for next patch, I really like that the whole team can now benefit from the w proc, but Lucian still lacks a little bit of raw damage in order to compete with these hyper carries (Vayne, Jinx, Kog'maw, and Tristana) his winrate is abysmal, he currently is the 17/18 ADC champions in terms of winrate (champion.gg - Source) I think a part of his kit that lacks power is his dash. I think he needs one more buff, coupled with this W buff in order for him to be able to compete effectively with the other ADC's. Here are some proposed buffs that won't push him over the edge, but rather would improve his winrate and allow him to compete with higher tiered ADC's
- Have his E remove slows (nerf revert)
- Reduce the cooldown of his E from 18/17/16/15/14 to 16/15/14/13/12
- Allow Relentless Pursuit to refresh cooldown when an enemy champion dies from The Culling (also another nerf reverted.)
One or possibly two of these buffs would really put him in a good spot balance wise.
