Lucian is one of the worst adc's according to his win rate please buff his range back to 550

although riot claimed that they buffed Lucian,it seems that it was useless,his win rate didn't shift up a percent and it keep getting worse. if lucian wanna see higher win rates and competitive scenes his range must be buffed back to 550 due to his risky positioning in teamfights and the easy harrasment he gets in the laning phase for his short range and lack of damage in the current meta for buffing the randuins and the current juggernauts. hopefully riot starts investigating and buff him

Win rate is not the sole indicator of performance.

Lucian does not need buffs to his range.

Win rate by itself is an irrelevant stat.

BiontalezSep 8, 20151 votes

ye its true win rate could be irrelevant but the fact that he is easily harassed is frustrating during laning phase not to mention his useless ult. his overall is not in its best shape and he definitely needs some more buffs.

that could work too but definitely a range buff can bring him back to the meta for sure

Changed my mind on my last post.

I for sure think that increasing his AA range is too drastic of a buff and will make him too dominant in lane. But I'm not sure what the best way of bringing him up a bit would be. Lucian mains would be better suited to that discussion.

Well, people wanted Lucian and other "lane bully" champs nerfed so that they could rage about Vayne and Trist lol.

I think we should wait until the ADC item rework before changing ad carries that can be lane bullies. The last thing i want is for lucian to be buffed, then get buffed by items, then nerfed to worse then he was before.

I feel he needs a unique skill to make him stand out from kalista, vayne and graves. After all, Lucian has no cc, but his damage does not compensate for it and his mobility is sorta lacking when compared to vayne/kalista.

Someone once suggested that his w should dazzle/blind foes. I was thinking this could work if target is hit while they are facing the projectile. Might be op though.

In my opinion his early-game is good, although it feels bad to be outranged by Vayne, Trist and other hypercarries whom you are supposed to bully. The problem is his strengths are supposed to be burst and mobility, but he's outclassed in both departments by other ADCs.

Agreed.

Win-Rate isn't always the tell all when it comes to a character's strength. This is especially the case with "low win rate" champions. Often times, if a champion is popular then people play that champion who may not excel at it or the role. Thus, lowering the win-rate.

TLDR: Not saying win rate isn't important, it just isn't the only indicator.
