Stop mana gating Lux and gut the f*ck out of Ekko.

So I decided to start learning Lux after a good couple of experiences with her in ARAM games.

My Summoners Rift game as her in a very long time coincided with my first experience actually laning against an Ekko and I have to say that despite him having mana and (laughable) mana costs, laning against an Ekko is more frustrating than Release Rengar because at least his leap is a dash and you could simply try to avoid brush. But Ekko gets a Dash that allows him to get into range for his blink. Not to mention he gets a shield on his W that make's Lux's look like a joke and a stun to boot. He might as well have Ranged auto attacks too.

Meanwhile Lux's E has a mana cost greater than her ULTIMATE and Ekko's is still QUITE LITERALLY FREE.

... Lux is good against Ekko.

Play the lane defensive and he can't do much pre 6 as long as you respond to his engages with her Q. Even after 6, his ult will likely be used to avoid death, not as the nuke.

Just because you don't kill someone 3 times doesn't mean you lose lane...

And really, WHAT was the point of this post? It just looks like Ekko hate post # shmaa to me...

Going along with this he can't use his e or r when rooted since u can't use movement moves when rooted. Also they should stop mana gating lux there's no reason for it

snare him throw an e auto him once ult and forget the snare shouldnt even wear off

but nah its better to stand in polace eat all of his q's , spam spells left and right even when they cant hit him and come here to make a thread

i played a game of ekko vs lux lately

lane phase lux pokes me with autos ... i throw q she eats both damage instances without even trying to dodge and waits for me to auto her and run she gets rekt and complains

HOW ANYONE OF YOU IS EXPECTING TO WIN ANY LANE MATCHUP WHEN YOU EAT EVERY POSSIBLE BIT OF DAMAGE ENEMY CAN THROW

also whats the complaining ower his shield

dodge the bulb .... walk 2 steps away and unload on him because shield is ower

thats so fking simple

The comments about Ekko aside, you were spoiled playing Lux in ARAM. On HA, Lux is one of the higher tier champions. On SR, she's much more balanced.
