Tweak Lucian

Cáble··2 votes·383 views

So I've been playing Lucian since he was released and I admit he was a little strong in the beginning. But now after his nerfs I feel like he has fallen off quite a bit. Was looking for some feedback on a few ideas.

  1. Scale Lucian's W with AD: It hits pathetically weak and I know it's got the speed boost attached to it but if you are using it defensively to kite I would say there are a ton of champs that either slow, boost speed, or gap close.

  2. Scale all of his abilities with both AD and AP: This would give him a little wiggle room with builds and make it a little harder to counter him. Would then let all of his abilities feel useful as a "spell casting ADC".

  3. Allow his R to utilize his crit chance: Seems to be a little "wet noodle"y for me. And most people dodge at least some of his ult. And if you are getting hit by it then you are most likely a tank.

  4. The Culling shoots out Piercing Lights: This would add some flair and team utility to his ult.

Any thoughts on any of these ideas. I don't think all of these should be implemented as a disclaimer. I am also open to any tips I may have missed in my searches and experience while playing him.

3k damage is not "wet noodle" His w is for kiting, not for dmg He is one of the best adc's and he will always be as long as he has that passive. I don't think he is in dire need of buffs but he is my favorite ADC.

3K damage from his ult? Well yes if he lands the whole thing but I know when I go against a Lucian I ensure I don't get hit by the whole thing. And most people build armor against him so that does come down a bit. Yeah I addressed the kiting thing with his W, I don't think it works as well as on paper. As I stated, many people have their own speed boost, enemy slow, or other form of CC that makes kiting more difficult than just "hit them with W, shoot, run, shoot, run, shoot, run, profit" but it is satisfying when you can pull it off. And if you scale him both AD and AP for abilities you can tweak it so it isn't a buff. But thanks anyways for your reply.
