Just wondering why lux was not listed on this change out of all of the champions..

"Empowered Basic Attack Changes

Historically, the way empowered basic attacks would affect their target if they'd fail to hit (due to Teemo's Blinding Dart, Pantheon's Aegis of Zeonia, or Jax's Counterstrike) has been pretty inconsistent. In some cases they'd do nothing, in others they'd apply crowd control (but no damage) and in a few they'd just ignore the status altogether. We've retooled these to more consistently meet expectations: if one of the following empowered basic attack misses its target, it won't deal any damage or apply any other effects. In cases where this is tied to a buff, that buff will be consumed as well.

The following abilities will be consumed and have no effect if they would miss: 

Blitzcrank

E - Power Fist

Darius

W - Crippling Strike

Ekko

Passive - Z-Drive Resonance

Garen

Q - Decisive Strike

Jayce

Because lux does not have an empowered aa. Her abilities apply a debuff that does pro's for damage when she hits with an auto. It's more similar to leonas passive. It's not consumed because it's not a charge, and as far as I know there hadn't been problems of it going off when it shouldn't.
