Lucian
Lucian has a 46% winrate, lowest of all ADC's. Enough said here.

Make his Q a skillshot(riot styled rework) and add some damage and range to it. Also maybe buff his passive so it can hold charges(you cast 2 spells-you will have 2 doubled autoattacks, up to 3 charges)
I do like these ideas, but his ult to me seems really weak. Yes, it does do a lot of damage especially with the more attack speed you have but when are you ever going to get the chance to get the whole duration of his ult off on somebody? And his W...his W... i hate it most of all. The ability needs changed, i dont know how but it needs to be something better.
His ult can potentially do a lot of damage, and he can move while ulting. Maybe make projectiles pass through the target with reduced damage, but thats it. And his W is a "mobility spell" especially now when it can be procced by your allies, I personally think its fine
I love Lucian, currently sitting at around a 60-63% win ratio with him over 60 something games, and I think he's fine, people are just trying to play him too aggressively too early. Really, I think his abilities are fine. Maybe a small damage buff on his W, or make his Ult come out quicker? He's fine the way he is though
He's almost as good as Urgot was in early S4 when Urgot Tier was a term.
Almost though. Not quite as good as S4 Urgot.
You guys should try the build i'm going now and tell me what you think. I try to abuse his mobility and dueling power and it's been giving me plenty of success.
IE>GB>Bork>LW>BT or defensive item. If you can't get BF try to get Brut before a pickaxe, the powerspike is pretty strong way more than a pick axe. then bork the active combined with ghostblade and his W makes you the flash, there's nothing you can't kite, i also find the % damage better earlier than the flat AD and armor ignore LW provides, since the new armor items give a huge amount of HP. Ghostblade means you can easily duel the enemy adc mid game and makes you harder to catch in teamfights, then once you get Bork you can even kite an irelia.
His late game is solid, i haven't had trouble killing tanks or surviving., you have to abuse his W and try to hit as many people as possible with it in fights.
Your last item can be BT or a PD(you can change your GB to PD if you prefer late game but i don't like it) or a defensive item.
I don't believe Lucian benefits alot from the usual IE>Zeal rush, his kit is all about being mobile and dashing in and out of fights trying to pick targets apart with his consistent burst and dps through passive procs which is why i love the movement speed GB provides., he's not the type to stay behind like a kog maw and kill, you're meant to look for a target that can't fight back.
Marksmen update coming.
They should really change the tooltip on his ult because it dosent do 400% extra damage to minions anymore, which sucks.
Now it's over 50%.
All they need to do is return lucian to 550 range, he really doesn't deserve the range nerf
His q is fine
His W is only utility If it scaled off AD it would be fine
His E is again only utility so it's fine
His ulti is almost back to trash since it cant kill in the way minions an enemy just moves behind a minion and they're safe. If I were riot I would change it so it passes through dealing damage to non-enemy champions and stops at a champion hit like Cait's ulti that's it since it doesn't have bonus damage to minions anymore.
