-Scales with AD. -91% of his damage composition is physical, and scales extremely well with raw AD, armor pen, and CDR. -Has insane mobility. -Late-game can kill a squishy with little more than an ultimate. and -Has a good mid-game with incredible burst and falls off later in the game.
You might've said 
but those descriptions apply to another champion...

Lucian is a midlaner.
SwapShadows2 votesI don't think anyone guessed zed because late game his ult isn't killing anything.
EDIT: it does kill your winning chances
Lafouboy1 votesLucian, while possible to bring mid lane, isn't a good mid lane champion.
Reasons: -He is very squishy -He has low auto-attack range -His burst is mediocre compared to many other champs -He is AD (thus possibly removing an AP champ from your comp by bringing him mid) -He has no CC to contribute to the team, making him practically useless if he fails laning phase -His best build items are ADC items -His only escape/engage is a long cool-down, short ranged, dash -There are better choices for midlane marksmen that actually are proven to work well (Corki or Varus being the best examples)
Pretty much, if you pick Lucian mid, you will have another AD champion (potentially causing your team to have a full AD teamcomp), who is less effective than Corki or Varus, less safe than most mid lane champs, has less burst than most mid lane champs (especially another AD champ like Talon or Zed), who has no CC or reliable poke to provide the team, and who has to play as an ADC anyways during teamfights, but without having the benefits of an ADC's damage output.
In essence, he is a tier 3 pick (out of God Tier, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and Tier 4), bordering tier 4. Viable, but the challenge does not meet the reward of playing him; choosing another champ could provide much more with less hassle.

I didn't say he was a good mid.
I'm saying he belongs mid, not ADC.
LordGeovanni1 votescan you say that again idk if you said mid laner or champion you can take mid lane. really lucian only has 3 damageing spells and his passive is just another attack but debufffed not unique enough to be counted as a seperate damage source so with out basic attacks w is magic damage is 1/3rd of his damage.and with basic attacks 25% though obviously this will be diffrnet depending on what you personally prefer and how you play if you want to you can only use q or w or jsut basic attack.
edit there is also
