this will stop luxs's from sitting in the back and getting what they want done. they actually need to walk up early game to cs and poke. fix her q hitbox so when the rectangle doesnt hit u, u dont get snared regardless. make it so her shield isnt instant cast and instead has like a .5 wait timer. im not hitting her too hard, but making her more of a challenge to play.

Sorry but Lux is a mage and therefore she could never be OP.

Don't touch my Lux, but you are right about the e range being insanely high.

Early game she exactly DOES walk up to CS and poke. Lowering E range early would have absolutely no effect for good Lux players.

fix her q hitbox so when the rectangle doesnt hit u, u dont get snared regardless.

Pretty much every single skillshot in this game has a bigger hitbox than the actual physical projectile. You must also have problems with Morgana, Thresh, Blitz, Amumu, LeBlanc, etc etc etc

make it so her shield isnt instant cast and instead has like a .5 wait timer.

You're joking, right? This is what her shield was before. A shield is useless if you can't use it immediately because it doesn't actually block anything.

Her e does have a large mana cost though, she will run out of mana if she keeps poking.

OR OR!!!!!! REVERT THE 2 BUFF SHE GOT IN A ROW!!! That was beyond stupid why riot buff her when she was already fine but not seeing a lot of play's. If they want to see a champion getting played they should buff or work on yorick for once.

they just need to make it so that we can dodge it . basically a delay before she can detonate it.

The problem with Lux isn't her damage or her range. The problem is that even when you come close to her, she has no problem to survive thanks to her refreshing shield, base stats and zhonya. So if you fight her long range, you will lose, if you can reach her, you lose anyway because she definitely will survive and she will kick you in the @*s with her Q. For me she should pay when someone reach her maybe reducing her defensive abilities or stast or cast time.......a weakness.

Lux and Ahri are broken.You don't deny.(Lux and Ahri mains) We know which champions powerful.

Lux's early E before level 7 doesn't actually do enough to poke you out of the lane unless she's capable to proc the passive (and therefore TL). If you don't let her auto attack you she'll run out of mana before she can go through your 2 pots and become a sitting duck.

forget the nerf, we all should be focusing on the buff

Blumpkin Nation1/27/2016, 1:40:44 AM1 votes

lol. People don't understand that it's still not the champions that are broken. It's the direction that Riot took the masteries in. TLD is op on anyone who has range. Instead of nerfing the mastery, they're doing global champ nerfs.

Lux will get nerfed, much to my displeasure. Just wait.

A backline mage is in the back, hey?

100% skillshots is already a considerable skill floor. Every skill she has stuns her. Her E is easy to hit with but deals no damage without items and hammers her mana. Stand in minions and she pushes (somewhat, her waveclear is actually kind of shit compared to most mages) and she's highly gankable. If she misses her q she dies instantly. HP and armor are each bottom 5 in the game and mana's down there too.

And as for some of the other nonsense being spewed in this thread, if she has barrier she doesn't have ignite or teleport. If she's under tower you're winning lane; go roam- she'll be oom by the time she pushes the wave off.

I'd rather see Riot buff other mages to be on Lux's level. Lux is immobile, squishy and 100% skillshots, even if her E is a fairly large one. She has built-in ways to outplay her and a good player can avoid some or ALL of her damage. She has to position well or she's dead, and missing her Q in lane is brutal on her if she's not hugging tower. She can play VERY safe, but if she does she can neither roam nor pressure her lane. If she's playing passive, roam and snowball bot. Or fake that you're roaming and jump her in river with your jungler if she follows you.

If you let her play the lane passively, farming and poking you at her lesiure... then YEAH she's strong. You're doing what she wants. If you're poking her back hard and/or brutally jumping her when she walks up to auto minions (FYI she has to, her E won't waveclear alone) she's gonna have a rough time. mobile characters can jump her if they can dodge her bind. If she's packing barrier it a terrible idea to tower dive her, but that means she's playing very, very safe. Go gangbang bot lane while she sits in lane hearing her team rage for not helping them. She has to push, roam or go aggressive to get anything done. Dodge her skillshot and wreck her if she pushes out, and brutalize other lanes if she doesn't. There ARE more strats in this game than "bum rush the other mid and fite!". Learn what she's doing and do something to counter her. She's only strong now because a lot of other mids who gave her trouble are in the dumpster and she can play safe enough to weather the storm of many of the assassin mids that people are fond of lately. So go assassinate someone else and let Lux sit there alone while you snowball your team hard.

THINK. Make it work.

Ironically last month i saw this exact same thread about her being op being down-voted to oblivion. she was OP then and she is OP now. Wouldn't be so bad if you could get to her and be rewarded with a lot of damage on her like Xerath but nope she will just shield herself.

weeaboomer1/26/2016, 4:51:31 AM1 votes

Her w was buffed to do that. I forgot what the e change was but I know it made it a lot more brain dead than it already was. Might as well make it a point and click ability.

WiegrafOfValor1/26/2016, 11:24:57 AM1 votes

Make her have a decent ult CD, tired of getting ulted twice by her in the same skirmish.

Hellioning1/26/2016, 5:20:10 PM1 votes

Riot has stated they don't like normal abilities gaining range as they level; they think that it's more important that someone learns how to play around an ability. They've also said that having cast times on shields feels really, really bad.

That being said: Lux's early game is where she's the most vulnerable. I'm not sure why you want to make her weaker then, instead of later on.
