oki.. im gonna be leaving comments as i watch.. lets get started.
First thing, the ulti. Idealy, lux's combo is Q - Auto (burst mark) then E, but don't burst it. the person'll be released while inside the aoe's slow, while your ult is charging.now, in the few frames before the ult blasts, you want to pop the E, doing damage, slowing more, and applying your mark. which then immediatelly gets burnt and reapplied from said ulti.
I'm gonna throw in some general stuff from what I'm doing with Lux.

Don't play Lux into Zed. Even if you get lucky once or twice and win out, it's a shitty idea in general. Maybe with that stopwatch item next season, but for now just avoid that match-up forever. He bursts too hard and fast to properly root him and run away from the rest of the rotation. I'd also avoid playing her if Olaf's in the enemy comp, although that's not the worst if your boys group and don't have a shitty team comp.

If you use E, you need to hit both the enemy and the minions, then AA the enemy. That's how you get your mp's worth per E. If the enemy's not near some minions, don't even worry about using E. Use Q instead if you want some damage on them, and if that lands, you can throw E, AA, pop E, AA.

Honestly, nothing you build will keep Lux from falling off. After Morello/Luden's/Void, I just take Ardent/Athene's and call it a build. You still do more than enough damage to squishies if you root them, but the extra utility bits will help someone else cover for you while you start to become less useful. It's similar to how Nidalee plays in pro play.
Only unobvious things I can put out there is AA has you put down and explode your E so you don't be like most lux's and throw out your E then walk over to auto because well.. they can run away from you, worse case you'll try and chase them down the proc passive. Don't do that. You can throw and explode your E faster than you can auto so if you auto > throw & explode E, your E will damage then right after that proc passive for extra damage. Same for Q, AA > Q and it'll proc passive. Also wouldn't recommend ULTing at all unless you've snared them because it can be easily dodged in lane. Late game with 45% CDR it normally has up to a 15/20S cooldown depending so I use it for clearing necessary waves. I didn't watch your video because I don't have 30M to spare watching that lol but just keep those in mind, I mained lux a lotttt the beginning of the season. Got her mastery 4>7 in a DAY after getting elementalist lux. You definitely can carry if just play to get better.
Here's the tips against some champions that I think should work:
Mid Lane:
First, I always buy the dark seal first, that's because you can get one more potion and after you lvl up to lvl 3, it gives you the same amount of health and ap the Doran's ring gives you, I think it's worth it. If you see the enemy coming towards you, q+auto+e+auto. You shouldn't use up all your mana on poking the enemy, if the enemy is Yasuo, you must auto him once before every ability you use on him, that's because Yasuo has a shield and you want to put it down. If the enemy is Leblanc, if you see Leblanc coming towards you, you root her before she can root you. Leblanc and do a lot of dmg early game AND late game, so make sure you keep an eye on her. If Zed, when he ultis, he always pops behind you, so q that way, then q+auto+e+auto.
If you get them low, try not to risk it and use ulti, try to root first, or don't use ulti at all, and if you back, build ludens echo first, then lick bane, then after.. death cap. If you see an enemy tank, back as quickly as you can, try to root both enemies, and don't waste flash if you root only one, e on yourself because that slows the enemy down, then get back to tower and they should probably go back. If they go in, walk around the turret so that they will try to follow, eventually the turret will kill them.
If you are going against an akali, you should always try to dodge because, if she hits you with an ability, then her next basic attack will do extra dmg. IF she is full build, she can kill you even if you're fed(you are a squishy).
Support:
Get spellthiefs edge and upgrade q first, and also make sure you get ignite and your ads gets heal. When you get to lane, poke the enemies as much as you can. Make sure they back so that you can push lane. Then when you get to lvl 6. Ping so that your ads knows, then root and q+auto+e+auto, then ignite ASAP. If your enemy supp is tank, target for the adc. IF you kill the adc then go for the support. **Squishies first**
Stay with your adc at all times, because since you are squishy, you must be with someone because the enemy will target you because they think that you are a free kill (if you are all alone). ALSO, if you are with your adc, you will actually have a chance of getting kills because if you are all alone, going against a top or mid champ, you will have a bigger chance of dying than getting a kill. If the enemy is pushing your lane, ping and again, don't go alone. You may need help. However, if the enemy champion is soraka, sona, janna, karma, Morgana, nami, or rakan, you can take them. IF they are fed, don't go.
When you are going against a blitz or any other tank supports, buy Morellonomicon and Sorcerers shoes, that's because it has magic penetration, which is good against tanks. If you don't, you will do little dmg to them.
That's all I have, I really do hope that this works, thankyou! :DD
dont play such a trash champion
