Vote below.

Personally, I think yes. She could afford to be shinier like Leona is.

I think she could use a TU but frankly, her model shouldn't be shining like the Sun itself. I actually really like the fact that Lux looks more subdued than her personality would suggest; it matches her personal history. She doesn't necessarily want to be the center of attention all the time.

Light mage? She's just an ordinary mage.

Lux's model isnt bad (relative to other champions) but shes really dull compared to what she is supose to be - a sparkly disney princess that murders people with light magic.

A simple texture update wont cut it. She'll need a model update to have her outfit match her splash and particle effects too.

She needs a Model Update, not a Texture Update! X(

I dunno, her model seems okay. No Pizza Feet, for one.

Becasue this model... http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140807165041/leagueoflegends/images/f/f4/Lux_Render.png is not a good representation of this splash art. http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121003200406/leagueoflegends/images/4/44/Lux_OriginalSkin.jpg Her model is at least 3 years in due of an Update since it changed from this old thing. http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120912044741/leagueoflegends/images/3/3c/Lux_OriginalSkin_old2.jpg

Fair enough.

I suppose they could lower her mana on...

Wait, that's not what this is about!

darkdillApr 2, 20151 votes

They could do that too!

SchaakaKonApr 2, 20151 votes

Riot doesnt want ap casters in their mid lanes :P

darkdillApr 2, 20151 votes

Then why'd they buff Ziggs?

SchaakaKonApr 2, 20151 votes

You'll have to admit that champs that use mana are at a severe disadvantage, right? I hate it when im lanning against a Zed/Yasou/Akali/Kat and all they do is fast push the minions to my turret as they laugh at me because ive casted three spells and went oom struggling to cs with my 49 damage aa's. The world isnt fair.. :'(

darkdillApr 2, 20151 votes

Agreed. Though Riot's just gonna say that it's the manaless Champions being OP, not Lux being below par.

I'd say a visual rework.

More like a model update similar to Kassadin

SchaakaKonApr 2, 20151 votes

Why do you want to downgrade lux??

GaleWinUnleashedApr 2, 20151 votes

Kassadin's model, while it may or may not look very good (that varies by individual opinion), is technically more advanced than it was previously. It has a higher polygon count, some fancy new animations (which look quite smooth), and overall fits the current art direction of League of Legends much better than before.

The issue is that it just doesn't look like old Kassadin anymore, and many players (you included? I don't know) had grown to appreciate him for what he was.

SchaakaKonApr 2, 20151 votes

No no, dont get me wrong, Ive never been a Kassadin fanboy. His looks changed a wee bit but that doesnt concern me too much.

And yes it is an upgrade but its only an upgrade by minor degrees. Thats what gets at me. We get this new and improved champion but its only better by around 2%? All they did was smoothe out the edges and take away his horned cod-piece. C'mon, if your gona upgrade something - go all out and make it look good! :P

SharjoApr 2, 20151 votes

Because then we'd be waiting for potentially years! :(

Atleast they gave him what they could within the limits they had. Doesn't mean they're never going back to him ever.

SchaakaKonApr 3, 20151 votes

But it does mean Kassadin is not getting the Karthus treatment (for at least a few more years now). I'd really like Riot to hunker down and give Kassadin a VO that makes sense with his character/lore an expanded lore where he actually fits into the world/game. I really hoped Kassadin looked more Darth Vader'y instead of a ghastly road warrior look he has now.

Jeddy017Apr 2, 20151 votes

Well,it was certainly an upgrade for Alistar & Maokai

DwarvenGiantApr 3, 20151 votes

All champs that came out before 2013 (with a few exceptions like Annie, Diana, etc.) will have a texture rebalance eventually.

And to all the people that say that she needs a MTU/VU and not Texture Rebalance or TU- Usually Texture rebalances don't interfere the process of a bigger champ update (MTU/VU) for said champ.
