Take a look at the enemy team's composition.

Take a look at the enemy team's build.

The only thing I have to say is, armor isn't necessary. Not going to point any fingers or call anybody stupid, just going to say it's stupid to build armor when the enemy team is fully AP.

Edit: Saw the 2 comments so let me add this. You need to go to the build screen.

There are item 3068 item 3075 item 3143.

They sold the items after I said something about it. Go to the build screen. Selling the items still wasn't enough to get them the MR they needed because you only get a percentage of the gold back.

As for Lux, an item 3001 and a item 3060 should come before any remote build towards a item 3157 . Stasis lasts 2.5 seconds, nothing compared to permanent MR in terms of sustaining in a team fight. What good is stasis if you get rolled in a 1v1 or targeted in a team fight? You prolong your death by 3 seconds then die anyway lol

Are you talking about the Lux with the Seekers? Zhonyas is a great item even if the armor on it is going to waste. Unless she built it first/second and never finished it you've got no grounds to criticize at all as far im aware.

But you are correct, building armor against an AP team is stupid. Luckily, no one on your team did, though that doesn't seem to have mattered.

Also, I don't know why you built Athenes and Abyssal on Leona but those aren't very good items for her. You would have been better off just building straight MR defensive items like Banshees and Spirit Visage since your Lee decided to build damage.

I mean, an argument could potentially be made for Abyssal Scepter if youre team is heavily stacked with magic damage, but yours isn't at all, and wasting an item slot to boost a single party members damage (Lux) seems like a waste considering, as mentioned before, Lee built damage.

I must be missing something, as I don't see a item 3068 or item 3075 anywhere (maybe its bugged for me?) but I did notice the Zed purchased a item 3143 which doesn't make any sense. The Zed just seems like he didn't really know exactly what he was doing considering he built that armor item and also didn't finish his item 3153 until after finishing said armor item.

item 3001 and item 3060 would be terrible buys on a Lux. She should never really get close enough for the passive on Abyssal to be relevant and Banner of Command is more something that a Jungler/Support would buy since Lux is better off spending that gold on better items.

item 3157 active allows you to buy time for cooldowns to come back or for teammates to help you out if you get caught in an unfortunate situation in a fight and can be a real life saver against dangerous abilities like Ahri charm/Blitz hooks if youre fast enough with the active. On top of that it also has 120 AP,one of only two such items in the game, the other of which she already had. The only real questionable item Lux built was item 3151 , and even that isn't terrible, she just would have been better served by a item 3116 .

But at any rate, Zhonyas is an excellent item on Lux even if the other team is full AP because of the AP and the active. Yes, you lose a bit of gold efficiency on the item, but its still fantastic regardless.

Deleted my comment before you replied, I agree with this. You say item 3157 for quick reaction time against Ahri or Blitzcrank and I say item 3102. Let's you make a clean getaway while maintaining mobility.

Yes in terms of purely defensive items item 3102 is superior toitem 3157 , but item 3157 fills both an offensive and defensive purpose such that it can technically be considered an offensive purchase and leave the player open to the item 3102 as well. Plus, the item 3157 has the potential to save the player from far more danger than a item 3102 simply because of its 2.5s immunity.

At the end of the day though, against an enemy team comp with that much long range crowd control/damage, your entire team should have rushed item 3102 as a third or fourth item I think.

Also, I noticed that you started with E and maxed it first. Typically the ideal start on Leona would be Q so that you can kill wards instantly with AA>Q>AA combo while also being able to stun anyone that makes the mistake of getting too close. Its typically a bad idea to try to all-in without at the very least your E>Q combo, unless you have a serious advantage somehow, which makes starting E almost worthless. The ideal would be to start with Q, then get E followed by W, maxing W first then Q and lastly E.

I hope im not coming off as being a know it all or a dick, im just letting you know things that im fairly certain to be factual. Im definitely no expert at the game.
