Lulu..

LightIsMyPath·8/13/2015, 5:54:05 PM·2 votes·720 views

Hi guys! in these days thanks to free rotations i'm spamming a lot. What to say, i ADORE her. I really think she's one of the best support of the game 4 how versatile she is, and i would like the help of people who play her a lot.

First of all, as support Lulu, should i go full ap (after oc), since she has pretty good scalings, or making an utility build, having more instrument but sacrificing the effectiveness of my own 4? (in this case, which items?I m not trying to playing support from much time so, beside building a when enemy apc is fed, idk many stuff..) And on the side of which adcs is lulu better? ( for now i played her mostly with a and, besinde being the cuttiest botlane of history, we almost always won our lane by at least 5 kills, 2 drakes and a gone turret in first minutes..)

Then a general question: i can't find the ap scaling of her passive...can anyone tell me that pls?

And then ( i guess an answer to the question before would also help me to make my mind), willing to try her in a solo-lane, should i build her full ap or try making her autos a quite constant source of damage? (idk maybe a or a ..), i even saw people building her ad..

Here are the items that I most frequently build for Lulu support: item 3092 item 2049 always item 3190 item 3165 usually Special mention for item 3050 which is my new favourite Lulu item.

I rarely get to full build so any two of those three items, plus the two always items, plus boots is usually where I end up. I like item 3100 a lot and item 3115 a little on her but they typically come out only if the game has gone really long and I can sell FQQ and buy one of them straight up.

Don't forget item 3110 if an ad champion is wrecking face. I like to go item 3092 item 3157 item 3117 or item 3190 . Also, been thinking about item 3022 for the final item.

Lulu doesn't need very many items to be effective because her kit is so amazing...so there's really not a need to build much AP on her as a support. As to who she synergizes with...honestly I find her best when she's paired with hyper carries. Her ability to shield, ult, and speedup her lane party allows them to farm much more effectively into the late game where they become an absolute beast.

I love Lulu too for being completely adorbs and she is great as a denial support. She has peeled in situations that are impossible to peel in.

After Sightstone and Frostfang, going either AP or Utility are both options and you can choose either depending on the game. You can go straight AP for bigger shields and wilder growth, go caster picking up an item 3174 and more AP, or you can go utility, buying item 3190 for AP threats, item 3222 to cancel CC. Lulu can work with anyone, but the ADCs with more synergy are the ones that aren't particularly looking to hard engage in lane like Ezreal , Caitlyn or need protection like Koggles and carries waiting for the late game. She also is supposed to work bery with Captain Fortune, for some reason even I don't understand.

Her AP scaling on her passive is 15%. It's the same as Nashor's Tooth item 3115 , so maybe you could remember it that way.

"i even saw people building her ad.." Ah! That's Machine-Gun Lulu, where people build her attack speed to 2.0. It comes in both AD and AP flavors.

As a support I'd say your build depends on how your team is doing (and you). If you are doing decently and your team is doing decently as well, you can probably afford to go AP - special mention to AP items with supportive attributes and/or stats that a support wants, such as item 3504 item 3023 item 3165 item 3050 item 3060 .

If, however, you and your team are struggling, you'd probably do better with a pure support build such as item 3222 item 3190 item 3069 / item 3800 , as the tankiness provided to you (and your team for some of these items) as well as the utility are going to be more helpful than a bit of AP on a support who's behind.
