Lux Matchups Overview
Lux General information
Lux tips and tricks
Stick with your team at all costs so you can siege together and poke together. Do not isolate yourself in a side lane as you’ll be an easy target for most enemies.
Before initiating a team fight, try to poke the enemy as much as you can with your abilities. Lux is a poke champion and the more damage you can do beforehand, the easier team fighting will be.
As your Ultimate is on a short cooldown, you can look to use it in skirmishes with the enemy whenever you land your Q. Just make sure you don’t run out of mana trying to harass them.
