Lux is most effective as a damage-focused mage support rather than a traditional enchanter. She excels at poking enemies and securing kills with her Q-combo alongside her ADC.

Best Synergies & Matchups

• Exceptional synergy with Caitlyn due to complementary abilities
• Best blind picked when paired with Caitlyn
• Against engage supports, defensive runes are essential

Skill Order Priority

1. E - First 3-5 points
2. W - Max after E (earlier if behind)
3. Q - Max last (root duration stays constant)

Tips for Maximizing Damage

• Space out abilities to proc passive with auto-attacks
• In poke situations, use abilities together
• Maintain safe distance as an artillery mage

Core Build Path AP Focused Build:

• Starting: Spellthief's Edge + 2 Health Potions
• Core: Liandry's Anguish, Sorcerer's Shoes, Shadowflame
• Situational: Mejai's Soulstealer (when ahead)

Defensive Build (vs Engage Supports):

• Focus on support items with defensive stats
• Consider Aftershock keystone
• Max W after 2 points in E

Key Gameplay Elements

• Position aggressively when ahead to maintain pressure
• Against tank supports, focus on utility and survival
• Use Q carefully to create opportunities for team follow-up
• Prioritize vision control around objectives

Team Role

• Primary: Long-range damage and pick potential
• Secondary: Shield support and zone control
• Late game: Focus on catching priority targets with Q-R combo

Remember to adapt your build and playstyle based on team composition and match-up. Against heavy engage, prioritize survivability over raw damage output.
