Playing as Lulu
Tips to maximize your impact
- Cast E on your carry first
Cast Help, Pix! (E) on your carry before they trade: they get a shield, and Pix fires along with each of their autos.
- Pix on the enemy, then your Q
Send Pix onto an enemy with Help, Pix! (E), then cast Glitterlance (Q): Pix also fires one from where he is, right on the target.
- Polymorph the diving assassin
Save Whimsy (W) for the assassin diving your carry: turned into a critter, they can't attack or cast spells.
- Grow the ally being focused
Cast Wild Growth (R) on the ally being focused or going all-in: they gain a lot of health, and nearby enemies are knocked into the air, then slowed.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge her two bolts
Dodge Glitterlance (Q): two bolts fly out, one from Lulu and one from Pix, and each one damages and heavily slows.
- Engage twice
Engage in two steps: make her use Whimsy (W), then re-engage during its 18-second cooldown.
- Focus her if you can reach her
If you can reach her, focus her in teamfights: Whimsy (W), Help, Pix! (E) and Wild Growth (R) are mostly there to protect her allies.
- Back off from her enlarged ally
When Wild Growth (R) enlarges one of her allies near you, back off: anyone close to them is knocked into the air, then the aura slows them.
Abilities and cooldowns
Pix fires magical bolts of energy whenever the champion he's following attacks another enemy unit. These bolts are homing, but can be intercepted by other units.
