Playing as Lux

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Start with Light Binding

    Start with Light Binding (Q), then Lucent Singularity (E) and Final Spark (R) before detonating the singularity: the root makes sure everything hits.

  2. Weave an auto between spells

    Slip in an auto after each spell that hits: it triggers Illumination (passive) for extra magic damage, and Final Spark (R) triggers it too.

  3. Light up brush with your E

    Cast Lucent Singularity (E) into a brush before walking in: the area is revealed, and a hidden enemy would be slowed.

  4. Shield your allies twice

    Cast Prismatic Barrier (W) through as many allies as you can: the wand shields them on the way out, then again on the way back.

  5. Use your R often

    Cast Final Spark (R) to clear a wave or secure an objective: it only has a 60 to 40 second cooldown, depending on rank.

Playing against Miss Fortune

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't stand behind low minions

    Don't stay behind a low-health minion: if Double Up (Q) kills it, the bounce that hits you always crits.

  2. Cut her speed with a small hit

    Hit her regularly, even with a small hit: Strut (W) only grants her passive move speed after a few seconds without taking damage.

  3. Go in if you can

    If you can engage, get on top of her: Miss Fortune has no dash or leap, only the speed from Strut (W).

  4. Interrupt her Bullet Time

    If you have CC, save it for Bullet Time (R): she channels in place, and interrupting her cancels the remaining waves.
