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 Viktor

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Leave his field before 1.25 seconds

    Get out of Gravity Field (W) right away: the zone slows, and an enemy who stays in it for 1.25 seconds is stunned.

  2. Engage after his Gravity Field

    If you can engage, go in after Gravity Field (W): it's his only stun, on a 17 to 13 second cooldown, and he has no dash.

  3. Play hard before his upgrades

    Get ahead early: for every 100 Hex Fragments he gets from kills, Glorious Evolution (passive) permanently upgrades one of his spells. His staff's glow shows how far along he is.

  4. Leave his storm fast

    Get out of Arcane Storm (R) fast: it hits every second and follows the champions it just damaged on its own.
