Passive, spells and ultimate
Lux's damaging spells charge the target with energy for a few seconds. Lux's next attack ignites the energy, dealing bonus magic damage (depending on Lux's level) to the target.

Playing against Lux
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Her entire combo depends on Q (root): stay behind your minions because it can only root the first 2 targets hit.
Her E is slow and predictable — move laterally as soon as she casts it to exit the zone before she detonates.
Lux is very vulnerable to all-ins: with no mobility and long cooldowns pre-level 6, engage after she misses Q.
Buy Cleanse or take Purify if you're an ADC — her Q root followed by burst can one-shot you in mid/late game.
