Who Wins
- You lose early levels due to Lux's superior range and E poke, but can start matching her once E reaches rank 3 for efficient waveclear.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure advantage as your R guarantees successful ganks, while she needs to land Q to threaten you.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern focuses on using Q to silence her combo potential, then following with E on minions that will spread to her position.
- Avoid extended trades early, instead focus on short Q-E exchanges while building toward your power spike items.
Wave Control
- Concede early wave priority and focus on safe farming with E until you can match her push, then look for slow pushes to build minion advantages.
- Post-6, maintain wave control to enable jungle ganks with your R lockdown.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste Q for waveclear when Lux has abilities up, as you need it to interrupt her combo and prevent her from following up after landing Q.
- Never walk up without minions as her superior range makes you vulnerable to free E poke.
