Who Wins

  • You lose most pre-6 trades due to range disadvantage and lack of sustain, but can win if you successfully land E-W combo.
  • Post-6 you become heavily favored as your R provides massive sustain and damage that Lux cannot match in extended fights.

How to Trade

  • Your trading pattern revolves around landing E to guarantee W-Q combo, then backing off until cooldowns reset.
  • After level 6, look for E engages followed by immediate R activation to force extended trades where your sustain advantage wins.

Wave Control

  • Allow Lux to push early levels while farming safely with Q, then look to freeze waves near your tower where she's vulnerable to E-W setups.
  • Post-6 you can contest wave control more aggressively with R sustain backing your trades.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste E on minions or miss it entirely, as it's your only reliable engage tool and has a long cooldown early.
  • Avoid taking free poke while walking up for CS - use Q to farm from range when your engage combo is down.
