Item Build
Off-meta buildBuild path · Philosopher's Stone → Health Potion → Boots of Mobility → Sightstone → Shurelya's Reverie → Fiendish Codex
An off-meta build people actually run in Classic. Stat sites do not track it, so this one is curated from how the abilities scale in this patch — treat it as a starting point, not measured data.

Playstyle
Q (Light Binding) roots up to two targets, and landing it opens the kill on the spot. E (Lucent Singularity) laid on the lane keeps the enemy from stepping up, which is when your carry farms freely. W (Prismatic Barrier) goes on the carry before a trade, not after. R (Final Spark) reaches past the lane, so it converts kills happening a lane over. She is fragile, so position is everything: start at max range and finish there.

Lux's damaging spells charge the target with energy for 6 seconds. Lux's next attack ignites the energy, dealing bonus magic damage (depending on Lux's level) to the target.
Lux releases a sphere of light that binds and deals damage to up to two enemy units.
Lux throws her wand and bends the light around any friendly target it touches, protecting them from enemy damage.
Fires an anomaly of twisted light to an area, which slows nearby enemies. Lux can detonate it to damage enemies in the area of effect.
After gathering energy, Lux fires a beam of light that deals damage to all targets in the area. In addition, triggers Lux's passive ability and refreshes the Illumination debuff duration.
Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- Lux has great zone control abilities. Try to set up Lucent Singularity to prevent an enemy's advance or escape.
- If you have trouble landing Prismatic Barrier, remember that it returns to you after it reaches max range. Try positioning yourself to hit your allies with its return trip.
- Lucent Singularity is a great scouting tool. Try throwing it into brush before walking into it to check for ambushes.
Playing against
- Lux has powerful zone control abilities. Try to spread out and attack from different directions so she cannot lock down a specific area.
- When retreating with low health, be prepared to dodge Lux's Final Spark, a red targeting beam fires prior to the main beam, so try to move to the side if possible.
