Lux
Safe, punishing, and deeply satisfying. You control the lane through threat alone — poking from max range, binding for the full burst combo, then cleaning up with your global ultimate. Lux rewards patience and precision.

Common Mistakes
Missing Light Binding (Q) and engaging into a bad position
Not detonating Prismatic Barrier (W) on the return path for double shielding
Holding Final Spark (R) too long — use it to poke or finish low targets
Forgetting to auto-attack after landing Q to proc Illumination passive
Beginner Tips
Always auto-attack after landing a CC skill to proc your Illumination passive for bonus damage
Your W returns — move it so it passes through allies twice to double-shield them
R has a short cast time; in teamfights, lead the target slightly
If playing support, save E for zoning rather than hitting minions
