Hello guys I'm Khym
Lux Bruiser was broken in patch 13.25, but then it got nerfed and disappeared from the game. But now not only Jax and Lux got a buff but also Hyperpop fixes Lux 75 mana, which is a big plus!
Check out my profile for more detailed guides which don't scam your LP buy guiding spend lots of gold finding a specific headliner trait then lost the game if you can't find any.
For easy visualize, I'll put champion into group instead of positioning, if any thing need to be noticed I'll mention. In addition every 5 cost I put always have a lower cost variance, feel free to play.
When to play
When you accidentally got EDM headliner Lux with AP damage items, otherwise don't force yourself to play this comp.
To be clear unlike other AP comp you need at least 1 atk speed (Nashor) or mana regen item (Shojin, AH). To maximize EDM recast dmg Lux don't use these items, so only play with lots of rods.
How it works
Most mistake when playing Lux EDM carry is... your frontline sucks. You may see Lux guide out there playing with 4 Dazzler or Heartsteel. Lux EDM trait need a strong frontline holding the fight long enough to EDM recast (yes 4 Dazzler can one shot backline carry, but only in low elo where people usually forget to positioning).
With this variance Zac is so tanky that can handle the fight, that's it.
Positioning
Reduntdant items:
- Support or tank items on Illaoi: Sunfire, Redemtion
- AD item on Zed: Edge of Night and a healing item
- AP item on Jax: trap him in corner like above to cast Lux skill, he has no value when put in frontline
Item for Lux
Her BiS actually JG + Rabadon + AS, this happend only when you have lots of rod, not to mention you have to put AP items on Jax.
Try not to put atk speed/mana regen on Lux, EDM extra skill cast in FIXED interval so you want to put all AP item to maximize her damage. Shojin actually the worst item on her (Nashor has 10 more AP and same mana regen speed), avoid any "pro guide" that recommend this as BEST IN SLOT on Lux carry lmao xD
Recommended Augments
Pro tip: If Lux has Guardbreaker (+20% atk speed) a Gold Cybernetic uplink restore 76 mana after 6.67s. If not, Silver Cybernetic uplink restore perfectly 75 mana after 8.57s (I have my own calculation and will share my works in future).
Don't slam Jeweled Gaunlet with Jeweled Lotus, Jux headliner already give her spell crit.
Unleashed Arcana give extra AP items to Jax, rolling 3 star Lux at lv 7 also have a high chance to 3* Jax.
