Playing as Lux

  • 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

  • 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.
