Great in-depth guide. Only thing I can think of that you could add is lane match-ups.

Maybe consider working on a lane match-up section? Which ADCs Lulu works well with, which enemy picks will be easy or hard etc.

I've considered it but thought against it. Since bot lane is usually a 2v2 the different number of combinations I would have to go through is too much because I also have to factor in my own ADC

Otherwise, great stuff.

thanks

I liked it, lots of information presented well.

It's not the prettiest guide, but that certainly doesn't take anything away.

Love the aggressive spin - a lot of the support builds I've seen tend to be more tanky and passive early game. I tend to think it's good to get an early headstart so you can really get your ADC fed before team fights start.. good build, will try it out.

I just used this build (keep in mind I'm only SL 23 so it wasn't even a ranked game), and even though my games aren't anywhere near the same tier as ranked games, pro games, etc, this really helped me out, and allowed me to use Lulu in a different way than I was accustomed to. Great guide, super helpful.

Glad I could help

I see this on many lulu builds and I really don't understand it. Why do magic penetration marks and not replace it with armor marks. But I get it you wanna poke your Q as much as possible but why then magic enetration and not replace it with things like ability glyphs because the adc will hardly have enough magic armor to penetrate, or am I wrong ? My oppinion tho is that with ability power your poke will improve AND also your support skills. In that way you dont waiste runes solely on poking. But ultimatly I would do magic resist glypg armor seals and armor marks. Please give me your oppion

On ability power marks

They only give you +5.31 whereas mpen gives +7.8. I'm really leaning into the early game by taking mpen

On defensive runes

I do not use these, my guide stresses good positioning over defensive runes. I see them as a sort of crutch most of the time and even during harass skirmishes, the ADC should be the one focused. If they aren't focusing him/her and focusing you instead, that means more kills for your laning partner

interesting runes...i get that you want to be able to spam her shots more....and I get that she has range on her skills that let her poke without necessarily getting hit back but she is going to be pretty soft when she has to do some trading.

My take on it is that if they're focusing you, your ad can just easily pick up the kill since none of the damage is going to him. I don't mind trading my life to their ad in exchange for his/her life to my ad because at the end of the day, he's dead and can't farm while my AD is farming exp and gold putting himself ahead.

Also, her shield does mitigate some of the harass/skirmish damage especially since it gets a low CD even at level one

C2V is off. Turn this on to prevent troll votes.

Will do

Quoted:

Skill sequencing on Lulu is huge. There are many times you want to max your Q first, many times to max W first and many times to max E first. Explain these situations.

I'l elaborate more

Quoted:

Captain isn't on your enchantment list. Do you not use it or is it just missing. It can greatly help your team in a teamfight with its aoe passive.

Only for retreating since they need to be facing you to get the buff. Shurelya's does the whole speed boost thing better

Quoted:

You say to harass the enemy by using whimsy, glitterlance and AA. Pretty bad idea. Burning a huge amount of utility and mana for a little harass is crazy. I would use one spell to harass and throw in AA's with it. If you burn whimsy and glitterlance you have nothing and can easily turn your harass into their kill.

Is this assuming your laning partner isn't harassing with you? I'd be prepared to sacrifice some mana if I can turn a 2v2 to a 1v2 and force a recall.

Quoted:

Lulu is too weak and frontline to not run armor seals. If you're running out of mana quickly you're probably using your spells too much. The utility tree and faerie charm give plenty of regen. CDR glyphs seem like a complete waste. Unless you're literally casting your spells on cooldown they aren't being taken advantage of. MR for lategame or even armor for early game seem like a much better choice.

IMO, a support like Lulu shouldn't be in the frontlines...ever. Not unless you have some ult like Sona's. My build focuses alot on positioning, its a very important that you're NOT in a position to eat up damage and as such, armor seals and MR glyphs are a waste to me (I mean, if they want to kill you, they're going to do it even if you get MR and armor runes, might as well sink those into utility)

I particularly like the CDR glyphs on Lulu. Because your first few items should be ruby sightstone, boots (level 1 or 2) and Philosopher's stone, you're most likely not going to have access to CDR until the start of mid game. Having 17.5% to start with is really helpful and deceptive if you max the shield

Quoted:

Explain the situation when and how the items you select for your team synergize with lulu. You fell into the pitfall of "this is why I take this item" instead of the much better "this is why this item is better than the others."

I guess I can elaborate on some item choices but honestly, there aren't that many choices anyway so comparing is kind of hard

Quoted:

This guide as a whole needs more bbcoding and presentation. With many walls of text it becomes difficult to read.

I guess that's something i'l do over time. I want the content done right first though.
