Champion Build Guide

Welcome to my sensation support and mid-lane guide! I hope this guide helps you on your journey to learning , The Lady of Luminosity. In this guide, I will be going over pros & cons, runes, abilities, items, spells, and gameplay tips. If you have any questions, I would love to help! Just leave them in the comments. Also, if you have any concerns, feel free to message me!If you're curious, I started making a to-do list for my guides. You can check it out below in "Ending/Credits".

This guide is based on my experience playing . I will mainly be focusing on support but I will add some mid-lane runes and items. Some of the runes/items might be repeated because I take them for both mid and support.

“In the name of Demacia, I will punish you!”

Hello, I'm DatKawaiiBunny! I'm a Gold IV ADC and support main. I've been playing League of Legends since April of season 7 as an ADC main, specifically a main. My overall goal is to climb to platinum. My highest mastery champions are , , and . I usually stream 3 times a week, and upload clips to Youtube, so come and say hi, or ask me questions about .

is my most played champion with over 500k mastery points. She has been my go-to support in ranked for years! support has it all. Crowd control with , a shield with , and a fantastic ultimate that could be used in teamfights, . I update my guide each time I play her with items, runes, etc. I really appreciate you guys taking the time to read my guide. Thanks a lot, and happy supporting!

Pros

♥ Long Range

♥ Lots of AOE/CC

♥ High AP Damage

♥ Good Shield

♥ Low Cooldown on Final Spark

is quite a strong support. She has a little bit of everything, range, damage, and sustain. Her Q can root two enemy units at the same time, and her E, slows all enemies that are standing in the circle. Not only that, but she has a pretty good shield, that can shield yourself and allies twice. If you're going full AP , you will do a lot of damage with your abilities, especially with . It deals the most damage and has a low cooldown mid/late game.

Cons

♥ Squishy

♥ Mana Problems

♥ All Abilities are Skillshots

♥ Long Cooldowns Early

♥ No Mobility

Of course, has some problems. She's a very squishy champion throughout the whole game, especially at level 1. Without runes/items, her health is at 490 and she has 19 armor. Her abilities are all skillshots, even , so she requires a bit of practice. Also, she has a little bit of a mana problem. Make sure to not spam your abilities too much.

Arcane Comet
Out of all of the runes, is the best rune for Lux support. Damaging an enemy champion with an ability hurls a comet at their location, dealing 30 - 100 (based on level) (+ 20% AP) (+ 35% bonus AD) damage. If is on cooldown, the remaining cooldown is reduced.

Summon: Aery
If you're going full support , I suggest taking . Your attacks and abilities send to an target. It deals 10 - 40 (based on level) (+ 10% AP) (+ 15% bonus AD) damage to enemies and shields allies for 35 - 80 (based on level) (+ 25% AP) or (+ 40% bonus AD) damage.

Manaflow Band
is the best option for because she uses up a lot of mana early with . Hitting enemy champions with a spell grants 25 maximum mana, up to 250 mana. Upon earning 250 mana, restores 1% of your missing mana every 5 seconds.

Transcendence
is the perfect rune for AP and enchanter support. When you reach level 5 and 8, you will gain 5 ability haste. At level 11, on champion takedowns, your basic abilities (everything except ) will be reduced by 20%.

Scorch
If you would like to deal more damage, specifically during the early game, take . Your next damaging ability hit deals 15 - 35 bonus magic damage (based on level) after 1 second. You can also for mid-late game damage. Every 10 minutes, you gain 8 AP.

Biscuit Delivery
At 2, 4, and 6 minutes, you will receive a . Consuming a biscuit will instantly grant 50 mana and permanently increase your maximum mana by 50. This is a great early game rune since uses up a lot of mana because of .

Cosmic Insight
I highly recommend this rune for enchanter . gives you 15 summoner spell haste and 10 item haste, so this will go nicely with active items, like and .

Perfect Timing
definitely comes in handy, especially if they have assassins, such as or . At the start of the game, you have a . At 14 minutes in, it will turn into a regular . However, takedowns reduce the cooldown by 2 minutes. Also, the item contributes 250 gold towards .

Presence of mind
Since has a bit of a mana problem, will help. Damaging an enemy champion increases your mana regeneration by 1.5 − 11 mana per second (depending on level). However, it is reduced to 80% for ranged champions. Enemy champion takedowns restore 15% of your maximum mana.

Coup De Grace
If you're going full AP and/or taking , this is a great option. When champions are below 40% health, you deal 8% more damage. ( appears when the champion is below 50% of their max health.)

teleports your champion wherever your cursor is. Flash is a good engage and escape tool for . You can then use . It's also a key spell for all champions, except .

is a pretty standard bot lane spell. However, your ADC usually takes . If they don't, I highly recommend you do. It heals you and the closest allied champion to your cursor (or the most wounded ally if no target is near the cursor) by 90 - 345 health and gives you both +30% movement speed for 1 second.

deals damage 70 - 410 true damage on a targeted enemy champion for 5 seconds and applies grievous wounds, which reduces all healing received and regeneration rates by 40%. helps in teamfights and against champions that heal, such as and .

On a rare occasion, take for more sustain. This helps against counters and poke champions, such as or . shields your character for 95 + (20 per level) for 2 seconds.

slows down a targeted enemy champion for 30% of their movement speed, and reduces their damage by 40% for 2.5 seconds. can make engaging easier, mostly because can root up to two enemy units with and slow enemies within a target area with .

Support is one of the most important roles. There's more to it than just playing the champion. You have to understand your job in the laning phase, teamfights, as well as warding, and wave control.

's job in lane is to harass the enemies and set up opportunities for yourself, your ADC, and/or your jungler. Don't be afraid to get kills because you need gold. AP items are expensive. If you are able to pull off a combo, do it. However, don't purposefully take kills. Your ADC needs gold too.

♥ Level 1:

You just want to get level two. Preferably before the enemies level up. Your job is to set the tone for the lane by either being aggressive, or passive.

♥ Level 2:

Not only does it depend on wave control and lane pressure, but it also depends on which support item you bought. I only recommend taking because you won't mana regeneration with .

♥ Level 3 - 5:

Level 6 is when you get your ultimate, which is your strongest ability. Before then, your job is to get as much money as possible and to provide pressure so you can get objectives, like and first . As , you should be aggressive, but not reckless.

♥ Level 6:

Now, you have your ultimate, . You can now burst down the enemies with a standard Q + E + R + E (recasted) combo! Your ultimate can also come in handy if your team is trying to steal the .

♥ Roaming:

Personally, I like to roam after I get to level 6, but you can roam sooner. This is where you really have to communicate with your teammates. Roaming is also a great opportunity to deep ward, ward the river, or ward objectives, like a dragon. has good roaming because of her root and ultimate. Some good times to roam are when:

You and your ADC recalled and the wave is pushed bot lane

Mid has priority, so you can help get the tower

Your jungle summoned rift herald

Your jungler is ganking mid. You can most likely 3 v 1 or 3 v 2.

♥ Teamfight Tips:

Teamfights are very important. They can easily turn the game around. has the perfect kit for teamfights. can root two champions, can slow and damage multiple champions, along with her ultimate, . Make sure to peel for your ADC and stay behind your frontline. Shield as many allies as possible, especially if you're going enchantress support . Sometimes, you can steal with .
