I really love your guide and how much thought you put into it! I was wondering if you are going to do an update of your Lux Support guide anytime soon? I'm using your mid-guide now to play Lux AP support, but I'm interested if there is anyway to optimize my build/items/runes, given that I... well... play support :p.
Also I was wondering if you could do a little more explanation on why we're not using Luden's anymore? Many Lux guides still recommend Luden's Companion, but I'm sticking to your guide. I feel like my builds without Ludens are just better, but I can't really explain why. In any case, I don't like the fact that Luden's is a gun now xD It just feels wrong on Lux... xD
I think Horizon Focus is absoutely amazing. I love how it gives vision, especially on support Lux. It can help teammates to chase down enemies. I'm a little more in doubt about Malignance. I feel like I need it for mana, but I'm not so sure about the ability haste on ultimate. Do we really need that? Some games I feel like I even more ability haste on my ult, but there is also lots of games where I feel like I have more than enough cooldown on my ult. What do you think? Also considering Lux support?
I would love to hear from you! :)

Yes I remember you!! Welcome back to League :)
I absolutely will be updating my support guide soon! It's been a long time coming since the start of this season for sure and apologies for not updating it sooner- theres just so many changes and I have not had the time for my support guide yet! Even just updating this guide takes a while, especially during the beginning of the season when they drastically change builds based on item changes early on. For Lux support rn, you can either go AP and follow this guide, besides of course getting the support item (Zak'Zak is the best for AP). For support, dream maker is the best if you're going super shields! Staff -> Moonstone/shielding item -> Imperial is kinda the main build but tbh you can be really flexible with this depending on the game (ardent for a lot of attack based, etc). I hope to get it updated soon for you but I hope this helps a bit!
As for Luden's, its been a really bad item since the new season. They nerfed it heavily and took away the magic pen, which is what made it the best mythic for Lux last season. I think its gotten 2-3 buffs so starting this patch, its not a bad item at all! I would highly suggest using it if you like burst Lux, especially in the support role where your items are limited based on gold so every item counts. The reason why malignance is so good is because its just a solid item stat wise and the pool is actually really cool. Since its based on damage, ive had dragon or teamfights where I've made a HUGE puddle and it really helps a lot with zoning in fights. Also your ultimate is about 19s at level 16 if you have ultimate hunter on top of this. Once I am level 16, I will use my ultimate really liberally to get carries low right before an objective and they're forced to back, try to steal objectives, etc. There have even been fights where I get to ult twice and it feels really good! Or you can get a pick and then siege mid and have your ult back up again for their defense. Her ult with elder and malignance is also really dangerous - i have only used my ult on a full health carry and killed them with elder lol. I was really hesitant about malignance in the beginning of the season but its an overall really good item for Lux.
I do think, however, Ludens will be the go-to once its a better item since Lux's primary idea is burst. I have not played this patch enough to know if we can swap it fully over to Ludens yet but its definitely getting there. You're so right though, the gun on Lux feels out of character and almost illegal lol.
Horizon has been absolutely fantastic this season and tbh the vision exposure is insane and really underrated!!
I have been going malignance -> horizon -> rabadons in most of my games and it has felt soooo good! We will see how the patches change the Lux build though, especially bc on the PBE before this season, stormsurge and shadowflame were a really dynamic duo for Lux (and burst in general) but storm has gotten some massive nerfs since then.
I hope my explanations help and please feel free to ask any more questions if you have any. Best of Lux in your games :)

I went ahead and created a more convenient way to view the matchups. I split them into 4 categories instead of 5 - and I even added a Table of Contents for each champion! Just click on the champion you want and it will take you right to that profile! Hopefully that helps with better convenience and visibility :)

I appreciate that a lot <3 thank you for supporting me!
Haha if you ever want, I can definitely watch a game or two to help out! It's always a great idea to watch your own games to see what you think you're doing wrong and might need to change in future games! VOD reviews are soo important for improving!
