Threats & Synergies
Kalista
Kalista's Passive is a strong counter to Lucian's R, and her strong CC of a nasty slow and knock-up can prevent Lucian from using an effective E. Trade with Q through the minion waves, and E out if Kalista tries to engage. In a worst case scenario, a W+R walking backwards will reward Lucian with a speedboost for trying to disengage.
Introduction
PLEASE NOTE: The word "proc" is used in this guide frequently. For the sake of clarity, To Proc means to activate, or to use. "Proc Lucian's Passive = Activate Lucian's Passive"
- Passive procs On-hit effects, so after using a Spell, Lucian will do 16% of the target's maximum health in the time that it would take another B.o.t.R.K. user to A.A. once.
- The Lifesteal supports Lucian's close-range, keeping him alive when being exposed to AOE damage directed towards the ally front line which Lucian is surprisingly close to.
- B.o.t.R.K. Active slows enemies long enough to get a good portion of Lucian's R off.
BANSHEE'S VEIL VS MERCURIAL SCIMITAR
- B.V. - Negates hard poke from high damaging spells
- B.V. - Devastates spell casting assassins
- B.V. - Offers health, the counter to true damage
- M.S. - Removes debuffs
- M.S. - Grants movement speed to help escape danger or reposition
- M.S. - More damage allows Lucian to hit harder
- High Burst
- Very Mobile, with an Escape and Speedup
- Ult does not channel, cannot more difficult to counter.
- 3 Damaging AOE Spells
- High Early Game Damage, which stays consistent as the game goes on.
Cons:
- Defines "Easy to Learn, Hard to Master"
- Lowest A.A. range of all the ADCs (excluding Urgot)
- Countered by Hard CC
- Passive is Spell-dependant (meaning Mana-dependant)
- Has a Bumble-bee Chroma Pack
Much like Graves's Q+E combo, Lucian is able to dash with his E right after the cast time of W ends. This allows Lucian to get IMMEDIATE A.A. on the target, procing the W's Active's Passive, or simply the speedboost.
Keeping Up With the Culling:
Though this is already well-known, Lucian's R, The Culling, is NOT a channel, meaning Lucian can move as his Ult is firing. By using W before activating R, Lucian gets his speedboost refreshed for each and every bolt of Lucian's R that hits the marked target. This means that Lucian will be able to follow fleeing targets easier, and Lucian can create more distance between a pursuer while dishing out damage.
