Malzahar
Malzahar's Void Shift (P) is a spell shield which blocks cc like Lux's Q so she can't do her combo. This spell shield has to be broken by an ability so Lux's combo is hard to do. Since this is his passive, Malzahar doesn't have to do anything to not get rooted as long as his P isn't on cooldown.
Kai'Sa
Lux and Kai'sa make a good combo. They can do a lot of burst damage together both early and late game with a single Lux root.

Champion Build Guide
Her abilities are as followed:
Illumination (P): Lux her passive puts a spell on enemies who she attacked with abilities. Her next attack, which can be an ability or an auto attack, triggers the spell causing extra damage to the enemy that had the spell. This ability can occur at more than 1 enemy.
Light Binding (Q): Lux throws a sphere that deals damage and roots the first 2 enemies it hits. Be careful though because it cannot go through minions or monsters and will root minions or monsters if they are in front of an enemy champion.
Prismatic Barrier (W): Lux throws her wand at their teammates to shield them. It can hit multiple teammates at once. It also shields on the way back to Lux and shields them for longer.
Luxent Singularity (E): Lux fires a sphere towards enemies, slowing them if they step in it and damaging them when it detonates.
Final Spark (R): Lux her ult is a massive beam of light dealing a ton of damage to any enemy hit. It has a very long range making it perfect for sniping low enemies or stealing dragons and barons.
The easiest way to play Lux is to do her combo which is as followed: You root enemies with your Q, then you ult those enemies using R and also throw and E in there for extra damage. This way your enemies are rooted so you can't miss your ult and you can also throw your E in there for more damage. This combo does a massive amount of damage when done correctly and with the right items.
Lux is an Ability Power champion so you need to build Mage items on her. She isn't a support support like Soraka or Yuumi but rather does a lot of poke damage and sets up kills for their ADC to take.
Garen took to his family’s role with fervor, joining the military when he was still little more than a boy. Lux, in his absence, was expected to help run the family’s many estates—a task she resented, even as a young child. She wanted to explore the world, to see what lay beyond the walls and borders of Demacia. She idolized Garen, but railed against his insistence that she put her own ambitions aside.
To the endless frustration of Lux’s tutors, who sought to prepare her for a life of dutiful service to the Crownguard family, she would question their every teaching, examine differing perspectives, and seek out knowledge far beyond what they were prepared for. Even so, few could find it in themselves to stay angry at Lux, with her zest for life and intoxicating optimism.
Little did any of them know a time of change was approaching. Magic had once brought Runeterra to the brink of annihilation, and Demacia had been founded as a place where such powers were forbidden. Many of the kingdom’s folktales told of pure hearts turned dark by the lure of magic. Indeed, Lux and Garen’s uncle had been slain by a rogue mage some years earlier.
And there were fearful whispers, rumors from beyond the great mountains, that magic was rising once more in the world…
Riding home one fateful night, Lux and her horse were attacked by a ravenous sabrewulf pack. In a moment of fear and desperation, the young girl let loose a torrent of magical light from deep within her, routing the beasts but leaving her shivering in fear. Magic, the terror of Demacian myths, was as much a part of Lux as her Crownguard lineage.
Fear and doubt gnawed at her. Would she become evil? Was she an abomination, to be imprisoned or exiled? At the very least, if her powers were discovered, it would see the Crownguard name disgraced forever.
With Garen spending more time away from High Silvermere, Lux found herself alone in the halls of their family home. Still, over time, she became more familiar with her magic, and her sleepless nights—fists clenched, willing her inner light to fade—became fewer and fewer. She began experimenting in secret, playing with sunbeams in the courtyards, bending them into solid form, and even creating tiny, glowing figures in her palm. She resolved to keep it a secret, as much as she could.
When she was sixteen, Lux traveled with her parents Pieter and Augatha to their formal residence in the Great City of Demacia, to witness Garen’s investiture into the honored ranks of the Dauntless Vanguard.
The city dazzled Lux. It was a monument to the noble ideals of the kingdom, with every citizen protected and cared for; and it was there that Lux learned of the Illuminators, a charitable religious order working to help the sick and the poor. Between her family’s courtly engagements, she became close with a knight of the order named Kahina, who also taught Lux more martial skills, sparring and training with her in the gardens of the Crownguard manor.
Spending more time in the capital, Lux has finally begun to learn about the wider world—its diversity, and its history. She now understands that the Demacian way of life is not the only way, and with clear eyes she can see her love for her homeland standing alongside her desire to see it made more just… and perhaps a little more accepting of mages like her.
