wRAth's Mid Counter List

[quote=koksei][quote=Pheyniex] i never felt like [[Lux]] counter or is countered by anything. overall seems like something else. akali wins lanes after 6, it's not a matter of countering [[Lux]]. she just can't do anything (almost anything) when akali jumps to her, because [[Akali]] has natural sustain. [[orianna]]? (i mean a really good orianna) [[xerath]] and [[ziggs]]? talon? (stuff like [[Darius]] is cheating, so i'm asking more if [[Kassadin]] or [[Leblanc]] work) [/quote] lux is pretty safe in any situation - yes. she is kinda hard to gank - at least when having wards since her kiting with Q + E is pretty strong. Ori - yep a good one is annoying as fuck xerath - skill matchup. ziggs - in lux favor talon - dunno never lost a lane to him just start cloth 5 + 2 points into shield and he is done. kassadin - lux fucks him super hard pre 6 and even afterwards he isnt that much of a problem lb - skill matchup. put 2 points in W and make use of her arrogance - since most lb's think they shit on lux. [quote=Pølsemanden] Also akali counters jayce, not the other way <.< [/quote] no lol, jayce shits on akali[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]In my experience akali can manage pre-6 lasthitting and harrassing with Q and outsustaining his manabar with pots, if he goes hammermode to regain mana she can do ranged poke with Q-E. Post-6 she just goes maniac mode on jayce, she can reengage onto him and he simply can't run from her, she destroys him.[/quote]

[quote=Wayne3100]Though not necessarily a counter to [[Lux]], I feel [[Zed]] works pretty well against her. Even if she snares you, she will most likely get in range to auto-attack for her passive, which sets up [[Zed]] for an easy [[Living Shadow]] + [[Shadow Slash]] (you can also just use [[Living Shadow]] to dodge the snare though). Of course, a well-timed [[Death Mark]] could also make her miss snare/ult, though that's a bit harder to pull off. Played the matchup a few times now, it is ultimately a skill matchup, but still one that is in [[Zed]]'s favor imo. Edit: also, though not a counter in lane at all, I feel AP [[Nidalee]] works well for being able to heal herself (or an ally that gets snared by [[Lux]]) to prevent [[Lux]] from getting easy [[Light Binding]]+[[Lucent Singularity]]+[[Final Spark]] kills.[/quote]

[quote=boythinks]i dont think anyone actually counters lux directly but if you have champs with high burst and blink/dash type abilities i would think it would work out pretty well ... also.. ryze counters akali pretty well i think - as long as ryze's early game is good..[/quote]

[quote=Aseafy]Lee sin gets countered by akali in lane, and even though it is a skill matchup I think akali has a really nice advantage early game which can help him beat lee in mid. Akali gets hard countered by lee sin jungle. And about lux counters. The thing with lux is she can play so safe that even when she is losing lane, she can still farm from a distance (she'll miss a few, but that's what you get when you lose lane). Champions like fizz who apparently should counter lux should not actually have much kill potential when luxplays safely. I do not think there is a hard counter for lux. (As for fizz, I've seen froggen play against one and he makes it hell for fizz, free lucent singularity's by putting them on your low minions)[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]Why are we talking about [[fizz]]? He is so blech. Half the champs he "counters" can farm far enough that he needs to use Trickster just to get close enough to attempt at bursting/harassing --' As for Lux, I dunno why she hasn't gotten burst nerfs yet. Oh well.[/quote]

[quote=Aseafy]I dunno, but he's supposed to be one of lux's counters. Championselect.net tricks noobs into picking "hard counters", and fizz is one of lux's top ones apparently.[/quote]

[quote=sirell]That's so not true. [[Lux]] counters [[Fizz]] quite hard. :S Lolcounter seems to be more reliable.[/quote]
