How to Play This Matchup
Mid-Game Showdown
Both champions spike around the same time. The player who gets their first item faster wins. Focus on CS leads and smart trades to build an advantage before the mid-game.
MR Priority
Both deal magic damage. An early Null-Magic Mantle or Mercury's Treads can swing the lane. Hexdrinker is also an option for AD champs.
Exploit Lux's Weakness
Lux's main weakness: Assassins, all-in, Q is dodgeable. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
Lux Win Condition
Land Q, full combo one-shot, zone with E
Soraka Win Condition
Q poke in lane, global R heal, keep team alive forever
