  • Infinity Edge
  • Guardian Angel

When enemy frontliners stack bonus HP and you get focused down

Lord Dominik's Regards adds damage based on the enemy champion's bonus HP, maxing out at 12% against a champion holding 1,200 bonus HP, so the beefier the frontline, the more it pays. Across the build, Armor Penetration totals 36%. Guardian Angel's Resurrect picks you back up after 4 seconds of stasis with 50% base HP and full Mana, on a 180-second cooldown.

Armor shred plus a dash to close the gap

  • Essence Reaver
  • Magnetic Blaster
  • Galeforce
  • Mortal Reminder
  • Infinity Edge
  • Immortal Treads

When the enemy team builds Armor and you need a dash to finish runners

Mortal Reminder grants 30% AR Pen, and attacks that critically strike add another 6% on top. Dealing physical damage to an enemy champion also applies 50% Grievous Wounds for 3 seconds. Galeforce's Cloudburst dashes you in a chosen direction and fires 3 missiles at the lowest-HP enemy near where you land, prioritizing champions, on a 60-second cooldown.

Lucian Strengths

  • High early burst using the passive's double shot
  • Smooth kiting and mobility from the Skill 3 dash
  • High damage from a safe distance with Ult

Lucian Weaknesses

  • ×Short auto-attack range makes late-game positioning demanding
  • ×Frequent spellcasting drains mana quickly
  • ×Short range makes him easy to catch with CC and burst down

Early Game

Short trades built around the passive's double shot after a skill are among the strongest for an ADC. Dodge dangerous enemy skills with the Skill 3 dash and step forward to control the lane.

Mid Game

The mid game, when your core items start coming online, is Lucian's strong window. Take skirmishes in the jungle with your mobility and burst. Against an isolated target, land every shot of Ult to take them down in one go.

Late Game

Late game your short range becomes a problem, so watch for enemy CC and diving assassins. Do not force the backline; take your team's peel and work through the front line from the nearest target.

Teamfights

Keep moving with Skill 2's movement speed and the Skill 3 dash, and keep cycling the passive for DPS. Ult works best as poke before the fight fully starts, or while backing away and kiting.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Dashing forward with Skill 3 while enemy CC is up

The Skill 3 dash is Lucian's lifeline and the core of his kiting. Dashing forward while the enemy still has CC leaves you no way to avoid the counterattack, and you get taken down fast. Unless the kill is certain, save it for dodging skills or kiting back.

Lucian Combos

Full Burst

Weave the passive double auto between skills for fast damage, then follow up with Ult.

Lucian Patch History

Lucian
LucianPatch 6.3d
Nerf
Lightslinger Second shot damage: reduced Piercing Light Base damage: reduced This hits the core of how Lucian trades — weaving an ability into his auto attacks. A weaker second Lightslinger shot lowers the total from every combo, and with Piercing Light's base damage down as well, a single lane exchange takes noticeably less HP off the opponent. Building an early lead through lane pressure is harder, so the stretch before his items come online is rougher.
