How to Beat Lux as Rell (Support)

While statistically Rell is slightly stronger than Lux as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Rell deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Lux deals primarily magic damage (88.97%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Rell is superior vision control (ranked 9th among supports) (versus 29th for Lux), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.4 versus 2.8) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Rell Support versus Lux Support matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Rell player to maintain constant pressure on Lux, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Playing Against Lux

  • Lux has powerful zone control abilities. Try to spread out and attack from different directions so she cannot lock down a specific area.
  • When retreating with low health, be prepared to dodge Lux's Final Spark, a red targeting beam fires prior to the main beam, so try to move to the side if possible.
