Item Builds
Optimal build = When you don't need BOTRK
VS Poke Lane = If you need sustain in lane from the Vamp Scepter OR if you are against tanks
VS Tanks = Anyone that will be stacking armor & hp, the BOTRK does %hp dmg and black cleaver will shred armor. Each bullet from your ult applies one stack of black cleaver
VS Assassins = Less DPS but you won't ever die to anyone that jumps on you because of the DoT from death dance, shield from Shieldbow, plated steelcaps to give you some armor and reduce auto attack damage, and black cleaver for the HP/CDR.
- OPTIMAL
- VS POKE LANE
- VS ASSASSINS
- SITUATIONAL ITEMS
- Mid Lucian
Matchups and Synergies
Here are "Extreme counters" and "Best synergies".
This is a very hard lane due to your 500 attack range and weak auto attack damage (compared to dravens Q increasing his auto damage) It's possible to win the matchup by farming under tower and with your Q but extremely hard to pull off as most Draven players will auto you when you try to cs making it difficult to scale into mid game without letting Draven cash in his stacks. He WILL pressure you heavily early game.
Cassiopeia's W (Miasma) has a root affect making Lucian's dash and flash unusable. Her Q range is longer than Lucian's auto attack range making this a difficult match up inside and outside of lane. To survive lane I recommend a healing support or someone who can all in on her without a dash (Thresh Blitz Brand etc.) Try to bait out her Q while you are going for CS and if you do get hit by it dash away immediately until the poison wares out.
This matchup is only ranked as a 4 because I am assuming they are playing Xayah AND Rakan. Their combo is insanely hard to play against since your range is low, Rakan will try to knock you up and you can dash out of it, but the SLIGHT chance you mess up the dash it's game over and once they hit 6 both of their ultimate's basically cancel yours.
Let Caitlyn push you under tower with her Q, don't go for cs if she has her head shot it's not worth it at all. Start doran's shield and farm under tower until you get a cutlass; dash into her use the slow to help your support land their abilities and ult her.
