Overview

Use passive fear to disrupt Lucian's short burst trades and control lane tempo.

Trading pattern

Use passive fear to initiate trades and proc electrocute before Lucian can respond.

Avoid trades when (R) is down; Lucian's burst can punish your immobility.

Punish Lucian's cooldowns and positioning mistakes with fear and burst trades.
Pressure waves after first item spike to deny Lucian free scaling and force recalls.
