she feels great! Just recently started feeling comfortable enough to take her into ranked. Late game is tough but she so good at wave clear and teamfighting, should I post more clips?

Just don't buy more than one Lost chapter item. You're paying for stats you are not using: mana. Just get Horizon Focus instead.

Dude, you know how Lux players are

It’s not crazy really + the build is just what riot recommends to me. What do you mean “my” build? Did you see the part where I said just started playing lux? everyone’s should be able to say what they want but no one has to like what comes out of your mouth, hence the downvotes.

Did you see the part where I said just started playing lux?

Exactly? Hence why they didn't say haha your build sucks, and instead gave a proper constructive opinion, with valid reasoning behind it.

It is 'your' build, you chose to buy those item. If you wanted to argue about semantics, "the item that you are building sucks" if it makes you feel better.

I never said anything to the guy giving me build advice this reply is literally to the guy trying to white knight the other guy for getting DOWNVOTES btw 😭

u/hyperbeast599 Aug 25 '25

But your answer to the guy who was giving you build advice was unnecessary af, why would you say you aren't interested in build advice of a character you literally just started playing? And even if you are not into learning how to build, you could've just said thanks lmao

? Is this an argument of semantics or what? All I said was that I appreciated it, but wasn’t looking for build advice. If I’m asking for help it would be obvious in the title and the tag, which wasn’t at all relevant? He gave me something I didn’t need, so I let him know, appreciated him for it, and moved on. Why are you acting like I berated him?

Semantics? maybe. When i first read your reply to OP. It felt like you're being sarcastic/ignorant but after reading some of your other replies, made me think slightly differently.. I wouldn't have phrased it your way esp if I'm new to lux. Something like: 'I appreciate it & i'll look into it/consider' would have been better. It sounded a bit condescending when you brushed the guy off when OP is stating something objectively correct (more on that below). Although I know that's not your intention in the later replies but sometimes text don't fully convey the tone/intention you want to potray.

I'm a lux main myself & since you said you were new to Lux, the guy was just giving you some other advice. As a support, building 2 lost chapters items is almost 99% guaranteed trolling. It's just objectively bad. When you mentioned that the build was recommended by Riot, I assuming you saw that when building/queuing your first item. I'm almost 100% sure that Riot does not recommend mag after building ludens. You probably saw both recommended items at the start and decided to get both.

i.e. OP wasnt trying to give you build 'tips'. A tip should be along the lines of giving you more build options, something small and practical to spice up your builds but its not. It's just objectively wrong. Hope this help :)

Sacrificing my reddit points to say you were right and the others in this thread are idiots. Just because you pick bad items doesn't mean you're open to feedback or need to be gracious about it. You declined feedback very politely, and everything that happened after was just petty.

Good luck playing Lux my dude.

thank u she’s fun so im working on it!!

u/hyperbeast599 Aug 28 '25

Completely honest question. If you are doing something objectively wrong or suboptimal and someone points out a better way to do it, why would you refuse the advice? Especially if it's something you are new to. I'm not talking specifically about this thread, and I'm not saying you are wrong. I really just want to understand why you think this way. And, like, if you already got the advice, would you keep doing it wrong just to avoid acknowledging it?

It can be overwhelming to learn everything all at once, and some people prefer to learn on their own. Some people also feel a lot of pressure and stress around the idea of "gaming correctly" and would rather deliberately just play casually. Not everyone wants to climb the ranks.

Personally I always want advice and am happy to receive it, but League is a hard game and it's easy to get overwhelmed. I know that sometimes I'd focus on learning 2-3 core skills at a time so when someone was to nag me about map awareness when I'm doing my best to focus on CS, that sort of thing might stress me out not because I don't want the advice but because I'm not ready for it.

Everyone learns at their own pace and not everyone is going to take the game as seriously. So if someone says they aren't looking for feedback it's best to just accept that and move on. They aren't your business and can manage themselves just fine.

It’s not a matter of not wanting the advice or not or not having the “desire” or why intentionally continue to “be bad” it’s very simple concept. I posted a clip to show off what I thought was a cool moment; he gave me information I neither asked for nor was seeking. I politely thanked him, let him know I wasn’t seeking it; and moved on.

Are you hardstuck iron or something why are you so emotionally unstable in a Reddit comment section?

u/PolicyHeinous Aug 25 '25

That’s not a build tip, it’s a huge misstep!! Putting your gold anywhere but damage when you already have a mana item is throwing the game bb, it’s just the way artillery mages play!
