| Level 3 | Lux | Level 3 your poke compounds as she struggles to close. |
| Levels 4-5 | Lux | Levels 4-5 you keep kiting and bleeding her out. |
| Level 6 | Lux | Your instant level-6 R dictates fights from range. |
| First item | Lux | First item your poke lead grows against a gap-closing melee. |
| Two+ items | Lux | At 2+ items your range out-values her short-range disruption if you avoid walls. |
