Early game (levels 1–5)

Lux owns the early poke war — her Q root and E zone out-range everything you have as a melee engage support, so if she lands a Light Binding as you walk up, she and her ADC burst you before you dismount. Approach only behind your minions so her Q hits creeps, and never facecheck a brush. Poke phases favor her, so freeze and wait for jungle help rather than forcing a level-2 all-in.
