| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lucian | Lucian wins Level 1 with his Q-through-minion and passive double-tap poke before ghouls exist. |
| Level 2 | Lucian | Level 2 stays his as the W-passive combo chunks you and his E dodges your commit. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 is skill: a landed E mark lets you stick briefly and even a trade. |
| Levels 4-5 | Lucian | Levels 4-5 favour Lucian as his poke and E dash keep out-trading your ghoul swarm. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even because your Maiden soaks Culling and gives your best fight window. |
| First item | Lucian | First item favours Lucian as his lane poke and repositioning stay one-sided. |
| Two+ items | Lucian | Late his range and mobility out-class your Maiden, keeping the extended fight his. |
Lucian bullies the early levels: his Q and passive double-tap out-poke you and his E dash sidesteps your E mark, so soak XP and don't chase.
