Advice to Understand How Lucian Will Play

For optimal burst, try to combine Relentless Pursuit into Piercing Light.

This change may signal that Lucian supports by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Leona is played with Lucian on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Lucian. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Lucian.

Is Leona better when played alongside Lucian?

There is no perfect companion for Leona that will always be her top teammate. However, Lucian is a below average companion for Leona. By being on the same side as Leona, he decreases their win rate by -1.4% to 50.8%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative bond between Leona and Lucian that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Lucian has a greater difficulty than Leona. That means Leona players must be cautious when arranging Lucian comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Playing alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to soak up damage. When paired, these two will be a great protective duo.

Although, by bringing Leona and Lucian together, you will not be granting your team a lot of magical damage output. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that fills this disparity in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Lucian ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
