Guide to Synergizing Lux and Annie

Tips for Playing as Lux with Annie

If you have trouble landing Prismatic Barrier, remember that it returns to you after it reaches max range. Try positioning yourself to hit your allies with its return trip.

Lux has great zone control abilities. Try to set up Lucent Singularity to prevent an enemy's advance or escape.

Lucent Singularity is a great scouting tool. Try throwing it into brush before walking into it to check for ambushes.

Advice to Understand How Annie Will Play

Molten Shield is a good spell to cast to work up to Annie's stun, so sometimes it's beneficial to grab at least 1 rank in it early.

Striking killing blows on minions with Disintegrate enables Annie to farm extremely well early in the game.

Storing a stun for use with her ultimate can turn the tide of a team fight.

How to Play with Annie as Lux in LoL

The Lux Annie synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Annie, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Lux sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Annie. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Annie helps Lux perform worse in ranked LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Lux is paired with Annie, she sees a barely noticable drop in her total damage output. This could demonstrate that Annie does not provide cover for her to deal more damage or that her support also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Lux is played alongside Annie on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Annie.

Additionally, when Lux plays with Annie on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Annie does a decent job of protecting Lux during team fights.

Is Lux better when played alongside Annie?

There is no perfect synergy for Lux that will always be her ideal synergy. Yet, Annie is a relatively poor teammate for Lux. By playing on the same team as Lux, she lowers their win rate by -1.5% to 48.3%. This proves that there is a negative bond between Lux and Annie that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Annie has a greater difficulty than Lux. That means Lux players need to be careful when finding Annie comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.

Fighting together, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Although, by bringing Lux and Annie together, you probably will not be giving your side enough sustained damage output. Make sure to have other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Annie teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
