How to Play with Shaco as Lux in LoL

The Lux Shaco synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Shaco, 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 Shaco. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Shaco helps Lux perform not as well in competitive League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Lux is paired with Shaco, she sees a marginal improvement in her complete damage output. This may indicate that Shaco provides cover for her to dish out more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Lux is played with Shaco on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Shaco.

Additionally, when Lux plays with Shaco on the same team, she usually receives more damage than when she plays alone. Receiving more damage could mean that Shaco does a poor job of protecting Lux in teamfights.

Is Lux better when played alongside Shaco?

There is no top champion pairing for Lux that will no matter what be her ideal ally. Yet, Shaco is a very typical ally for Lux. By locking into the same side as Lux, he decreases their win rate by -1.0% to 48.8%. This proves that there is not really a strong bond between Lux and Shaco that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Shaco has a much greater difficulty compared to Lux. That means Lux players need to be careful when arranging Shaco allies to fight alongside, as they will require a much greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Playing together, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Together, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Although, by grouping Lux and Shaco together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a lot of cover. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the skill of your Shaco teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
