Tips for Playing as Vayne with Lucian

Don't go in first to a large teamfight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Tumble has many uses, but it cannot pass over walls.

Advice to Understand How Lucian Will Play

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

Ardent Blaze actually explodes in a star pattern. Try to line it up so the spokes hit enemy champions.

Because of Lightslinger, Lucian benefits more from Attack Damage than he does from Attack Speed.

Once you have chosen an angle for The Culling, you cannot change it. Pick your moment well!

This change may indicate that Lucian provides cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps increase the match's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Lucian.

By being on the same side as Vayne, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 49.2%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative synergy between Vayne and Lucian that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Lucian has a lower difficulty than Vayne. That means Vayne players don't need to be very careful when lining up Lucian comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting together, Vayne players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by pairing Vayne and Lucian together, you may not be giving your other allies much magic damage. We recommend you include other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Lucian ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
