Ahri vs Lucian

Confidence highUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to poke Lucian and bait his (E) dash before committing.
Hold (E) to punish Lucian's forward movement or missed cooldowns.
Control wave to enable roam windows and avoid extended trades against his burst.

Trading pattern

Short trades with (Q) return damage and (W) proc electrocute before disengaging.
Use (E) only when Lucian commits forward or wastes (E) dash.
Avoid extended trades when your (Q) and (W) are on cooldown or wave is large.

Danger windows

(E) dash forward combined with support setup creates burst trade windows.
Avoid overextending when (R) is down; you lose mobility and become vulnerable.
Missing (E) leaves you exposed to Lucian's short-range burst and follow-up trades.

Early game

Contest level 2 trades carefully; (E) plus passive burst is strong early.
Thin the wave to avoid being forced under tower before Lost Chapter.
Back off if Lucian uses (E) aggressively without support setup to punish cooldown.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R), enabling safer picks and extended trades; track its cooldown.
First completed mage item improves waveclear and trade damage; increase pressure then.
Level 3 grants more short-trade options; use (E) angles carefully to punish overextensions.

Win conditions

Land (E) to pick off Lucian after he uses (E) or overextends.
Push wave safely post-item and use (R) to roam and impact side lanes.
Deny Lucian free farm by contesting last hits with (Q) poke and wave pressure.

Tip: For Ahri vs Lucian, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
