Ahri vs Lux

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Ahri's high early agency and lane pressure to deny Lux free farm and force mistakes with (E) threat.
Focus on controlling wave tempo to create roam opportunities and punish Lux's skillshot reliance before she scales.

Trading pattern

Poke with (Q) and (W), then use (E) to punish Lux's overcommitment or missed (Q).
Avoid trading when minions block (E) or when (R) is unavailable to prevent punish.
Disengage after short trades unless (R) allows a clean pick or safe escape.

Danger windows

Ahri is vulnerable before level 6 and when (R) is on cooldown, especially if (E) is missed.
Avoid extended trades when (Q) and (E) are ready to punish.
Punish Lux's missed (Q) by stepping forward for short trades or wave pressure to deny scaling.

Early game

Use (Q) and (W) to poke Lux and pressure her before level 6, avoiding extended trades when (R) is down.
Hold (E) to punish Lux if she wastes (Q) or moves recklessly forward.
Maintain a controlled wave near mid to enable safe short trades and set up roams after level 6.

Power spikes

Respect Lux's level 6 (R) and first completed mage item, which increase her damage and pick threat.
Use Ahri's level 6 (R) power spike to safely extend trades, pick off Lux, or roam.
After Ahri's first mage item, pressure waves and trades more confidently while tracking Lux's cooldowns.

Win conditions

Land (E) to pick off Lux when she oversteps or wastes (Q) to snowball lane control.
Use (R) to safely extend trades or roam after pushing the wave to impact side lanes.
Deny Lux calm scaling by forcing repeated short trades and controlling wave tempo early to build lead.

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