Lucian vs Ahri

Confidence highUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use early level 2 dash and passive burst to force short trades before Ahri stabilizes.
Punish Ahri's reliance on (E) by baiting it and counterattacking immediately.
Deny free farm by crashing waves before Ahri can use (R) to roam or reposition.

Trading pattern

Engage trades only after support setup or when Ahri’s (E) is down to avoid (E).
Use (Q) through minions to punish Ahri standing behind wave for CS.
Dash forward (E) to proc passive burst, then exit before Ahri’s sustained damage counters.

Danger windows

Respect Ahri’s (E) cooldown; avoid dashing forward without support or cooldown advantage.
Beware of Ahri’s level 6 (R) for extended pick attempts and roams.
Avoid extended trades when the wave is large, as Ahri can kite outside your dash range.

Early game

Contest level 2 with support to exploit Ahri's weaker early all-in without (R).
Thin waves to keep trades short and avoid extended fights where Ahri's range punishes.
Reset after pushing to deny Ahri roam windows post-level 6 (R) activation.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks dash and passive burst, enabling strong early trades; contest this aggressively.
First marksman item powers up burst trades; force recalls or dragon priority if ahead.
Level 6 (R) lets you finish targets pushed out by your burst; use it to secure kills or force enemy back.

Win conditions

Convert early burst trades into lane priority and force Ahri off CS to delay her scaling.
Use wave crashes to deny Ahri roam opportunities and secure mid control.
Leverage (R) to finish low-health targets after short trades and snowball mid-game tempo.

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