Lux vs Cassiopeia

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Lux is a high-range artillery mage who must maintain distance to control the lane and punish Cassiopeia's shorter range.
Apply lane pressure early to deny Cassiopeia safe space for her poison and sustained trades, preventing her from scaling comfortably.

Trading pattern

Poke with E and punish Cassiopeia's missed Cassiopeia Q or W with Q root into burst combo.
Respect Cassiopeia W cooldown as it grounds mobility; avoid committing when W is up.
Use Q as both a pick tool and defensive cooldown to deter Cassiopeia's all-in attempts.

Danger windows

When Cassiopeia has R available and you are forced to face her, avoid committing to trades.
If you miss Q, Cassiopeia can punish you hard; play cautiously until Q is back up.
Be wary when Cassiopeia's W is up as it grounds dashes and can trap you in bad trades.

Early game

Use E to poke and keep Cassiopeia from safely applying poison early.
Avoid reckless Q usage to prevent being punished by Cassiopeia's follow-up damage.
Maintain range control to prevent Cassiopeia from forcing extended trades inside her W zone.

Power spikes

Level 6 R is a major spike; use it to punish Cassiopeia when she is poisoned or overextended.
First completed mage item increases burst and poke threat significantly.
Respect Cassiopeia's level 6 R spike which can stun if you face her during all-ins.

Win conditions

Win by landing Q roots on Cassiopeia to burst her down before she can sustain with E.
Deny Cassiopeia the chance to apply poison safely by controlling lane pressure and range.
Use R to finish off targets caught by Q and E poke, securing kills and lane dominance.

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