Lux vs Neeko

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Lux is a long-range artillery mage who must control lane pressure to deny Neeko safe use of E angles and disguise plays.
Prioritize high lane pressure to prevent Neeko from setting up roots and all-ins with disguise or W clone.

Trading pattern

Poke with E and punish Neeko if she misses E by landing Q root into burst.
Respect Neeko's disguise and W clone by avoiding extended trades when her R is available.
Use Q + E + R burst when Neeko's E or R cooldowns are down to maximize damage.

Danger windows

Neeko's E through minions can root and set up burst; avoid standing behind minions when E is ready.
When Neeko's R is up, respect her all-in threat and avoid clumping with minions.
If Lux misses Q, she becomes vulnerable to Neeko's burst and should avoid extended trades.

Early game

Use E poke early to harass Neeko before she can angle her E through minions.
Keep Q ready to punish Neeko's E attempts or to root her when she oversteps.
Maintain range control to avoid Neeko's all-in threat, especially around level 3-5.

Power spikes

Level 6 R is a major power spike; use it to punish Neeko's all-in attempts or to finish trades.
First completed mage item boosts Lux's poke and burst potential significantly.
Respect Neeko's level 6 R and item spike as windows to play more cautiously.

Win conditions

Win by controlling lane with consistent E poke and punishing missed Neeko E with Q root into burst.
Deny Neeko safe use of disguise and all-in by maintaining vision and spacing.
Leverage level 6 R and item spikes to force Neeko back or secure kills before she can engage.

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