I've thought about Volibear and Viktor. Viktor is way too specialized and his boost gain is too low to be considered a "Cunning Racer". Volibear is absolutely viable as a sturdy racer and I was stupid, though. (15% MS for 4 seconds every 4.8 seconds that is raised to 50% when enemy champions are visible? Dayum, how could I ignore that beauty?)

Lucian is interesting, especially because he doesn't care for mana with maxed Dash, but the gain from Ardent Blaze is almost lost by the double-attack you have to do. But if killing the Obstacle Team is allowed, then his resulting multi-dash can be considered "Cunning".

To emphasize: Cunning Racers are those who can cut corners and therefore take shortcuts on a regular basis, have a great boost when certain common elements can be abused (minions, champions, terrain) or can make a huge difference by being second place (Jax, TF, Shen). Or they are only participating to punish cocky racers, like Anivia, Lulu and Trundle.

Lucian doesn't really fit either definition of Cunning in a good and prominent way.
