Lux is a more offensive support champion rather than the babysitting kind most support champions are. Her damage is fairly high, but is still balanced around how she can to do it in an AOE to make the most of it and as a result needs to, and her cooldowns will cause a lot of downtime where AP carries will be able to cast something sooner than her. Competent opponents won't be feeding her, requiring her to be with a team in a teamfight to make the most of her AOE abilities rather than just vaporizing the enemy carry as an AP carry would and cast some more damage spells a bit later to help keep up their team's advantage.

Her method of support is more esoteric, but visible.
