Yes I know it can be used differently but the point being is that it doesn't fit her playstyle, and 1/2 of what it gives doesn't meet her needs, namely HP and HP Regen. Shurelya's might be a great idea if her slow field applied a slow debuff that lingers, like a bunch of other champion abilities, but it doesn't. It only slows as long as they're in the radius, and once it disappears/blows up or they leave the field they're at 100% move speed again.

While some might argue that you need some form of tankiness or defense, i think most people will agree what Lux needs the most is AP. And ALOT of it.

Or how about lets put the question this way. What would you rather buy as a Lux player? Shurelya's or 120 AP and be 1100-1200 gold shy of getting a Rabadon's?

There's a bunch of other items that Lux would benefit better from, and if you're hellbent on getting a shurelya's, it should be near the bottom of the list, not the first item you rush to get.

Trust me, if you rush shurelya's you're going to be doing peashooter damage by the time you're attempting to build Rabadon's and by that point in time the entire enemy team will be capable of dealing several folds of damage more than you're able to, and your fate will be sealed.
