Lux has no hard CC's. I don't even know what a hard ulti and a hard passive is. I doubt he's concerned about the laugh (though you can assign it to a hotkey and spam it in lane to tick your opponent off) and I'd beg to differ, but one of the only all skillshot champions in the game is definitely NOT easy to use. Since Lux has to make good use of her utility to make up for the lack of damage she'll have to most other AP mids, she's actually pretty tough to master.

Ahri has good damage, great mobility yes, true damage is okay, it's not really such a big factor to her considering that unless your opponent is simply bad, you usually have to land charm to hit them with the true damage part, and even then it's not OMGWTF true damage like Cho'gath or Olaf or even Irelia, it's the meh-est true damage out there. Charm is good yes, but it's usually what you'll be maxing last. Hot, defnitely. Hard to use, yes and no. She's not incredibly difficult to master, like say Anivia or Cassiopeia, but IMO no AP mid is "easy" to use, you'll have to learn how to time and more importantly place your dashes properly and not blow all of them in the first 2 seconds, how to use the dashes in conjunction with Fox-Fire, and how to position yourself to land a successful uninterrupted charm while using your dashes properly in conjuction with Fox-Fire.

To sum it up,

Lux - Better burst, crappy sustained, more utility, better teamfight presence than Ahri in terms of utlity.

Ahri - Better sustained damage, decent burst, lesser utility, better teamfight presence in terms of pure damage.

Lux is a better pick if you want to play burst or you feel your team is lacking good CC. Ahri is good allround pick, and very rarely a bad pick in any situation.
