I'm also a Lux main, but I think nerfing her is not the solution, if we were to nerf Lux, it's hard, because if they touch her damage, her utility won't really make up for the lost damage and her damage won't make up for any lost utility, Lux is not a hard-carry or even a carry of sorts in general, she's there mostly as a damage support. I usually go mid because from my point of view, she requires a lot of money that the bot lane won't supply for her in general (exceptions can be made however).

There are times where I get fed and snowball pretty hard, but at some point I fall behind and only will the utility and decent damage of my skills will keep me relevant as everyone gets ahead of me, that's where my issue with nerfing her pops up, if they nerfed something from her, she will have a very hard time being relevant at all because it's not easy to land her abilities in most cases and rarely there are cases where only will her utility save her from being useless in her team.

I see her recent buffs as a way to fix her gameplay, her Q doesn't ALWAYS hit two targets, her W defines her utility along with Q and her E is strong but eats absurd amounts of mana. Her passive is very strong earlier on but starts to fall behind to the point that it's an obligation to have it up on your enemies mid-late or else your damage will suffer considerably (fed or not).

Lux already has very clear weaknesses herself as well, she doesn't have any escapes and she's easy prey for ganks if you overextend too much, the sole fact of using E or your whole combo drains your mana crazily to the point you're obligated to get mana-regen/flat mana from somewhere and let's not get started with her horrid-to-mediocre cooldowns, which makes %CDR a MUST (you're not doing right if you don't have at least over 20% CDR on her ASAP).

TL; DR: Lux depends heavily on how well you use her, she has clear strenghts and weaknesses and I doubt she should have nerfs anytime soon, rather, I'd say a better option is to leave her as it is and let things change around her until she's in a position that is too good for her, I'm open to any kind of arguments (mainly because I'm being VERY subjective with this comment).
