I love Lux but I don't enjoy playing her as a support.

For one thing - her armor and health at lvl 1 are very low. It is quite easy to die during the first few levels. You could say that armor runes might help with that ofc, but seeing that Lux needs some AP to be useful I'd rather keep my AP runes.

I wouldn't say that her transition to mid/late game is that easy. Well, ofc with gold generating items and some assists you do get gold *eventually* but there are too many situations when I feel the lack of power as support lux (like - my laser can't finish an enemy running away with seemingly low hp and stuff like that).

One thing I definitely need to try after reading this blog and the comments is support Fiddlesticks. His fear is the king of disables. Drain should also be good as carries usually dont have hard cc themselves. Though he might have some mana problems if he uses fear + drain too often.
