OK, help me out here. If you're going for an AD Caster Lucian why the Infinity Edge? Why Infinity Edge without Phantom Dancer? :-/

If you want more damage to your spells just grab another Bloodthirster, they stack and give the most AD out of every Item (not sure about the snowballing item, but anyway, that's not viable)! :D

I can see Infinity Edge doing a lot of damage from your auto-attacks empowered by the passive, but still, you want damage based on skills and without PD, the Crit. chance is way too low in my opinion. :O

And yes, Lifesteal are now really popular (and for a good reason) for those 550 Range Carries. It gives you more sustain and lets you grab Longsword instead relying on Doran's Blade's passive to restore health, and lets you have 2 Potions with you. ^_^

About matchups... While I agree that MF is a pain in the ass for Lucian, Varus is probably the same. Enormous range with Q and Blight procs + Q/E = Tons of damage. I'd probably even consider Varus a bigger threat early game... I know what are you gonna say, "Oh, but I can dash from his Q/E", well yeah, but he has both skills up and you only have one dash. The best scenario would be skill matchup in my opinion. :O

And really, I don't reccomend being very agressive against Ashe, while you can negate her slows by dashing, if you dash once you need to wait a long time to dash again, if you get too close you could get an arrow into the face and get "butt molested" by Ashe and the Support. ^^'

Oh, I was almost forgetting. About the Masteries... You honestly don't need AS nor Critical in the offensive tree if you're building a pure AD Caster. Because, let's be honest, half AD Caster and half classic Marksman is just wasting good things. You can get more Defensive stats or go into the Utility Tree or a mix of both. I have 21/9/0  for my MF: Grab Butcher and Destruction instead of Lethality and Frenzy and get the basic 9 in Defense. ^_^

It can and will be good if you get Frenzy, but since you need Lethality to get it and you should opt for a critless build, it's a waste. :P

Probably I went too far, I'm sorry, I just think that people should either build classic Marksman build or an optimal AD Caster build... >.<
