i think the issue Riot eventually ran into was that Lucian as they said could do a lot of everything. Riot's stated they want to get champions to be more "niche" based and not a jack of all trades champion. They basically singled out that he should be a spell slinging in-your-face mobile caster (As they said they're looking at his Q range now)

Personally I'm fine with where he is with the exception of his Q. There's virtually no time to dodge it if he decides to poke you with it. You practically have to take the hit if he lined it up right, as the only two ADCs capable of getting away in time before that timeframe are graves and Vayne with E and Q respectively. All other ADCs kinda dont get a choice in the matter. His Q needs one of the following:

-Lower base damage and scaling: Lucian shouldn't be able to poke for free damage

-Lower range

Or (And I think this be the most effective)

Cast time increase to .5-.6, and a better visual of the actual shot. the light tint isn't enough to help players know if they'll be hit or not.
