Not to mention when her ult is down, lux's damage potential is... Abysmal (her ult deals almost half her damage with the illumination proc) : / If she had a normal ult CD she'd be useless most of the game (aka ult down) damage wise. Not to mention her long CD on her q and e means that she can't do anything after finishing her combo but run in circles. Compare it to ziggs who has a long CD on his ult, but can spam his q constantly, dealing reliable constant AE damage in a team fight. Others like Malzahar have a long CD on his ult, but 3 damage spells on his q w and e. Sure lux brings nice utility but in a team fight, you need that damage, which is why she tends to become a weaker ap late game.
