I know I complained about Lux's shield last time, but after the changes to her shield, I feel like its fine the way it is. IIRC, her old W gave her shield mid flight and thus, the game stacks the shield. But now that they changed the interaction of the shield, it refreshes but does not stack. Essentially still 185+35%, the second part of the 185+35% is barely noticeable since it is really meant for extending survivability than to give extra beefiness to tanks.

And with changes to her E, she feels smoother to play now, and is definitely much more consistent with her damage. The passive still needs a bit of getting used to. It's impossible to weave auto attacks constantly to proc the passive. Sometimes, you gotta have some self-discipline to retreat and be safe, Lux isn't so good at surviving ganks anyway.

But I feel like she's the remaining utility-mage along with Orianna and Morgana who still carries well. Which brings me to my next point, with changes to Lux, she can effectively replace Karma from the game. She's got 75% of the cc that Karma has in her kit, has consistent damage in all phases on the game, and does a better job at extending survivabilities than Karma does.

Whatever Karma does, she does it better. Some aspects differently, but all the while pretty similar. Even after Karma's got her numbers bumped up, Lux still outperforms her anytime, any day. And the best part is, people take Karma more seriously than Lux because her number and ratios look scary on paper, but it is Lux who gets people respecting her.
