@ Chev: Yes, Getting a Kage's Lucky Pick and a Philospher's stone pretty much sets me up for the transition into mid-game once the laning phase begins to diminish. Of course, Lux can't be played as a complete 0-cs support champion like Soraka, Sona, or Janna, so you generally have to steal a few creeps from the lane, though generally, this is easily remedied by last-hitting creeps that your AD carry cannot, be it circumstances where two low-health creeps are about to die, or when the carry is recalled. I generally run about 40-60 CS by late game, since by then Lux can farm more freely.

Also, Lux can play both Defensively and offensively in the lane. A 2 second snare is nothing to scoff at, and a large AoE slow and damage can devastate opposing champions to play more safely, making it easier.
