Actually, you can do a very odd variant of Lux if you expect to end games quickly (you need a team you trust though). This is purely a pubstomping build; do not take it into Ranked (unless you are a seriously bored Lux pro).

My Game-Rush-Lux runs Manamune (early Tear), Berserker's Grieves and Sheen, later converting into full AP Lich Bane if things go south.

The main benefit is that you get the full tower-busting experience while controlling your lane (with a partner or two) for rapid pushing; Lux excels at this in early-mid game because her disables are just that damn good. Sheen + Front-Swing Illuminate does much higher damage that you would expect; especially with Manamune. Lux has pretty good auto-attack range for a mage too.

However, the strategy will fall apart quickly if you start feeding, so again, I must emphasize that you need strong teamwork to make this happen. Otherwise, plain old Nuke Lux or Enabling Lux works best.
