And what about LeBlanc? Her ult is on an even lower CD, and she can use it as an escape mechanism, she can use it as an extended silence, she can use it as an extended root. How is LeBlanc's ult not OP by those same rules? LeBlanc's ult would, by your logic, in theory, be better than Lux's because of the diversity of her ult that's on a ridiculously low CD. Max rank, no CDR, 24 seconds. 40% CDR it's 16 seconds. How, by that same logic, is LeBlanc not OP? Plus, it does amplified damage compared to the copied ability. 40% more damage at max rank. So, potentially, that's a huge amount, considering if you can magically get a fully stacked Soulstealer, Deathcap, DFG, Zhonya's, and Morellomonicon you have, what 768 AP? (Hypothetical of course, I know this is totally unrealistic in game) Not including runes and masteries of course. If you magically get that, LeBlanc will deal 768 magic damage just from scaling from the combined hits of her E. Considering that's only from scaling, that's a huge amount. Add in the base damage, and that's another 280, adding up to 1048. Now, amplify that by 40%. That's 1076, just from scaling, then add in the amplified base damage of 392 and that's 1468. How is she not OP by that same logic? Because in addition to that damage just from scaling, you're being rooted for 4.4 seconds from her E and her R if she lands it. Now let's assume she did land it both times (not that it would be hard to land the second one considering you're stuck there). She now has you rooted to get the rest of her combo off and kill you, so that would be 330+707, which is 1037 from her Q, and then 245+460, which is 705 from her W, bringing the total damage delt to 4258. Before resistances of course, but still, I'm assuming Sorc Shoes are involved here since she's an AP carry. so I think your argument about Lux's low CD ult is a little misplaced considering that that's all she can really bring to a teamfight because of the long CD's on her E and Q. Plus, her Q can only hit two people tops. Little teamfight presence, same with LeBlanc.
