If they build Magic Resist to block his W, his Ult goes through. If they build Armor to block his Ult, his W goes through. If they build both, they'll be doing less damage, so who cares if they block it?

Penetration isn't the end all be all of the game. Hybrid scaling champs have an ADVANTAGE because they aren't as easily countered. Worst case scenario is someone grabbing health against Lucian, he's got good burst but not THAT good burst, and his sustained damage isn't the best, even with an AD build.
