Guide to Synergizing Nocturne and Lux

Tips for Playing as Nocturne with Lux

Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.

Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.

Advice to Understand How Lux Will Play

If you have trouble landing Prismatic Barrier, remember that it returns to you after it reaches max range. Try positioning yourself to hit your allies with its return trip.

Lux has great zone control abilities. Try to set up Lucent Singularity to prevent an enemy's advance or escape.

Lucent Singularity is a great scouting tool. Try throwing it into brush before walking into it to check for ambushes.

By being on the same side as Nocturne, she improves their win rate by 0.6% to 52.4%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong bond between Nocturne and Lux that results in them performing better together than alone.

Lux has a greater difficulty than Nocturne. That means Nocturne players must be cautious when finding Lux comrades to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Playing alongside, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
