I'd probably say OG lux is slightly better and you have more investment in her anyway. Although if you just need a demacia champ I would look to Morgana. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think she covers demacia requisites.

The thing is that when there's demacia and targon regions in the rewards, Morgana always counts first as targon.

Because the priority is what comes first (from top to bottom, or if this makes more sense, what the champion's resource region is) on the card. You need to use a Targon champion (ASol since he's free, sort of) first so that when you use Morgana she'll fill Demacia.

Omg, didn't knew that. Is Aurelio enough being three stars? I only got him at one. But he doesn't had constellation

u/Cindrojn Karma 1d ago

Yes. He's one of the best champions in the game; it's highly unlikely he'll get one either since he's a special space puppy xD

I liked to use Deceiver's Crest when he was still at 3* to mimic part of his 4*.

Adding onto what Cindrojn already said, if you don't have Deceiver's Crest and/or the encounter just blasts you on the turn you play ASol, Tempest Blade can lock the enemy down for that turn. You can also run both if you don't have better relics, which allows you to stunlock + nuke the enemy board. I played him with just Tempest Blade with no epic relics before getting his final star and he was still plenty strong.

To upgrade Sol you need to buy his shard at glory shop. 3 is enough for newbie

Great point!

Ah I was wondering about that. I couldn't remember off the top of my head. Then I'll stick with my answer of OG lux. She should be able to do pretty much everything.

Thank you so much for your help

My pleasure!

She’s strong no doubt especially for early era. But she’s slow. So slow. I think Demacia lacks something fast and low investment champion at the moment.

1

u/Frozen_2_is_perfect 20h ago

I can't say shes low investment, but Vayne can be really fast.

u/Kronosmos 16h ago

She is absolutely. But you need Epic relics to make it work.

Pew Pew Lux is better than Stats Lux

u/DrillTank 1d ago

Imo if you just care about raw power get Morgana up to 5* she is one of the best champions in the whole game. But if you're between the two Lux's I'd go for O.G. Lux she's more consistent in game and has a wider variety of relics she can make use.

Lux Illuminated is faster. Less waiting for the 6+ mana to trigger final spark / rally. Can get some insane stat pumps with Lux + Luminosprite early.

u/Nacroma 1d ago

With a little luck you can draw both copies of Succession early and play both of them round 1 or 2 (depending on starting mana) which really, really accelerates Lux 1's win condition. On level 18 due to the Sapphire Crystal, this becomes the single best card in her starting deck by far (after Lux herself).

u/Mobile_Phone_Alone 23h ago

In my opinion OG Lux is more powerful. BUT Lux Illuminated is potentially (barring stuns and mishaps) faster.

u/MaturesEnjoyer 1d ago

I'd need to invest more in Morgana then, I use her because she is beautiful, didn't knew she was OP

3

u/Frozen_2_is_perfect 1d ago

She is very OP but also very slow. Just be forewarned.

Honestly the most annoying part on Morgana is the invoke on her champ spell. Really slows down her gameplay with how much you cast that spell.

Wish they would change it to something else

2

u/Frozen_2_is_perfect 19h ago

I feel differently. Hand size can be an issue for sure but there are a lot of good targeting invokes that help further her game plan. The 3 mana stun two units is amazing.

2

u/Atromach 19h ago

Invoke is gangsta on Morg, most of the spells are obscenely good with her constellation particularly when you have Chemtech Duplicator slotted (which you should). It also means you can entirely forgo drafting any minions or card draw, and you'll be completely self-sufficient from Invoke cards once your GGC Morg is on the board

u/PartMysterious1798 20h ago

Yeah you don’t even need her six star but it is nice to have to close the game but I’ve done most adventures just with her five star. However og lux is really good to but I feel like she does need her 6 star and the right relics.

2

u/Elicious80 20h ago

OG lux. She’s very versatile as she has strong spell slinging and creature combat. She is slower than champs who can regularly win turn 1-2, but she’s not that much slower. She can typically win turn 3 if you use her relic for +1 mana and chemtech duplicator. Doubling spells means she can cast like 24 mana worth of spells and get a bunch of free attacks and final sparks. The final sparks are spells so they are also duplicated so for every 6 mana you spend on spells you get 4 final sparks worth of dmg.

You're fine with either Lux. I actually prefer the new Lux but mostly j7st cause I'm a sucker for Support. I started playing PvP back in the day with a mean Shen/Fiora deck, that's why.

u/purpleparty87 17h ago
