Lucian/LOL question
So assuming your team has absolutely no CC, would it be a good choice to get a Rylai Crystal Scepter on Lucian, allowing him to land his Ult A LOT easier?
BTW, since it is Lucian and this is Basil, I have a feeling that most likely everyone is gonna make some racist jokes, so... don't...

[quote=KaMdAm]No CC? Can you list a whole team comp with absolutely no crowd control? I'm too lazy to think of one.

Shyvanna top
Master Yi jungle
Mordekaiser mid
Sivir adc
Nidalee supp?
Does that work?

well i mean it is possible to do
yi - jungle
katarina - mid
nidalee - support
fiora/mordekaiser - top
but to make a team like that is retarded.
[quote=wk70129]Well I sorta got the idea that Rylai MIGHT be a somewhat okay idea considering that Lucian is a kiting, chasing ADC, so the slow might have helped. I COMPLETELY forgot about P/hage (darn Basil mods) . I haven't really bought him, it that's in your mind, I'm just sorta wondering if there are any other possible builds besides the common Meta ADC build
Edit: @KaMdAm any idiot who chooses to support as draven, jg as heimer, mid as sona, and top as karthus... well u get my point.[/quote]
Jg heimer works, ap sona... U have no idea how good she is if u know how to land ur aa
You pretty much just wanna stack damage on Lucian to take advantage of his double attacks after skill uses. That combined with the scaling on your skills allows for pretty good bursting throughout most stages of the game. He's not a great ADC or anything, but I'd say he's still viable, I'm still learning him though so idk.

I don't think there are people dumb enough to play those respective roles and champions in a ranked game.

@Instinct: Lucian actually uses Botrk quite well (assuming you didn't know), I pass on triforce and take a frozen mallet or shiv, but that's just me.
@darkorbit6: Forgot what all of the changes were. So I'm just going to trust you.
Lucian counters Renekton's malaria shield.
The ult is something I use defensively or to just decimate creep waves at the enemy or friendly base. It's easy to land as you can simply strafe, but it is also easy to dodge.
@misterfuji99 triforce also no longer has icy if that's why you recommended it
Edit: His ult scaled the number of shots with attack speed, if I remember correctly
Edit 2: An alternate formula for calculating the number of shots fired is 13 / 15 / 17 (+1 per 20.9% / 17.4% / 14.9% AS). This formula may prove more useful for calculating the efficiency of builds outside of the game where AS is presented as a % bonus rather than as attacks-per-second.
Also, Rylai's slow bonus is 15% with his ult.
stop spraying! learn to aim a headshot come on its not hard
Lucian is a trash champ. unless he has some insane 2/3.0 ap ratios on his abilities, then no, don't build rylais.
if you want to kite, get bork, mallet, or p(h)age/triforce.
Also if you were getting rylais to land your ult easier, you would be getting it as your 5th/6th item. by the time you get item 5/6 your ult is almost obsolete, because your autos will do much more with a standard ADC build.
I don't see how you could think buying a Rylai's will help.
On topic though, if you can't land it through sheer aim/skill, slows won't help you. It's a bad ultimate, and it does bad damage, it'd be better to just use it for clearing minion waves, and -maybe- pressuring in lane.
