The best way to counter Lucian is to pay attention to his ult at level six. Lucian can use his ultimate while he moves. He can use it to kite and deal damage to you.
Lucian’s damaging abilities all have a long-range, but they are skill shots. The key to winning against him is to have good awareness and dodge his abilities.
His Q passes through minions, so it’s best to stay at the side to avoid unnecessary damage. For instance, if Lucian is on the left side of the creep, stand on the left as well to prevent his Q from damaging you.
