Lulu Wild Rift Build & Guide

Innate Passive: Pix, Faerie Companion

Pix attacks with three magical bolts whoever Lulu, or the ally he’s attached to, auto-attacks. Pix’s attacks hit the first unit they collide with so it can be blocked using minions or by other champions.

Pix can attach to enemies and allies through Lulu’s 2nd, Whimsy, and 3rd, Help Pix!

When attached to enemies, Pix reveals the enemy which makes it a good counter for Wukong, Akali, and Vayne. 

Pix also attacks the enemy he is attached to when Lulu attacks that enemy so it will be almost impossible to avoid or block.

When attached to an ally, it works as an attack boost to your ally. It increases your ally’s DPS by a great deal and its effectiveness increases the faster your ally’s attack speed is.

If Pix kills a minion or a champion while attached to your ally, your ally will be credited with the kill so don’t worry about stealing last hits from your ADC.

If you need to clear a wave fast, target the minions behind so Pix will hit the minions up front while you damage those at the damage.

Pix waits for Lulu to move away from him a certain distance before following so you can slightly influence his positioning by moving to the side, which is important to increase the AoE of your 1st, Glitterlance.

Q | 1st: Glitterlance

Glitterlance is a great poking tool and it is a soft crowd control skill that slows by 80%, a huge amount.

Both Lulu and Pix launch 1 piercing bolt and you can influence where the bolts go by manipulating where you target the bolts whether near or far. It is far more important to hit many enemies than hit one enemy with two bolts because you are a support who wants to influence the battle, not simply deal damage.

Once you reach enough proficiency with Lulu, you might be able to hit two or more enemies who are far away from each other.

Targeting Glitterlance is more important if Pix is sent to an ally or an enemy because he will send his piercing bolt from his current location which will make it more or less harder, depending on the situation, to hit an enemy with two bolts or to hit more enemies with the bolts in general.

If Pix is attached to an enemy, the Glitterlance that he will fire will surely hit the enemy because it will fire at a point-blank distance. Drag the ability to a target location if you want to hit more than one enemy with it.

You can fire an extra long-range Glitterlance by sending Pix forward using 2nd, Whimsy. This combo is useful for sniping down low-health enemies or canceling recalls to delay their reset. You can also send Whimsy forward in bushes to catch them off guard with a surprising multi-directional Glitterlance.

W | 2nd: Whimsy

Pix creates a faerie ring that attaches Pix to the first champion that enters the ring. The Pix’s ring will prioritize attaching to enemies over allies.

When Whimsy affects an enemy, they become polymorphed, meaning; they turn into another form, an animal that cannot attack or cast abilities and has a reduced movement speed.

When Whimsy affects an ally, they receive bonus movement speed and attack speed.

As a general rule, prioritize using Whimsy to enemies to polymorph them because it is a strong crowd control. This is especially true if the enemy has a strong assassin like Lee Sin, Zed, Akali, or Fizz. If they are polymorphed near your team, they will be more often than not, dead.

Only use Whimsy on your ADC to increase their damage output when cleaning up team fights which means that the enemies have used their strong abilities already. The Whimsy buff is also useful when taking down Drakes, Baron, or turrets.

Remember that Whimsy also increases the target’s movement speed so use it on escaping allies and to chase down enemies when they are out of reach so you are unable to polymorph them.

Whimsy is your panic button, if you are jumped, tap this ability to turn the champion near you into a critter.

E | 3rd: Help, Pix!

Help, Pix! is a targeted shielding ability for allies and a damaging spell for enemies.

Help, Pix! Is an instant cast spell so use it reflexively to shield your ally against unavoidable attacks.

Also, immediately use it on enemies with invisibility, Wukong, Akali, Vayne, so they won’t be able to outplay your team with their invisibility.

The rule of thumb to follow with Help, Pix! is to use on your allies as a shield more often than to damage enemies.

In the laning phase, your ADC can provide the damage but if they have to recall, they’ll be able to dish less damage, get less gold, and less experience. So, use this ability to shield than to damage.

Help, Pix! is the only ability in Lulu’s kit that can activate the effects of Ardent Censer, Harmonic Echo, and Athene’s Unholy Grail.

The only time where damaging the enemy is better than shielding an ally is when you are the only one in range to secure a kill or to slow down an enemy that is nearing its death with an 3rd + 1st combo.

Spam Help, Pix! on allies for easy assists, you’ll gain an assist even when Ezreal or Jinx kills an enemy half a map away.

R | Ultimate: Wild Growth

Wild Growth enlarges an ally champion or Lulu herself and knocks up enemies immediately upon casting. The enlarged champion gains bonus health and slows nearby enemies.

Wild Growth is used to:

1. Follow-up on an initiation. Wild Growth is amazing when paired with a good initiation champion like Malphite, Amumu, or Jarvan IV because she can extend the crowd control the enemy team will receive. After the enemies come down from being knocked up or after they are stunned, they are met with a persisting slow and an enlarged AoE of the giantified champion. Again, wait for your ally’s crowd control to be almost over before casting Wild Growth for maximum efficiency.
2. To save allies. Do not hesitate to use your ultimate to save a fleeing ally. Wild Growth’s HP increase is not counted as healing so Grievous Wounds do not affect it so it is a good counter to Ignite. 
3. Use it on yourself to initiate. Although this is not a conventional one because as an Enchanter you want to stay back, you can use Wild Growth on yourself to initiate if you find yourself in a favorable position. Just make sure that your team can immediately follow up on you.
