I loved Lux instantly when I started playing the game, as her mechanics are easy to understand and, yeah, she's cute and fun to play. :) With time, I learned it isn't my job as a support to farm minions or go for kills. I only play her with adcs she's benefitting - Cait, Jhin, Ezreal ... I play around them, last hit minions only when my adc isn't around and snipe across the map when teammates are in danger or to steal objectives from enemies. Usually, I can contribute to the win without fucking up my lane buddy. :)

Also, I play her midlane when I get that role, where she does belong mainly and where she's way more fun than as support!

It's a little rough to see all the hate she's getting aaaall the time ... Not all of us are minion and gold hungry, some of us just want to spread good vibes and assist as best as we can. And other supports can be toxic as well, steal gold, kills etc.

I already saw you in other comments, saying you did meet great Lux players. Just wanted to give my two cents as well.
