Lucian is back to TFT with his deadly guns to make sure he kills his enemies with style; he might not seem as strong as he was last season as he is only a one-gold champion, but he knows what to do.

Lucian is a strong champion, as his passive grants him bonus damage as well as tonnes of damage once he activates his skill, hitting multiple bullets in the enemies’ direction.

In this article, we will talk about the best ways to create combos to place Gnar within them, his best items, and how to make sure you get to first place using him in your games.

Smile? ...Alright

Lucian is a really good choice in early game rounds as he can help you deal some damage and win early rounds as he shares the InfiniTeam trait, which summons a portal that duplicates the champion.

Lucian also shares the Quickdraw and Renegade traits, where Quickdraw allows him to fire an extra bullet for every two fired and the Renegade trait allows him to deal more damage, especially if he is the last champ standing.

Lucian’s stats, traits, items, and everything related to him will be discussed below to make sure that you get the best outcome when placing him on your team.
