Key takeaways
- Current data slightly favors Janna, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Lux wins 46.0% of 328 games (95% range 40.7–51.4%).

- Lux usually wins the lane: 284 gold ahead of Janna at 15 minutes on average (324 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
- Janna gets stronger as the game goes on: Lux wins 68.9% of games of 25 minutes or less but only 40.8% of longer ones.
- Lux players pick Domination far more often against Janna: 54.8% of their other Support games, 63.1% here.
How we calculate this
Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.
A game only counts when Lux and Janna played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.
The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.
Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.
"What changes" compares Lux's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).
Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Lux Build vs Janna
Usual Lux build (Support)
88.1% win rate · 42 games
Limited sample: 27 of 116 games finished this exact core, so treat it as an observation rather than a recommendation.
- Lux usually completes Luden's Echo first, at 13.9 min (median of 229 games).
- Janna usually completes Moonstone Renewer first, at 13.8 min (median of 184 games).
- Skill priority: E > Q > W — the same as usual.
Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
