Exhaust is too useful for shutting down an ADC in lane and later on for disabling a powerful champion or emergency peel.

I like to play aggressively in lane and trade with opponents early and often, so all the armor I can get is required. Magic Penetration marks are also excellent.

Advanced Lulu Page

I stole this page from NydusHerMain, a diamond support player. The page is as follows:

Marks: Magic Penetration

Seals: Armor

Glyphs: Magic Penetration

Quintessences: Ability Power

With this page, you will be hitting like a truck at the expense of gold and defense. You will be vulnerable to focus fire and harassment yourself, so grab a high number of potions when using this method. This page will feel powerful in the hands of an experienced Lulu player, but I would not recommend it for someone learning Lulu or the support role. If you are looking for more offense, start by using magic penetration marks and work your way up.

This tree gives you basic defense against harassment in lane, buffing up your health and armor while also digging down in utility for the extra experience and gold. Meditation is absolutely required because Lulu burns through mana fast. Pickpocket turns out to be a nice bonus, rewarding you for harassing your enemies, and should pay for itself pretty quick. Awareness is a mastery I personally like in this tree, since as a support you'll have the least access to experience points on your team, and it makes sense to make them count a bit more.

I don't bother for the biscuit and ward masteries, but if you like them then drop Artificer, Pickpocket, or Awareness for them.

Glitterlance is your main control effect and damage source. You will use it to harass, slow enemies, push lanes, and everything else. It should be maxed first, each rank will increase the slow duration by a quarter of a second and increase the base damage. It's your most important spell, don't neglect it!

The standard start against an average matchup is generally a  with some number of potions and wards. Splash in a  if you prefer, but it's not required. I usually opt for three  and three . It's nice to have the extra health when you are trading aggressively. I also like to do  sometimes, in a start like this: . I do this when I know health regeneration will be more important, although you need to watch your mana carefully.

Since the cost of  was increased, I don't start off with it anymore. You'll only begin the game with two , which can be quite punishing if they pink out one of them or you have to use one to protect against invasion.

For the core item suite, you should aim for this and also getting  when you need to control an objective, usually Baron.

If you can afford it, a  should be your first item. If not, begin buying  components and finish it first. Then buy  and . Upgrade it to  at your leisure, probably sometime after you finish your tier two boots.

After that, build a   to get a bit of extra AP and gold income. I don't build a  every game, but it's a component for several good Lulu items, so I'll probably be getting it more often now.

 are your favored boots, because cooldown reduction is very good with Lulu.

 is sometimes good if the game is very frantic and you find yourself needing to zoom over the map. Usually this happens if we drop a tower early and find yourself invading and pushing other lanes. You can also perform surprise ganks or help teammates skirmishing elsewhere. I see lots of support players aiming for these boots, so it's definitely a good option but remember that CDR is very rad.

Main Support Suite

Other Situational Items

A good upgrade for your , this item adds another control effect to your repertoire. It's a solid support item because of its competitive cost and cool effect. It also keeps generating gold, an awesome perk.

This item has undergone a lot of changes, but the most recent one helps us out quite a bit. Now it builds from , meaning we'll have an easier time getting it. The spell vamp is a pretty big deal for a lot of champions and should help your team a lot of you are either a poking/kiting composition or just massive area of effect damage. The main drawback is this is an expensive item and buying a  is awkward for Lulu.

A natural buy for the bruiser heavy team or if you just have a fed , the only problem with Zeke's is the formula is very awkward for supports, so just hang onto the  until you can buy it all in one go.

For when the game goes REALLY long, go big or go home. Get this fancy hat or even just a  will help your spells tremendously.

The chalice might seem out of place, but let me explain. As you play Lulu more often, find more uses for her skills, get more confidant with her abilities, you'll find that you can burn through mana pretty quick. A  with masteries might not be enough, in which case a chalice might be a good investment. Also it's a component for the following support item:

This item will be great versus certain types of opponents such as , , , etc. Usually there will be some annoying effect on the other team plaguing your ADC, and this item can also heal them quite a bit as well.
