Regarding Lux, I haven't responded because I've been turning the thought over in my head for the last few days. I honestly don't see it, though. Yeah, I finish games with her with very few deaths, but that's due to being a hyper defensive playstyle with her, which isn't always the best route to go.
Lux is one of the characters where, if I were to go mid for example, I feel I would be pushed out by almost every lane opponent, to include other Lux players. When I am against them, I see a massive difference in skill with the harassment and eventually the out of nowhere suicide aggressiveness under the tower where I die and they get away despite having been caged. I don't feel in control of mid (or the game state) like I do with Malz or Kennen (or even Karthus).
I haven't decided yet who I think others are best at for now. For Waff, I'd almost certainly say either Karthus or Taric but that's almost due to being nearly the only characters I see him play (other than Garen or Caitlyn, sometimes Miss Fortune). Its such a small sample size that its hard to accurately compare them.
The same can be said of Teemer. I would have to say Amumu for him but primarily because he so rarely plays the other characters. That said, with him I can think of specific instances of Jax, Vlad, Teemo, Galio, etc and compare them.
For Kaden, I think if I were to name someone on the spot I would say he appears to feel most "in control" of what he and his opponents are doing when playing Nidalee or Zilean, though he puts great numbers up as Malz.
