3-1 Luxray really isn't all that bad, 2-2 is somewhat overated.
Roseanes or collectors for a uxie and an azelf. play the azelf first. you are almost 70% guaranteed a power spray on the uxie instead.
Don't do stuff like have a luxray active and then use an SP radar to get a Toxicraok or Garchomp C or something like that. try to check for the Luxray X when you use your first Collectors/Roseannes/Cyrus Conspiracy.
Your opponent will not power spray azelf IF they have reason to suspect that nothing valuable is prized

I think 2-1 runs well. That way you can bright look several turns in a row. 3-1 seems excessive since garchomp is your primary attacker unless you're playing a deck that is weak to luxray. Either way you want 2-2 garchomp.
3-1 Luxray is fine, that's what I run the 2-2 Garchomp Lv.X will help you out a lot.
3-1 is fine. I have played that and in some situations it is superior to the 2-2 line. Firstly as someone mentioned beforehand, 3 luxrays really helps your start and is pretty ideal for this deck. Also against Gyarados, you want to swarm luxrays, it is a tad harder when you only have two since Gyarados will just tail revenge it next turn.
I use 2-2 as in all other matchups, you just have a bad draw when you draw into a luxray gl midgame since you don't have anything creative to do with it. Also since you don't run claydol, it will just clog up your hand etc.
But 3-1 is fine and is still very playable, don't be put down and it is still unlikely to have a luxray in your prizes anyway.

2-2 Luxray lets you Azelf for other things in the Prizes (since you don't have to worry about having Lux X in there), and lets you have another Bright Look which is most of the time, very crucial and clutch.
That being said, if you can't go 2-2, 3-1 is the next best choice. Bait out the Sprays with more Uxie/Crobat.
dmaster out.

I could say something about a 3-1 vs a 2-2 Lux x.
3-1 line leaves a 1 in 10 chance that its prized
2-2 has a 2 in 10 chance that ONE is prized, but the odds of both being prized drops. ( I think its like 1 in 100)
A 2-2 line gives you some consistency. you pretty much will never have both end up prized, and if it does happen, you can ko to get one out pretty fast anyways.
3-1 is less costly ($ wise) but more risky. But you will probably be fine with it. Garchomp is in lux decks for a reason. they complement each other. You don't really need the 2-2 unless your planning on winning some major tourneys.
