illaoi super underrated top champ

[tawny scaffold]

Can we agree illaoi is super giga strong?

[spice island]

In low elo maybe

People don´t know how to play against her and she gets gigafed then runs down the botlane

But otherwise I don´t think she is strong

[honest pebble]

She’s strong but a majority of her power is in her e and if you dodge that she’s pretty much dead

[fading violet]

Illaoi is a great anti-melee champ. she struggles with range of most types

[junior ember]

She’s really really annoying to go against

[mystic pine]

very easy to go against once you learn her kit

she's one of the worst champs in the game because her whole kit revolves around her e

[dire sage]

how do u play agaisnt her

she almost always gets superfed and then walks aorund like thanos

[mystic pine]

dodge e

shes not a champ without e

[dry island]

you can literally just walk away

[potent epoch]

against illaoi, u dodge the e or dodge the game

shes super easy to kite, she doesnt have speed or cc (no im not counting the slow if u walk away from e / e dies) so its hard to get anything done

other juggernauts like sett garen darius has speed or cc, illaoi has neither

[dry island]

you can LITERALLY walk out of E range and stand under tower while you kill the tentacles

its' free gold

minions throw themselves infront of her E which is super slow

if you're at the point where you CAN'T walk away from illaoi, you've already lost

[potent epoch]

well that is certanly not optimal but yea it does work. gold doesnt matter tho, u cometimes lose xp and gold from wave

not to mention u lose control of the wave aswell

[tawny scaffold]

Everyone is saying dOdGe E
Yeah no shit, but in higher elo gameplay you think youll be faker and dodge every E? No.

[potent epoch]

uh.. the higher the elo the worse illaoi becomes imo

but if u position well, its rly hard to hit her e actually

u wont dodge all of them, but if u dodge a majority thats good enough

[tawny scaffold]

Can agree on that one

[potent epoch]

basically shes rly good at what she does and nothing else, so if u avoid that strong side of hers she is just kind of a sand bag

[tawny scaffold]

but if she hits you with E!

then try and get a good death is my plan

[junior ember]

I hate how the cool-down of E is about as long as the curse is

Walk away with getting hit and when you’re back she can throw iT out immediately again

[dire sage]

yo everyone saying dodge e has to be the most useless advice

i cant tell my top laner to just dodge e and stop feeding

and then by the time its mid game it doesnt even matter if she hits it anymore she just thanos snaps the team

[dire sage]

thanks for this tho

[mystic pine]

it's the same for most matchups if they're losing to something like illaoi they just don't know how she works

if u just tell them dodge e

if they dodge e they shouldn't lose // shouldn't lose AS hard

[gilded breach]

Definitely not one of the worst champs when you still have to be weary of her ult even if she’s behind
