Illaoi's Dash Can't be Stopped

Tarbtano··1 votes·901 views

Tested it with multiple characters such as Thresh's flay, it seems like 'Harsh Lesson' is the only targeted dash that can't be canceled out. Leona, Wukong, Fizz, and Quinn all have very similar mechanics behind their dashes and yet they all can be stopped if you react quick enough with the right ability. So far, it seems like Illaoi is the exception. If for instance a Thresh flays 'Harsh Lesson' back, she just bounces back momentarily before instantly rebounding to land the hit.

Is this a bug?

Possibly. Though Jax's dodge still avoids it. I'd imagine Pantheon and Teemo can counter it as well. Though I can't remember if it stops the tentacle strike.

Sounds harsh. Might not be coded as a dash for some reason. I know Leona's e sometimes will continue after a flay or Alister headbutt. Not sure why but could also be like a animation buffer for the actual trigger.

It might be that her dash isn't "consumed" until her attack lands

It's not a dash, in the classic sense. It's an on-next-attack ability.

Seriously? Illaoi's regular dash is better than Dragon's Descent?

Riot's racism against Dragons is showing harder than ever.
