Like Hey, I just played like 5 games against Illaoi this week, our toplaner was early like 0/0. Than she built 
and 
and it was done. She went 1v5 and got pentakill. Twice! I mean like, rito? What is this. Her passive has 120% scaling of maximum ad. So basically she just needs 2-3 tanky items and its done. Even her W deals like 10% max health base damage. Why shoudl she be so much broken?! [zombie-brand-mindblown] [zombie-nunu-bummed]
TheLivingFire4 votesAlways run when she ults ? With that mindset you will leave every objective in her hands and will eventually lead to defeat for you as well. The fact that she is so safe in lane for a late game monster is not acceptable She had low mana costs,she has low cooldowns,she has sustain,damadge,percent dmg,tankiness,crowd control, 1 ability wave clear Just think about it before saying :run when she ults. She is op and braindead and nothing can change that,ive played her and i know. The reason for her being one of the strongest champs is because riot wants to give more beginner friendly champs like garen and master yi so the noobs can feel viable. (also iam not in low elo) Illaoi needs longer cooldowns,lower base stats and helaing reduced by 40 percent so she can feel at least not so moronic. Her "skillshots" are so wide and easy to hit,they are spammable also so dont make excuse that she has to hit them and they are slow and hard to aim. Please Illaoi mains,face the truth,the champ has more positives than weaknesses and is truly broken and unfun to play against,she cant outplay,she just spams every spell and then presses R and 1 shots teams,thats it,thats your champ. Girls,dont hate me,play harder champs or at least dont defend the easy broken ones.
Lulurd3 votesShe's not broken, I used to think that she was broken and I learnt the secret. If you hear her ultimate sound effect just RUN, and if try as hard as possible to dodge her E.
If you dodge her E in the laning phase, she won't do anything and if you RUN the same moment she ults, she won't do anything.

She doesn't have counter play. Walks into a team fight presses R cleans up. Thats pretty unfair lol.
MalignMetal3 votesYou need to check the definition of counterplay, your version is definitely wrong.

That literally what she does tho. she presses R in team fights.
Sebastit7d2 votesExcept that she has no real way to engage to begin with. If you let her walk up to your entire team and "walk into a teamfight and press R" then chances are you and your team have no clue what you're doing. Just disengage from her, wait her ult out and that's it, she can't do anything.

there's also the fact that she requires so much setup of tentacles to really get the most out of her damage. Just take the fight elsewhere when she has tentacles, particularly ult tentacles. Or chain cc and burst her if she's alone so she can't press W. I used to play Illaoi a lot, but she's just too easy to counter when people understand her weaknesses.
Here's an example from a recent game of what NOT to do. Don't go near her when she's ulted, don't walk under the tentacles. https://streamable.com/a361j
Sebastit7d1 votesWhen they don't respect her tentacles she will obliterate anyone that steps up, her ult and anywhere with plenty of tentacles becomes a No-No zone for the enemy, if anyone walks up she will slam you, that's so simple to understand yet still people complain about her.
MalignMetal1 votesName 1 champion who doesn't do that

Maybe don't fight her near 3+ tentacles that will heal her for 15% missing HP on top of spellvamp. Literally walk out of it. That is the counterplay. She has 0 CC to keep you inside of her ultimate.
Jamaree2 votesOut of all the champions in the game, Illaoi has nothing but counterplay.
Everyone one of her abilities has delay.
She is a champion meant to be balls deep into combat but lacks both the mobility and tankiness in her kit to do such.
Her damage is shit if she isn’t near a tentacle.
If she misses her E, her damage is shit.
She has no real cc, her only cc is a slow that she can’t even really control when it slows.
She also has little control of said tentacles so her main damage isn’t reliable.

ive never seen her not near a tentacle tho. and it almost seems like its hard for her to miss.
Jamaree1 votesive never seen her not near a tentacle tho. and it almost seems like its hard for her to miss.
It seems like that until you play her. What you see are those people who hard commit to Illaoi so they know her strengths, what you don’t see are the games they feed the shit out of her with while figuring out her kit and had useless you are while waiting for your next tentacle.
Believe she is free this week, play her

its one of the slowest moving skillshots in the game
Galaxyburstz3 votesI've played League for 3 years and always thought that Illaoi was the most broken champion, eventually I actually learned that is very weak when you learn to punish her in lane, here are a few tips
1 she ults, you run, even if she has 200 HP if you don't run you well deserve to lose unless you are fed
2 avoid her E and either leave the zone when she has ult or fight her when she doesn't
3 trade when she does not have Mana, abilities are on CD, and take ignite to deal with the broken healing on her ultimate

Well my experience is only in low elo but still. kind of annoying to lose an entire team to that that ult that gives her ton of sustain and emga damage lol.
stefanfane3 votesIllaoi needs nerf. Period
Fabulous Velour2 votesEUNE summoner FidA05 PLEASE walk out of Illaoi's ult finally.
G0dartorias2 votesA better solution would be to just remove the champion XD because shes more brain dead than any top laner ive seen tbh
macspam1 votesHer R is legit too strong. Its like MF level damage without the whole channeling and squishy part
Ofkiz11 votesTHAS FUKING TRUE SHY NEEDS ONLY The Black Cleaver and shy is unstapoble
ThisManBaku1 votesShe shouldnt be viable at all, considering her kit, either remove her healing or remove her intirely...
