Please Nerf Illaoi

I personally think illaoi is so incredibly broken. It could be because of how strong all bruisers are atm, but I don't know how riot thought illaoi was anywhere near balanced when making her. Her q and e hitboxes are so broken and trying to dodge her q in lane is hard when the hitbox is so big. And her stupid broken e that late game does nearly as much damage as a mordekaiser ult and it's so easy to his with its broken ass hitbox. Is it so hard to sharpen the hitboxes so shit on this game can make some sense? I think the best thing about her has to be how easy her build path is. Build black cleaver and then whatever you need after, still bursting people down no matter what you build. She has percent damage on her mini dive, so first she can deal 10% of your health then if a tentacle hits then you've got half of your health gone unless you build tank. Not to mention her sustain if she hits someone with a tentacle, like what the fuck do you even do against her. She has nearly no mana problems with her mana costs, and her stupid ass e. That shit is cancer. If you're not paying attention then YOU GET SLOWED MY 80 % FOR 1.5 SECONDS. How do you even counter someone that can deal at least half of your health with a e,w,q combo and probably kill you with ult. I'm bronze, so I know I'm not that good, but she is so easy and braindead and seems like she has no counter.

Illaoi is NOT bruiser. She isnt tank either. Illaoi is JUGGERNAUT. Definition of Juggernaut: Humongous damage, very tanky and require idiot as opponent who will let Juggernaut hit him. Illaoi has to have huge damage because it requires extremely unskilled opponent to be able to deal that damage. And worst part is: Illaoi is SKILLSHOT based Juggernaut. So she is not only restrained by her mobility of a dead cow but also even if she SOMEHOW manage to get close to anybody, they can easily dodge all her abilities.

Illaoi is a lane bully that will punish you if you are braindead yourself. Which is why you are here, posting on the boards.

  1. Destroy her tentacles when you get a chance. It decreases her overall damage by a lot.
  2. Don't fight her in her lair of tentacles.
  3. Pick a ranged character to punk her. She will die easily because she only shats on melees.
  4. Avoid her ult. When she uses it, move the hell away rather than fight in it.
  5. Her E is slow and easily dodgeable. Hide behind a minion to block it if you are having trouble.
  6. If you become a Vessel, don't run in a straight line. Also, destroy those spawned tentacles to stop them from smacking you when you get a chance.

Illaoi wants you to get close and fight her. She wants you to keep sticking around when her tentacles are up. Because that is what her job is. And most players fall into that trap of thinking they could outfight her when she has her tentacles set up.

Maybe read Ralanr's comment.

Also, try to destroy tenticals whenever you can. She's way weaker without them around. If you have alot of burst damage poke her down to like 60% health then go in for the kill. All her moves are pretty easy to dodge, but if you let her have like 5+ tenticals in lane then you're in trouble.
