Do Towers Target Illaoi Spirits?

They do not. We did try that at one point, but found it trivialized a lot of the play around killing spirits.

How scary is it to gank an Illaoi then?

'Cause she pulls your spirit under the tower (even if it won't target it), can safely damage the jungler, and the jungler either has to stand around and take it or leave and become a vessel

So does that mean the jungler would be dodging tentacle smacks for a full minute after they leave your lane?!

If you're trying to gank her near her tower and she gets to safety while hitting you with an E then yes, you'll probably take a bunch of damage as a jungler unless your ally laning there's got sufficient ranged tools to keep her busy. It's a play that's potentially fairly powerful, but dependent both on you as the jungler opting to try for a riskier gank and on Illaoi playing it well.

What are your thoughts on having Heimer and Illaoi duo bot lane? Complete zone control, grab a spirit into Heimer's turrets and let them wail on them, turn a three man gank into a pentakill. The possibilities!

Would love to see someone pull it off. Haven't seen it done personally, suspect it might do well against certain match ups but struggle a lot against some duo combinations.

Do you normally stay up until 1:00 in the morning answering random questions on the forum?

I would love to see a picture of Illaoi with 5+ tentacles around her, heimer with 3 turrets plus his ultimate turret, Zyra with 4+ plants up, and Teemo with a field of mushrooms all around an Azir with his tower up with the caption reading "Come at me, Bro!"
