Illaoi... Is it me or she's useless?

Bought her last week and played a few games and her kit is pretty bad. She's slow and her ult requires u to be in the middle of their team to be useful and even then they most likely will just run away or CC you and kill before you can even press W to prioritize a target.

In lane she's countered by anyone with mobility and range and she's not a good split pusher.

Except after a nice Sej/Mumu Ult engage for an exemple, I simply don't see how her kit and ult can be useful.

Her ult should have more range like a leap or something.

What do you guys think?

Her kit sucks, her art design sucks, her lore sucks.

But her numbers are so astronomically high that she will never not be a viable character. She is the worst kind of stat-check.

She's more of a niche pick I'd say. She only works with certain types of comps.

She's good if you have a team that can cc really well, her damage stupidly high if you can get several people with your ult and can hit people in lane with several tentacles

From my experience she's pretty decent in low elo since people never seem to walk out of her ult.

Illaoi is garbage in higher ELO's, but could be used to some effect in gold/silver given that her laning is pretty strong and can snowball out of control easily.
