Her animations are just too slow. Any Hard CC deletes her. Her E, W and R are very buggy Passive only helps if you have a long laneing phase. Passive takes to long to spawn She is Very predictable and so all Skill shots can be dodged with ease. When behind she is worthless
SnackieCakes3 votesYes, Illaoi is both terrible and feels horrible to play.

5050BS2 votesYa I have posted many comments in the thread. Some of what they plan I like but dont think it will help her much. E curse is never where I have problems with her.
Its the ~3s combo till any damage. In that time you will be 1) CCed to death, 2) DPSed to death, 3) They walk away Yes if you can get past that 3s you REKT but that only happens if the other players are stupid. And if you dont believe me here is her combo
E(.75s animation), R(.5s animation, .25 tentacle spawn animation total .75s), W(.25 animation, .25 Tentacle animation) Damage does not start till 1.75s if you are not CCed between .75 and 1.5.
Her damage comes in intervals 1.75s they attack Spirit 2.0-2.25s they attack who you Wed 4.5s Next W tentacles attack 7s Next W Tentacles attack
Enemy has 1.5s between each to CC,Kill or run away. VERY easy to do any of those.
LostFr0st1 votesYeah I know exactly what you're talking about. I think E is just holding a ton of her power budget atm, so it's probably a good place to start. I'm not going to underestimate the vessel changes though since they won't be able to clear the debuff anymore. Once they have that down and they do a follow up pass or two I hope she'll be in a nice spot.
Crett1 votesIn the event that the enemy team tries to 1v5 a farmed Illaoi without hard CC, she will Tentakill, but that's just about the only strength she has at this point.
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesYou forgot to add absolute cancer to lane against.
dunkeroni1 votesIllinois is very strong. Stop asking for buffs just because there are ways to counter her. That's like saying Nasus needs a rework just because he can be kited.
Spoofghoul1 votesWhat you want is to make her work as a blindpick . . .
she is just like nasus and requires a team built around her
You need alot of cc elsewhere
Like a nautilus sup and a sion jungle
And have your midlaner grab a rylais
You need ways to engage fights and prevetn people from running away
The other strongpoint is that you cant really fight her and she can provide decent waveclear Makes her anoying af to lane against aswell as very good in defending objectives
She isn't that magical 1v1 god people want her to be that doesn't mae her badly designed or useless It is not her strenght
Eventhough she simply outstats most champion she doesnt have any real way to force them to fight her. outside test of spirit, which basically forces the opponent to take free damage, become this annoying vesselshit or fight her and lose anyway. Which imho is a badly designed ability but she kinda needs it too
