So, what are Riots thoughts about illaoi?

I just played a recent game as her and forgot how fun she is to play. Her champion model, her lore, her attitude, her abilities, they are all overall very well made and she's a very entertaining pick to play...yet, we never see her.

On her release I felt like she would be completely overpowered, top tier pick due to lane harassment, and definitely in the meta, but she is no where to be found.

Out of all of the recent releases she has never seen competitive play, and probably never will due to ease of being played around in a 5 man team setting.

What do you guys have planned if anything with her? Seems to be a shame if she is just put to the way-side.
