Illaoi Is Ridiculous
I honestly do not understand how this champion made it past testing.

stop fighting under her tentacles. when you lane against illaoi, you have to play the illaoi mini game of dodging and killing tentacles.
The testers knew to walk perpendicular to her tentacles.
Because all of her damage is super telegraphed. Like, shes going to combo you so just walk around while your fighting her and dodge her tentacles. Not to mention that her winrate after release dropped to about 45% because she was just so usless. Like she didn't do anything because of how easy it is to play around her. She ults, Run away, then she's useless , she has no chase, her gap closer is super short and Her E is a thin skill shot with a long delay. She solely relies on her tentacles for damage, which you can kill before she ults meaning her overall damage is gutted.
Illaoi is one of the few champions that can 1v5 late game, if they catch you in the baron pit...
I can't tell if you're joking or trolling.
He was prety up on release ,but then riot buffed him like 5 times in a row.
Because Illaoi has no mobility and is useless without tentacles Which means she is really weak outside of lane if she doesn't have ult... and even with ult she still need to get in position to get off a good ult... and her ultimate is rather useless if she get CC'ed so she isn't able to cast her W (or is kept at a distance so she no target to cast W auto attack on)
She was not always this bad. Riot reconfigured her stats and numbers on abilities . . . . . so she is way to strong right now. The healing form her leap move is too high as well.
I don't find her that OP overall, but it is really annoying when she seems to be able to spawn an infinite amount of tentacles, so that the maps is just covered in them and you can spend all your time chopping down tentacles instead of actually fighting. It's bizarre to me; I don't know of any other champ who can put so much shit on the map, it's like if Azir could summon 30 weak soldiers instead of 3 strong ones, wtf, it turns the map into some kind of annoying clown fest.
I never played Illaoi so I don't know why some players can lay out seemingly dozens of tentacles super fast, while others can hardly lay a tentacle anywhere, but when the map gets covered with tentacles it's super annoying and seems incongruent with the mechanic of other champs like Shaco, who are limited in how much of their little minions they can spread over the map.
Ok, that's all I got to say. :)
