Illaoi Is Amazing! Kudos To Her Designers

I hope i spelled her name correctly, actually how do you even pronounce it lol. This champion is so amazingly fun, love her playstyle and her design, she is amazing. The spawning Tentacles is one of the coolest mechanics introduced in a long time in my opinion. Her E is hands down one of my favorite part about her! It is so much fun to see them cower in fear behind their turret as tentacle after tentacle spawns around them slamming down and cancelling their recall haha. Her attitude is hilarious too, she is a no bullshit kind of person and its portrayed perfectly through her actions and vo. Also the Tentacles dancing with her is hilarious, I spawned 3 of them near Gromp and just danced with them until minions spawned, it was epic.

I do however have some concerns or issues:

• Her early damage is insanely high, like way too high for most champions to even compete with her.

With 1 Tentacle, my Q, and my W i can bring someone down below 40% hp easily. Even ranged champions have a tough time getting near her at first as long as you can control your tentacles.

• Now this could be and most likely is my lack of knowledge, but it seems to me she falls off way too hard in mid game.

I know this like the direct opposite of the first point but its something that has been consistent in my games with her. I, and others, do extremely well laning phase, but then mid game rolls around and suddenly do no damage and die very quickly. I highly suspect this to be my lack of knowledge/experience/skill, but its definitely not just me.

• Her Passive isn't very clear as to how many tents she can spawn in one place.

Is it 1 tent per wall? Also some times it will spawn one on the enemy turret and other times it wont. Sometimes i will have one on the wall near my turret and it wont put another in that first bush. This could be a bug, but it could also be a lack of clarity as to how her spawning mechanics work.

• Her Tentacles feel very lackluster until you use her W.

They just sit there doing nothing until you W, even if you get your E off they spawn, slam down, then do nothing. I understand this is for balance reasons, she would be broken strong if they could AA on their own, still i can't help but feel underwhelmed by their usefulness.

• Her Tentacles miss very easily.

I know right now they hit for a shit ton but they do miss incredibly easily. If you move right when they spawn they will seemingly always attack where you were instead of where you are. Again, i understand they are really strong right now but i do believe they will be nerfed, so before that happens id suggest looking into their tracking first.

I can't really give much more feedback because i havent played enough games, hell some of these points may change as i keep playing her. She is so much fun though and not just because she is ridiculously strong early game, her playstyle feels very rewarding for proper spell use. She is a great champion overall and i am looking forward to getting better with her.
