Well she was non-existant in the first 7 months since release, so I'm not worried about it. Give her some time to shine.

Her heal needs a hard cap. She can heal way too much HP and it's way to hard to predict the swings in HP. If she couldn't heal for more than 15ish% of her HP she'd feel far more fair to play VS.

i thought she was pretty cancer pre-buff tbh, imo they really did go over the top with this buffing. It's silly how even missplaying hard they can still crush opposition.

Yep. She's impossible to lane against without recalling 24/7. She's always been ridiculous though, nothing new. I just don't understand why they'd buff her when she already was a living torment to fight against. The worst part is how ridiculously tanky she is without any tank items.

Yet she was still dog shit.

She might be too strong now, but before now she was garbo.

Honestly if she was to be nerfed it shouldn't be targeted at her mid game or late game,her early game is fucking oppressive

All thats needed is a nerf to the early cooldown of her E and then id be pretty happy,her E is pretty bull when she's ahead because if she's ahead you basically can't do anything as a melee champion

you get close?nah ill just Q and W you for trying to save your vessel

I don't really see a problem with Illaoi.

Out of all the juggernauts, she probably has the most counterplay in her kit.

Her tentacles are easily destroyed if you have range, attack speed, or an autoattack reset. Her Q has a 1.5 second delay, so it is easy to dodge. The healing is good Her W is only powerful for triggering her other tentacles, which have that same 1.5 second delay. Her E has counterplay on several levels. You can dodge it. You can hit Illaoi to contest your spirit (just don't let her slam you AND your vessel). You can walk away and just dodge two tentacle swings. Her R is very powerful, yes, but Illaoi has no CC and almost no mobility. When she ults, she has no way to stop you from literally just walking away. That isn't the ONLY thing you can do against it, but it is often the easiest option.
