Can we address Illoai and Voli?

Look I play Illoai and I love playing her. Her kit is one of my favorites and one of the funnest, but she needs a damage nerf. She is way too strong and easily stops squishy champions. WIth her damage levels she just builds armor and mr and she will stomp you. That seems way broken to me. Volibear too. If a champions can build item 3742 item 1401 item 3075 item 3065 item 3111 item 3083 and run around to a near unkillable state, it's really toxic and over done. His kit and damage levels combined with just pure health, armor, and mr lead to a very toxic champion. I think these type of champions need to be addressed. Malphite and others do the same thing. They should not be near unkillable and still maintain immense damage levels.

No. People need to learn to kite/CC.

I think Voli, after nerfs on W, is quite "healthy" per se.

Illaoi i see what you mean. But i think that kitting needs to be learned. Use these champs against people who are better than you overall, not just countering you, but higher elo, and you will see how these champs are relatively healthier than you think.

Now, if i were you, i'd ask for a slight/small Kled nerf to %hp dmg. Seems the recent change made him healthies, but he still deals excessive amounts of dmg, even after you kite well. I don't think Kled is OP, per se, but not as precise mechanics are required as people might think. Still, in a relatively better state than before, not as binary or feast or famine. However, still might need a slight change. I get if he can 1v1, that is fine, but if he can feed a bit then 1v2 or 1v3 seems like %hp dmg is going a bit too far. Not angry about that, just think it might need a second look. I'm fine if there is no change, games can still be won, but seems he does deal sick levels of dmg for the sake of it. Kind of like illaoi, but i think in a worse way because at least illaoi (illaoi does more dmg overall, but she is super easily kited and slow af).

Haven't played voli in a while. Bit I have had Illaoi on my team and against me. And i agree her dmg while full tank out put is Really Really high. Especially ult. Mainly her ult but also her pull dmg transfer. When she was on my team her and I got in a 2v4 and I died fast while when got a quad in like 2.6 secs. You can say oh just kite her all you want but that is not the point. That like saying just out play her or counter pick her. The point is balance and she is not. Simple fix. Reduce her dmg transfer and remove her heal when hitting souls and make her ult tentacles not stack dmg so hard. BOOM balanced with lots same usefulness.

Any competent team and ADC should destroy a volibear or an illaoi easily.
