Illaoi's E is way too oppressive

When she lands her E, I feel like giving up on the game. I can stay and fight to reduce the duration by one second whenever I do damage... but then again even that seems worthless.

Why you ask?

Because she can ult and ill get destroyed, along with her having an Item like Death's Dance....

WHY THE HELL AM I MARKED AS A VESSEL IF I DECIDE TO STAY AND FiGHT???? That slow feels physically painful after doing something that should have been rewarded, which is fight her. Now I can't even bother to back anywhere safely after taking 0 counterplay damage...

Play Fiora. Laugh at her as you bait her ult and then dash away from her and walk out of range of her ult tentacles. Wait for it to wear off, ult on her and proceed to kill her

bait her ult out and then engage her after it's over. illaoi is entirely centered around making you over-commit and blowing you up for it. or you could dodge the E and then all-in her because she won't get the free tentacle damage on your spirit, and no damage multiplier because no spirit

Now I can't even bother to back anywhere safely after taking 0 counterplay damage...

it's one of the most telegraphed abilities in the game and you can just back next to a tentacle that's already swung at you. they only swing once every 10 seconds and they won't spawn if there's already one near you.

Then learn to dodge or stay behind minions. If she ults, just walk out. Why would you stay inside? You're not a Vessel unless she kills it or you leave. Besides it's better to just leave immediately so she can't reflect damage.

Stop crying. You are calling one of the easiest fucking abilities in the game to counterplay "0 counterplay". You're bad at the game.
