Yeah you gotta tone Illaoi's damage waaaaay down

As soon as you've built black cleaver A tentacle slam does like 20% of a semi armored targets health

If you hit an E on someone with two offenses, then that shit is going to do 70% of their hp and theres nothing they can do about it. And if you walk out of range, the tentacles that spawn are going to kill you so you can't even B, on top of that the E has like no cooldown. You get PUNISHED for counterplaying it by walking out of it.

Did you know 1 tentacle smash at 300 AD does more damage than an evolved isolated Kha'Zix Q? Yup.

Everyone says "Don't fight in the ult" so every time she presses R it's an instant disengage from your team? Don't you see how there could possibly be a problem with that?

Just look at this, I got hit by a tentacle, then she ults, then in less than about a second and a half I'm dead. You need to tone this down, like a lot.

Like not 1v3 level.

Inb4 "dodge the tentacles" yea thats kinda hard when I'm slowed for 80% from correctly playing against the tether.

See, there's one point I need to correct you on.

The actual counterplay to her e, which isn't immediately obvious, is to hit Illaoi. Damaging her reduces the time the spirit is out of your body. You're not playing correctly by running out of the tether range, unlike every other tether in the game.

Obviously this is situational, much like many other things, but just blindly running out of her range isn't always the best option, especially if you have a range advantage on her or she's poorly positioned (especially in lane, but to a smaller extent later in the game).

Also, I've not once been hit by vessel tentacles unless I'm already fighting someone else, I'm really not sure why people find them so hard to avoid.

yes, she does tons of damage, and in AoE to boot but she also has no cc and is one of the most kiteable champs in the game. damage is the only thing she brings. nerf that and she's literally useless

Who needs kite when you get hit by a skillshot and it does 70% of your health and you cant do anything about it :^)

Why are you with this build item 3147 item 1400 item 3142 item 3077 item 3117 item 1036 as Khazix (an assassin) trying to assassinate an Illaoi who is a Juggernaut just like Darius Garen Nasus Mordekaiser who excel at high damage when in their zone of control (melee range) and have well above average defensive stats?

While Illaoi is indeed overpowered.... she gets split in half by Darius .

So I guess top lane is broken.

Darius is in fact strong, yes, but if you look at the match in question, it was against a darius top who was 2/0 and still got whooped.

OP obviously hasn't seen enough hentai to know where this is going.
