What is the logic behind letting enemies see illaoi tentacles in bushes? You can pop GP barrels in bushes and they do more damage than illaoi tentacles most of the time, slow, and has far more range. Not to mention GP gets move speed for popping them. This change completely fucked illaoi vs any range matchup since they can just run up with their safety net and just auto down the 2 hp tentacle.

The biggest issue atm imo is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHwmN9pshW8 The enemy shouldnt be able to see the tentacles from Fog of War and I honestly think it may be a bug cause I dont know how this would be fair in any way for illaoi especially in higher elo where they can really capitalize it cause they know your positioning.

So if illoai was jungling everyone could know where she is? that's so dumb. [sg-ahri-1]

Give her tentacles a range indicator, just like Heimy's turrets, so that we know what to hit with W.

Yeah.

I've been playing her a lot lately, and while she is really fun, it's kinda crummy that it's pretty much impossible to bait people into a bush on her. If I'm careful enough to get a tentacle into bushes without having a bunch of random ones around to give my location away I should be able to turn that into a play.

Agreed. Like you said, It does seem inconsistent.

I just wish they would fix her Bugs. She has soo many that hamstring her.

Which seems more likely to be seen in a bush, a barrel or a fucking 9ft high testicle?

am i the only one with the problem that when you ult 50% of the time it the tentecles around will slam on an enemy so i ult to try to get quick damage and healing off in a gank or to finish some people off and no tentecles slam and its really a coin toss whether it happens or not and those things happen to decide whether i win lane and dominate lose lane and get perma pushed in with my tentecles being farmed for extra gold while you cant make any gold from clearing zombie wards and these infinite boys item 2057

I could really care less. I hate laning against Illaoi, so....

GP can only hit 1 barrel, illaoi can hit all tentacles.

Tbh, illaoi needs a good ol round of buffs and nerfs. Her E is too oppressive to do much with elsewhere. Unless you can win a trade easily with her, she just does free damage and you cant do a ton back.

I honestly dont know how to get her design to work without being either gimmicky or oppressive.
