I don't find him too strong There's plenty of counterplay to him

If you look at his play rate, you'll understand why he's allowed to stay as strong as he is for multiple patches. Plus you should be building more health. Dealing a lot of true damage is velkoz's niche thanks to the mid year mage update.

Actually was always his niche. MYMU just gave him some more

Your fault for getting hit by the rest of his abilities first.

??? So what? They're still all clearly broadcasted skillshots. Don't get hit by them.

His Q, E and R already have CC stronger than Rylai's Crystal Scepter's slow.

The only thing that affects is his W.

Q - Slows people, but still ez to dodge.

E - A knock-up that requires proper timing.

But sure, Rylai is indeed the problem....

Q and first part of W are not easy to dodge + his ult applies passive stacks itself, so..

Astôlfo2 votes

You shouldn't be at a distance where his Q or W are point blank anyways. And you shouldn't be in a position where you can't get out of his ult long enough for it to matter.

Dont you main Illaoi? How are u gonna do anything against him when you cant be near him and how are u gonna get out of his 1550 range ult that slows?

Astôlfo1 votes

Why would I be 1v1ing him like that in the first place? Even if I were to 1v1, I's preferably flank first and rip out his soul. Dodge Q/W/E. Start hitting soul. If he burns his laser, I'd just run, because it was a waste to use it on just me at that point. If he doesn't, I'd either kill the Spirit or ult and kill him/force a back.

Penns1 votes

How do you explain his insane win rate for the past few months then?

Astôlfo1 votes

Because he's fairly well-rounded? His laser isn't an/the issue.

Vanic9981 votes

He has a low play rate.

Penns1 votes

I wouldnt really call 5% low tho.

An ability can be overpowered even if you can dodge it, just saying.

Astôlfo1 votes

Considering he needs to hit every skillshot for ultimate to do true which holds him in place locked in position, not really.

But in general, yes. But there are no skillshots like that at the moment.

math please

It's weird how he's seen no play at worlds so far. I think they might be saving him for the knockout stage. Samsung played Ryze though, and did well with it! Hype!

World's balance is drastically different than the normal game. It's not even about skill either, it's about coordination, comp strategies and team tools. Regardless of if he sees worlds play, he is still super oppressive in soloq from Bronze 5 to Diamond 1.

Because Velkoz isn't completely cancer to lane against.
