A quick review for Illaoi.

Mainly because of insta buyers. We all know there are going to be those people who rush the new champion and not have a slight clue of WTF they're doing here's a quick review of my experiences with her on the PBE.

Base-seems naturally tanky obvious, slow but satisfying animations really show her power.

Passive-unreliable, expect it to proc at the worst of times unless you're in line. They can spawn on base towers too, destroyed or not. They also heal you when they do damage so, +1

Q-a bit of a wind up time so do it right as the enemy is focusing on something else. Good wave clear nice damage.

W-Use as much as possible when near tentacles. Using this at the right time will allow you to destroy an entire team without them even knowing why they are dying.

E-Not going to lie, her E feels totally useless. It seems like the kind of thing that's cool for 2 secs and then is just an ability looking fora rework. It doesn't. You rip out the enemies soul and damage it for not a big return. Besides a new tentacles spawning and maybe hitting them. Would of liked it to feel, better, can be easily blocked by minions too.

R-Save them for when you're going HAM! Always use it at the start of the fight unless you're waiting for more tentacles to spawn.

Role-I've played all but ADC and support with her but I can say she can mid but it's jsut better to not go ful damage because of how she'll need to bait. Jungle and Top are good.

Despite her being a juggernaut I feel she's most powerful in lane because your passive will allow you to create death zones for the enemy. After that she seems to only deal that massive damage in seignes because her tentacles can get set up. Quotes-Exactly what you'd expect, except she talks about changing Bligewater.

Laugh-HARDY! Dance-Makes my question why she moves so slow when she can shake those hips so fast. Taunt-is basically "CAME AT ME BRO!" Joke-Animation will make you pause for a sec, very misleading, thankfully but the joke itself is k.

Shig'rokia Dosey Don't worry Illaoi, I don't break. You'll understand that when you play her.

R: op. I have seen supp tank illaoi doing triples with just ult and spam W E: useless? if it hits you and the debuff is applied you are forced to back to spawn; you cannot avoid the new tentacles unless you got a dash it is a great tool to poke during a pre-tf.

All they gotta do for E is make it a 1 second root when the slow ends

Why? the porpouse of the abilitie is: run and get the debuff or stay and fight. No root needed In my opinion the champ is OP

Yea but you aren't catching someone slowed by her e

They gotta give it a short root either that or increase the slow duration

I would go more for a slow duration extend

Only good part is that if you go damage, she's really not naturally tanky. Thing is, she's got high scalings and high bases, so she does a lot of damage without AD, building tanky.
