For the first time ever, I literally yelled at one of my teammates
not as a joke, not celebratory. In a tentacle induced rage. (note that this teammate happened to be sitting next to me at the time) I pride myself in being able to stay calm in game regardless of what bs is thrown at me, so this has properly rustled my jimmies.
I was marked by Illaoi and for the third time in a row, by a third teammate they killed the tentacles that were spawning off me. It's one thing in an ARAM, I don't give a fuck, but throw me a fucking bone on the Rift. I'm a support, I want to SUPPORT; it kills me to be away from my team during critical moments.... or at all really.
So, I thought of the brand new, totally never before thought of thing; If we happen to damage a tentacle within, say, 3 seconds of it being killed a tick is removed from the curse.
Now, this would only really effect duo lanes and after teams group, not her solo lane phase or the base poke she can dole out by snatching souls.
An alternate idea? all tentacles spawned by champions other then Illaoi are only tangible and visable to those they split off of. Thus, only the cursed can be hurt by or attack said tentacle.
td&lr I'm going to add my plea to the piles of others that ask that we don't have to last hit the god damn tentacles to get a tick off of Illaoi's curse. Yes it's meant to be a solo trial, but in gameplay it is beyond frustrating when u get a troll teammate or just one that isn't paying attention.
