Illaoi OP WHEN THE NERF COMING IN!?!?!

Pickehcard·Aug 28, 2016·3 votes·405 views

can someone please explain to me why they have not nerfed this op champion?.... this makes no sense to me.... they make a champion that can poke without even moving... she litterally stops you from killing minions by doing nothing.... on top of that she can grab your soul and keep on hitting on it and you can do nothing about it! and can someone please explain to me why they made her untargetable for 8 seconds after he ult..... this champion is a tank and has ridiculous amounts of damage. Normally i do not call champions op because they are all op in their own way which makes them even.... but this pushes the line.... you can't do anything in lane you cannot even try to play safe under tower. Please Riot nerf this champion.

1.) Poke without moving, just dodge it laterally 2.) If she grabs your soul, attacking her makes it so the soul goes away faster 3.) she is not untargetable after ulting, just her tentacles 4.) she is not a tank, she is a juggernaut

Her Q speed literally has no change at all, and you lots called her "weak" & "suck" at release. Sidestep that slow tentacle.
See that tentacle being spawned on the wall? Don't wait. Kill it.
Her E can simply be blocked by just one minion. Either sidestep it, or hide within your minions. Soul got taken? Hit her.
If you grouped up to let Illaoi ult all of you at once, then it is ENTIRELY you & your team's fault.
Illaoi's ult does not make her untargetable at all. Only if her tentacles hit someone, she regains some HP.

you have left some valid points but you say "just attack the tentacles as soon as you see them" ... they will attack immediately and would have already done their damage, and i said her tentacles were untargetable not her. "just attack he when she is attacking your soul?... well see i would try to but i have already been hit by her tentacles a million times and do not even have the hp to do anything on top of her tentacles attacking me while i am trying to get hey while she has my soul.

Tentacles only attack you if it's either:

Illaoi landed a W on you with her tentacles nearby.
You got E'ed completely, so tentacles will attack you immediately after spawning.

A tentacle itself without any help from Illaoi will do nothing at all. So if you see one tentacle being spawned, no need to worry about it, it only attacks you if Illaoi W'ed you.

The number of tentacles being spawned counts from how many people Illaoi manages to hit with her ult, so like I said, if you guys grouped together near Illaoi giving her the chance to make a 5-man ult, then it's entirely you & your team's fault. If she does manages to hit lots of you with her ult, negating her to W will decrease her chance of survival, so silencing or stunning her through her ult duration can really cut a ton of slack on her. Reminder that her ulted tentacles will only attack if Illaoi lands a W.

Attacking Illaoi best benefits to let the spirit fade away faster, plus putting more pressure on Illaoi herself should she choose to stay & get poked for free while trying to rekt your spirit. While hitting her, do not attack on such a position where her Q can hit both you & your spirit in a straight line, so be prepared to sidestep it. If it really seems impossible to poke her off, run out of range from your spirit to gain the most minimum damage possible.

Everytime someone says she is op i refer to this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLiTGQML3pI Ignore the killing tenticale part to end vesel state, this is before the changes.

The OP is sort of right, don't be mean man. Illaoi is a juggernaut and juggernaut kinda is still a tank, Riot calls them tanky melee carries on their Juggernaut update. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/page/gameplay-update-juggernauts

i have watched a total of 1 min of this and already seen why this is stupid.... "her safe space" anywhere her tentacles are.... but that is the whole lane!..... on top of that with her ult she can make "hey safe space" which once again makes you able to do nothing... but i will continue to watch the video. On top of it, he mentioned how you should not go on when she has your soul.... when as my statement before was true "you can't do anything when she grabs your soul"

His analogy is a bit weird, but when i applied them it was pretty effective. For the safe space part all it really means is don't fight in her tenticales, she ult you kite or CC her away from it, or else you gonna lose 100%. Her single tentacle slap just from the champion is pretty easy to dodge tbh. I am not saying she have really overpower damage at the moment, but at least this gives you a bit of way to work around her. And the part where he said mid game her pull is basically as bad as a blizcrank hook is a pretty good assessment.
