Illaoi opinion

Come on you guys , Illaoi and Gangplank use to date and she's a Kraken princess...does anyone see the complete ripoff to Pirates of the Caribbean? Along with the whole bilge water crap it all ties so easily because it's already been thought of before... nice job riot.

Regardless, Illaoi is still more awesome than Tia Dalma. Also she isn't a god imprisoned.

And GP really isn't anything like Davy Jones.

Kinda feels like you're going PIRATES! KRAKEN! ALL IS SAME!

And it feels like you're just generalizing what I said. League has an amazing world and this new champ uses ghost...there's a whole island of ghostly boyfriends for her to be tied to and they picked the most copycat to a movie series...really???? Her lore and story would've been way more original if they used ANYTHING else but they decided to make it identical to PotC. Also a Kraken is not the only animal in the sea they could've used any of the thousands of animals that inhabit the ocean with way more interesting stories and backgrounds than the already burned out and overly used kraken. It's so redundant and stupid

Well i understand your objection, but don't you feel that we should at least wait for some voicover or lore piece (no Shadow and Fortune does not count in this case i'm afraid, we knew almost nothing about her) before making some judgement? I mean, ok, the love story between Illaoi and GP might be a simple copycat of Tia DalmaxDavy Jones, but is that the greatest of problem? I mean, Illaoi looks different from Tia, considering she doesn't look so much voodoo related after all. I don't know, this is just my opinion, i think we could at least know a bit more about the character before saying if it is nothing original, after all what we knew until now was just that she was a priestess and that she had an affair with Gangplank that's all i'm saying.

Well, considering that Gangplank isn't a squid-faced fuck and Tia Dalma wasn't a Kraken princess... no actually, no I don't.

Riot is known to completely take on things from other sources.

I know but it's so blatant most other champs have their backgrounds kinda hidden but this one ties it so out there.

Did you read Shadows and Fortune?

After Playing several games against Illaoi, I found if she loses lane or even goes neutral in lane against certain comps she becomes totally irrelevant to point were it felt she like she stood in the middle of team fights and just watch her die. Because, no form of peel for her teammates. As well, when Illaoi does not get the chance to build damage items b/c she force to build tank since she lost lane; you would win lane even harder.

Shouldn't this be in gameplay?
