Illaoi General information
Illaoi tips and tricks
Illaoi’s Q is a great poke tool and is great for wave control too. However, it is slightly more expensive than her
W. If you can, try and use a terrain Tentacle instead of your
Q to trade with the enemy. Essentially, they will do the same job at the cost of less mana!
Take advantage of your W auto-attack reset by (when applicable) walking up to the enemy, auto-attacking once and then using your
W.
Illaoi’s Ultimate R has a brief moment of unstoppability at the beginning. This can be used to dodge critical crowd control that would otherwise limit your damage potential.
