Playing against Milio

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

His R cleanses all CC: bait it with initial CC then engage with the real combo after.

2

Milio is very squishy and has no mobility — direct engages on him are very effective.

3

Focus him as a priority to remove the enemy ADC's peel.

4

His Q can be dodged with a sidestep — it's a relatively slow projectile.
