Playing as Illaoi

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Fight near walls

    Fight near walls: Prophet of an Elder God (passive) spawns your tentacles there, and each tentacle that hits a champion heals you.

  2. Hit the spirit you pulled

    After Test of Spirit (E), attack the spirit: it echoes part of its damage to its owner, and if it dies, the enemy is slowed and marked for your tentacles.

  3. Ult after the engage

    Cast Leap of Faith (R) in the middle of several enemies, after their engage or your team's: one tentacle spawns per champion hit, untargetable while it lasts.

  4. Recast W during your ult

    During Leap of Faith (R), recast Harsh Lesson (W) as soon as it's back: its cooldown is reduced, and each hit makes every nearby tentacle slam.

Playing against Pantheon

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his Shield Vault

    Take a trade when Shield Vault (W) is on cooldown: it's his only spell to leap onto you and stun you, on a 13 to 9 second cooldown.

  2. Go around his Aegis

    During Aegis Assault (E), go around him or wait it out: he ignores damage from the front, except from towers.

  3. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health gets too low against him: below a health threshold, Comet Spear (Q) deals much more damage.

  4. Ping when he leaves lane

    Ping your team as soon as he disappears from lane: Grand Starfall (R) lands him from long range, after a short delay that gives you time to get away.

  5. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Pantheon looks to get ahead early through his trades and roams.
