Playing against Lillia

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Spread out to avoid a mass sleep with her R — she needs to hit multiple targets for a good R.

2

Her Q edge is predictable: walk into her body or back away far to avoid the sweet spot.

3

Lillia is very squishy despite her speed — a single hard CC kills her instantly if she can't escape.

4

Vision is important: her E (seed) travels across the map and applies the passive for a surprise R.
