@@ReusExnot actually, if you are playing Darius and she hits the E, its not like she could just stop there and hit the clone, you would easily stack on her and out damage her
Great video, but you could also put in 3-5 champions that counter champion mentioned in a video Edit: guys I know how to counter Illaoi, Im just giving author ideas how to improve his ''how to counter'' videos :)
Best champions that are easy vs her, I recommend mordekaiser and gwen the most because they are ap so she cant buy frozen gauntlet and they have tools to ignore a large part of her kit and shred her high hp. Twisted fate is a good one as well because he can't really be all inned ever by illaoi especially when running ghost fleet and he can trade from range letting him free scale TL;DR, Gwen, morde, tf are really good easy illaoi counters
I used to main illaoi. Yorick and Gwen are dodge/bans and completely dumpster illaoi. If I had to pick any champion it would Yorick bceause there is no counterplay whatsoever. Other lseser counters are vayne, quinn, teemo, cassio, tryndamere, akshan. Good illaoi players can beat Mordekaiser, but is difficult and the window of opportunities are very low, so for that reason mordekaiser can also be considered a counter.
As an Illaoi main i can give a small tip with anti heal vs Illa OI, Bramble vest is not that good vs a decent Illaoi since it doesnt apply if you are hitting the spirit (E Ghost). This means that as long as illaoi is not W or AA you directly shes not recieving the anti-heal
Not going in recklessly and respect his early strength (unless you play WW) and always go for short trade and avoid/bait his e If you have more than 200 hp advantage while he's low then try to get close to him if he tries to Q and finish him off Also buying MS and anti slow is a good choice since he don't have mobility and all he got his a hook into a slowing auto
Good video but I would advise revising it and removing bramble vest as a suggestion or at least imply that executioners is better. Illaoi's main all-in and trade damage will come from hitting your spirit and unfortunately bramble vest anti heal does not apply to that
hey man, ive been watching a couple of your videos. the info given has helped me consider more options and even options that I didn't even think of like shielding to counter percent max true damage. I subbed and look forward for more :)
I like these videos, it's simple logic but sometimes it gets overlooked, it's very useful, I'm looking forward to one on darius, mordekaiser and camille.
i think someone mentioned this already, but including counterpicks is really nice for dealing with champs. I think showing general game plans is still nice, since you can apply the concept to any champ you play top (for the most part), so good work nonetheless, love the content.
Main Illaoi here, Imma drop the best advice against her: just ignore her. Legit, with the changes on bami and how low she moves you can easily proxy her into oblivion until min 14 and she can't do anything about it. If she goes after you she loses 2 waves and if she keeps under tower you'll gain plates and possibly the kill. Best champs for this strat: Garen, Rammus, Sion, Volibear, damn I was destroyed by a proxy Irellia once.
Thanks for the video. I've following since the first ones. I would appreciate if you make one regarding how to draft as an adc, since I don't actually know how to pick my champion regarding the situation
Illaoi has 0 ways to force you to commit, its why she's a bad champion in higher elo. She stat checks most champs in her ult but you never actually have to fight her inside of it. You always have the option to walk away after baiting it and just re-engaging once its gone/on cd.
You either pick Jax and turbo stomp them the entire game or you pick fiora and you wait for windows to punish mistakes and you outscale them. Or pick trynda!
Hello Havoc! I figured a very useful video I'd appreciate you created! It has to deal with vision and bushes, and when is it that you gain vision of someone if they attack you or you just attacked them... Just a brief introduction that could explain the mechanics behind using a bush to its full potential Have a great day
so how to counter her if i can't dodge her E? i need some alternative, i just don't have the reaction time or react impulsively right into her E(that happens on any lane)
@@storbonne wouldn't say so. She struggles against chaps like full AP malphite, Kyle and others with constant dps. She is focused to nullify CC/single burst damage, but will have trouble against champions who does not rely on single strike to deal most of dmg and who will not let her heal. I like to play attack speed Sett vs her, most of Fioras I face try to W my W or my E, but I just punch them to death instead.
I’m no expert but maybe toplane Akali? When she’s in W fiora can’t hit weak spots and she’s also very mobile so she can outmaneuver, you can even wait out her ult in w. Akali also doesn’t rely on heavy cc that fiora can counter with her W. But idk that’s just my take
Any chance you make videos talking about items and if you should finish them or start buying others? Anti heal are a great example that you should not finish them
How to counter Yorick? Outside of playing an AA champion. Say if I get counterpicked on Aatrox, Darius or another champion that struggles to deal with his ghouls.
One advice I can give for her tentacle spawns, please clear them out when possible and if you are fighting near 2+ tentacles nearby the terrain then she will have an advantage of doing tons of damage.
Might depend on the champ too. As Riven, I prefer to build straight into my first item as Illaoi typically rushes armour vs me and i only have flat damage. When she has Tabis and my item isn't complete yet, i might choose to avoid trades but once i get that item its over for her. I know its a bit easier for my champ and i have lots of dashes but consider whether you really need to rush an early spike item if it delays an even better power spike.
With nasus you can actually give him what he wants if you are confident. Perma shove wave and roam so hard it doesn't matter how much stacks he gets because you're perma pressuring the map. If it goes late you're fucked anyway, so just fuck the enemy jungle and mid and take 6x grubs and herald
Can you do one about ADC defensive itemization? Riot August keeps talking about it (and how ADCs don't build defensively) but a single shieldbow or jak'sho won't save me from fed zed or Garen running at me at mach 5 speed
As an Illaoi main, all these tips are great to counter her, but remember that a good illaoi wont throw her E like crazy. We throw it when you are about to last hit a minion, or when we use W on a champ, that closes the distance and we can’t miss E. Try to bait her E in this instances. Good video❤
So you need to take short trades to poke her down and then use your burst to kill her when she's low enough. Problem being that she has sustain to heal after trades and she usually wins them anyways by just landing E guaranteed when you're close enough
I find it very easily to counter both illaOI and Aatrox is to not fight them in laning phase. Proxy champions can hard countering them like Singed, Rammus... and then in late game, you can just run across them and let them die. What's important is to not giving them too much resources early
Now there is this champion that has poke, refreshing invisibility, 3-4 dashes, movement speed boost and enpowered basic attack after every ability, slow, ofc energy so she doesn't have snowballing limit duuuh, tons of damage, oh and since you cant basic attack her due to invisibility nor hit her with skillshota due to all those dashes and movement speed boosts, she needs to have one of the highest base hp in the game to survive, would you be so kind and tell me how to counter that?
She is a low mobility, low range champion that has no cc. You can pick ranged champion and if you dodge her E she can't do anything. Also, Singed is really good against her. He doesn't requier sticking close to her to deal damage, you can flip her when she ults to get her away from tentacles. She cant use w while grounded so her tentacles are useless and rylai is your core item which helps your team kite her. He also has built in grevious wounds when he ults.
this is the main reason I play on - hit mobiliity Illaoi ( flash , ghost ) q and e are just bonus to me since r + w spam is usually enough to kill somebody
Nice tips but there was nothing about destroying her passive tentacles, without them she is much much weaker. And she countered in the laning phase by any range champion
AHHHH OH NO FCK i saw a couple comments under the Aatrox one about “now us mains are scared to queue up” wtf same lmao big time illaoi main here why did he have to get to our champ dammit go in alphabetical order or sum 💀
Draven is a lot more obvious than people think. His weakness is that he cannot both push the wave and harass at the same time. All his damage is single target. Force him to choose between his axe and taking free poke constantly. Aim skillshots/cc at his axe markers. If he catches the axe, great free poke, if he drops the axe to save his hp great he does 0 damage. He is both the weakest and strongest adc at the same time, the trick is knowing how to make him fight on your terms since he can never reliability escape.

Yorick is also very good, as well as quinn. Quinn can actually rotate illaois e by 180 with vault.

Yep, real bad idea. Might even be worth to sell it back if you made the mistake 😂
She lands E while you try to cs under tower, this is the real struggle
Get better at dodging skill shot or give cs to not grief game
How to counter darius 🥺
Not going in recklessly and respect his early strength (unless you play WW) and always go for short trade and avoid/bait his e
If you have more than 200 hp advantage while he's low then try to get close to him if he tries to Q and finish him off
Also buying MS and anti slow is a good choice since he don't have mobility and all he got his a hook into a slowing auto
@@UnluckyHelloing ghost flash (he dont have mobility)
dodge q outer range and bait out e by walking in and out of range (if you're bad at this you're gonna get yourself killed so practice)
and many people don't know you don't have to walk away when he uses q you can walk towards him and go inside circle
also, short trades work well against him as there's a tremendous difference between him getting 4 vs 5 stacks
Good video but I would advise revising it and removing bramble vest as a suggestion or at least imply that executioners is better. Illaoi's main all-in and trade damage will come from hitting your spirit and unfortunately bramble vest anti heal does not apply to that
The best tip for low elo players who always make the same mistake. Do not stand in her ult. Move out of it and then continue to fight
