True because you don't want a massive meal that gives you a stomach ache, you want one that fills you up just right. Theres a reason why average tentacles are best, they fit the average person receiving it.
Yeah, Riot should learn from Dota 2. There is a Hero called Bloodseeker, his ultimate is a point and click spell that makes victims bleed to death base on how much distance they travel from their casted location. Imagine Yone, Yasuo, Akali...gets a treatment like that
Really wierd interaction at 23:05 where zwag grabs the xeraths soul, the closer tentacle triggers for a automatic swing but the further away one doesn't. However, when he uses W on the soul, both trigger so maybe there is a bug where the tentacles fail to trigger on the soul at the new range.

Amazing to see her getting some attention with the wider map. Ya probably should have swapped to merc treds about when you bought the iceborn; it would have cut a fair chunk of magic pen damage from Xerath and tenacity is always nice
I was practically dying… instead of eclipse, maw or wits. Wits because illaoi still likes att speed, you get more mr now, AND it gives a ton of tenacity now. I cri
Love these illaoi videos. A pleasant change from long range mages and ADCs. Hopefully an illaoi heartsteel, titanic, eclipse, rift maker, steraks video in a couple of weeks
I’d like to see a illaoi adc teemo sup bot full of shrooms and tentacles so the enemies can just circle around their turret gettin crushed if they take one step too far out. :-)
I play Illaoi mid normally, so I was sad about the map changes I still am making it work but now that I know that they're buffing her I am super happy.
so many options for a yone nerf. what zwag said, could make him do reduced dmg in his E, reduce E duration based on distance traveled or have abilities used in his E reduce how long he can be in it.
Just energy would be fair. And some refund when U hit q3. Like that U reward yone who hit stuff and U have downtime to beat him. Plus U have a tool to adjust him. But this is just my nobodies opinion.
Wait I'm confused. After that first glorious tentacle smackdown, you got one kill before the Garen did his completely skill-based outplay ult. How did Garen get a shutdown though when you only had one recently acquired kill? (9:05)
I suspect one can get a bounty just by outfarming the enemy. I've seen champs with zero kills worth 150 extra gold - if not kills, then what else can contribute to it?
I love that it's 4 enemies mid 3 times, and you get SO LITTLE HELP, that your jungler, Ekko, gets their FIRST kill participation at 14 minutes... when they dash in, steal your kill, then run away.
Minute 18:17 i think you should be looking at the minimap, it took you 6 seconds to notice aphelios was dying to briar and garen lol I know it part of the show, and they prolly get carried but poor guy lol
you can just tell he has never really had to fight illaoi, just this ending with the ult at like 30:50.... resets target on his e so that guy doesnt die. still a great vid to show off these buffs

With heals and shields and high defensive stats and speed, she can get in disrupt the enemy, stay alive, and keep her allies alive with large AOE buffs
5:31 a velkoz main azzapp said something similar. He said that riot should yone energy on his E to make it so he HAS to hit enemy units with q to restore energy otherwise he cant just fkinflg spam that ability
Illaoi tenticals will only hit faster on enemies when you kill the clone with your ult, so Xerath wouldve been hit by ult tenticals if the clone was killed by Illaoi ult or if Xerath was slowed from the E and you ulted on top of him
If they didn't buffed that, she'd be useless with the new map changes. And even though the tentacles reach farther, they'll still be too far away from each other to get the value that she used to have. At least the new AD+HP items have passives that goes her well with her kit. TL;DR: She needs it.
Can't wait to bring Tentacle Time to fools again. Really I think the better fix would have been to just make the tentacles spawn anywhere, not just walls, but if it goes live like this it'll be really strong so I'll take it.
If riot releases Illaoi in this state shes gonna be broken now. she already benefitted a lot off the new items but with tentacles being insane like this now, shes gonna be so oppressive
I'm VERY surprised by Zwag still not have uploaded an AD TF video already. When I've read about his changes I thought Zwag was going to make a video about it right away. 😅 Also...URF is already back to PBE. URF videos time, Zwag!
My Main!!! I'm so glad. She was I'm a rough spot. She loved the new items dle the season, but it was the new map that nerfed her the most. So I love seeing these changes. I also love taking her midlane and bullying assassins
As a jungler who main pick are assasins, I despite ganking this champion just because how broken she is, insane healing, great aoe, huge dmg, tanky. She can easily 1 vs 2, 3 even when she was feeding. The only counter against her are brutes or duelists that are as tanky or deal lots of percentage based/ true damage.
I understand that Illaoi e is "oh it's a crucial skillshot, it should be rewarding to land." I dont think someone who lands a skillshot should just kill me or make me base, from landing it a single time.
fair Yone nerf: remove CD attack speed scaling on his W. remove shield from hitting minions, only from epic monsters. heal and shield only from champs E not granting a dash to go over the walls, and move speed, instead, a short burst of movement speed for 2 sec that goes down the further he is from his E anchor
i think a good Yone nerf would be: if he misses his Q he INSTANTLY dies, gives everyone on the enemy team 1k gold, is banned for a week and his goldfish dies. i dont know. seems fair to me.
I was sitting here watching and thought, "It would kool if her ult was the spirit takes her over and the tentacles spawn on her body. Like Doc Oc from Spiderman." Give a movement speed boost and let her climb over the walls. Grab a champ slam then into the ground. Could be neat.
Come to think of it, R is already a sort of takeover, given how she visually changes. Also mechanically, she gets more Ws, that equals to more tentacle slams - the deity is kind of stronger during the R, too. Mobility options don't match her Juggernaut archetype, she has a low-CD jump on W anyway. And I think that exposing people to tentacles with E is much more "Illaoi-style" than grabbing and busting them, and achieves the same effect - they get bone-broken.
She is pretty much the worst champion at the moment. Due to there being spots where she loses her passive, since there are no tentacles that can reach. Meaning on top you can just fight Illaoi on some spots of the lane, and she can't do anything, and it is hard for her to push from that spot as well, since she has no passive to push the lane. 125 might be a bit of much range, thou. Think 100 is more appropriate, but it might be needed top lane.
Hey Zwag! Eclipse dmg is based on target's max HP and the shield scales off your bonus AD. Also, since Xerath was doing a lot of dmg and you had quite low MR, Spirit visage would be great as the last item, for the extra healing too. Thanks for all the vids!
27:11 LITERALLY STAYED AT 1 HP FOR THE ENTIRE FIGHT AND STILL KILLED EVERYONE THATS INSANE but idk why u didn’t build death dance and spirit visage u heal SO MUCH with those 2 items and the spirit makes u heal atleast 20% more from ur damage (only if spirit visage is still in the game ) haven’t played league in 2 months and and that was only 1-2 games before that haven’t played since late 2020 early 2021
Spirit Visage still exists with all its effects, and yes, it absolutely breaks some champions especially on Arena. I think Zwag skipped Death's Dance because he wanted some HP in the build, which also buffs his % missing Health heals he gets from Tentacles and Sundered Sky. And then the only burst that threatened him was Garen ult, which deals true damage - and that a DD cannot delay. Don't account MF ult, she tickled. But I see your point. Spirit Visage can buff a lot of DDs healing, that is busted.
It's not about the length of the Tentacle, it's about how you use it.
loool
It's both, You have been lied to.
only people with small tentacles say that

💀💀
Awooga
Ok then. Gonna be honest, didn't know you watched Zwag
This man here must want to destroy Zwag with Akali. Idk what makes me think he wouldn’t use Akali with his videos
I think that Yone should take more damage the further away he moves from his main body.
Any CC applied to him shouldn't be cleansed as well. If he gets stunned/slept etc he still should be if he times his return
Yeah, Riot should learn from Dota 2. There is a Hero called Bloodseeker, his ultimate is a point and click spell that makes victims bleed to death base on how much distance they travel from their casted location. Imagine Yone, Yasuo, Akali...gets a treatment like that

How about he does less damage the closer he is instead xD
Vice verca.

Bro cooked
never thought about how broken sundered sky is on illaoi. so far it looks super op
Illaoi reaches late game.... all the enemy players "Yamete kudasai"
How did one of the most difficult to deal with champs in the game get a buff? I don't understand this game sometimes.
when this tentacles update goes live ?
Did i read right? Eclipse dealing 20% MAX HP dmg every 6 secs? wtf riot
I was looking for that comment since saw it too
When Illaoi takes those big tentacle gas station pills...
Is this on pbe or live?
I like this build with unending despair too sometimes for the silver permafighting.
Yeah i can understand why they do it, with new terrain it would be impossible to play without it

Illaoi tenticals will only hit faster on enemies when you kill the clone with your ult, so Xerath wouldve been hit by ult tenticals if the clone was killed by Illaoi ult or if Xerath was slowed from the E and you ulted on top of him
And ulting on top of Xerath wouldve killed him instantly, but at 30m 50s he was only lucky to dodge a tenticle that was spawned inside the bush
Spirit visage would be the play instead of the eclypse no?
i like it when zwag talks about tentacles. more interesting than what item he is building next ^^ :)

Been watching regularly for almost 2 years. I don't like playin ranked so i watch you play instead haha
Top lane tentacles feel like old toplane but in mid lane those have insane lane coverage.
It's so nice to see a wholesome bot lane
I'm honestly a little surprised they haven't gone in the direction of making the tentacle's size (and range) scale with your health
Can't wait to bring Tentacle Time to fools again.
Really I think the better fix would have been to just make the tentacles spawn anywhere, not just walls, but if it goes live like this it'll be really strong so I'll take it.
