As someone who has played fed Illaoi a lor and also gone against opponent Illaois trying to get fed but failing, I approve of this content.

30 games in master tier in a row without any illaois,i'm starting to think this champion is a myth.

i'm d4, i've seen a few, but they always get stomped by rivens fioras and even the occasional teemo. She's only good against champs that suck at dodging. Basically its the darius rework all over again.

she stomps lower tiers
basically a broken piece of **** mid-plat and below.
high tier and low tier pics are completely different.
riot tends to balance champions based on how they do in diamond and above, not realizing that lieterally 95% of their players will never reach diamond.

meaning that while competitive play maybe very well balanced, for 95% of the people playing league, champions like illao are horrendeously broken pieces of **** .

No shes **** in pretty much any elo above mid gold. I don't think I've lost a game to one out side of aram since her release. Her win rate is around 45% in plat+ play. She's easily countered, outplayed, and shes extremely linear.

i know
she's not a strong character... in high levels
but that's because her abilities are easy to dodge, and she has no engage.
but in low elo, she's broken as **** , because people are terrible at dodging, and give her the engage she needs, for free.

She's not good. Like there are definitely match ups that she wins but honestly most top tier top picks aren't scared of her. GP, Mundo, Trundle, Lulu
User avatar #3 to #2 - rejakted (12/27/2015) [-]
Well, she isn't really cheap at the moment.
And a lot of the seasoned players don't WANT to use her.
User avatar #4 to #3 - mcdolla (12/27/2015) [-]
Me included,why use a champion that you're not going into a matchup in which you already know what will happen after every level you gain when you can just pick the meta champions and play everysingle game without a single difference,man league of legends is so fun when you get to master/challenger levels.

On top of that illaoi is pretty easy to shutdown. More experienced players will be able to dodge her ults+tentacles, as they still have a delay on the smack. If she gets no smacks or the tentacles die/ult wasted, she's pretty worthless afterwards except for some dmg
User avatar #5 to #4 - rejakted (12/27/2015) [-]
Um... could you rephrase that? I don't understand what you're saying.
User avatar #6 to #5 - mcdolla (12/27/2015) [-]
Why pick illaoi when you don't know how she does against most champions when you can pick champions that have experience with and are considered in-meta and have good synergy with the current items (RageBlade for example),and then i talked about how every game in master/challenger tier are all the same and you almost never see something new and interesting.
User avatar #7 to #6 - rejakted (12/27/2015) [-]
Oooooooh.
Well, I mean, I guess you could learn to play her? It's all part of the game. And it's a refreshing new element.
Only reason I bought her was because she was the first ever 'new' champ I could get on first release and because I had a lot of IP lying around but didn't what to spend it on since I don't like using most of the champs.
Thought it'd be pain learning her but, it's an absolute blast using her. And since a lot of the players haven't gone against her, they tend to panic, hehe.

I'm glad you're having fun with her,i'd probably try her out when i play normals with my friends or something,oh and by the way Shalltear is best girl.

How often do you see Gangplank?
User avatar #26 to #10 - shorea (12/28/2015) [-]
thing is, very few people know how to play him. Same goes for Quinn, who's also top tier pick.
User avatar #29 to #26 - sladee (12/28/2015) [-]
The joy of being one of those that know how to play him.
#12 to #10 - ragealicious (12/28/2015) [-]
Old gankplank wasn't seen too often/. Few guys like eyejoker still played him. New GP actually is pretty great after the rework, and more inline to be used, but still wont see pro play much if at all
#19 to #12 - anon (12/28/2015) [-]
Is that why at the IEM Cologne finals he was banned 5/5 times Ever vs QG. Gp is one of the best tops in the game right now and was during worlds as well.
User avatar #13 to #12 - sladee (12/28/2015) [-]
He saw some pro play almost right after his rework, back when barrels had like 60% of total armor ignore.
#14 to #13 - ragealicious (12/28/2015) [-]
That **** got quickly nerfed lol. He's still got plenty enough to play high elo for sure though. It's hilariously funny to wreck teams now. I got trash talked by a kat who said i was a scrub for picking an easy champ. Like wut
#20 to #14 - anon (12/28/2015) [-]
Gangplank was also the MOST contested pick of the ENTIRE tourny. gosugamers.net/lol/pick-stats

Foot meet mouth
#28 to #20 - ragealicious (12/28/2015) [-]
Only during his release in which he was broken as **** , but then they quickly nerfed him. You think tourney players aren't going to hop all over something that's going to make winning easy for them?
#30 to #28 - anon (12/29/2015) [-]
IEM Cologne was 18th-20th of December 2015... That was ******* 8 days ago. And there were no stealth wards so it was the 5.23 patch.
User avatar #15 to #14 - sladee (12/28/2015) [-]
Gangplank isnt the hardest champion but Katarina really has no place to use that as an insult. Bla bla resets bla bla positioning
#16 to #15 - ragealicious (12/28/2015) [-]
that'sthejoke.jpg

Gankplank at least hast to worry about positioning and barreling proerly to get the most out of his kit now, and using the barrels properly to reset your passive(since he doesn't get raise moral, and has no gapclosers/escapes) and penetrate does take a lil work, but never have i laughed that hard
User avatar #17 to #16 - sladee (12/28/2015) [-]
Might as well call Azir a beginner champ.


And watching the enemy team lose 75% of their hp after a good barrel is always hilarious, specially if you managed to land death's daughter as they try to back off and get the kill.

Oh, sure thing then!
And, yup, that I agree with. Just finished the show like 30 minutes ago.
