Who Wins
- Pre-6 you dominate with range advantage and blind negating her W auto-reset, making her trading pattern much weaker.
- Post-6 you lose hard if caught by E in her R zone, so respect her all-in potential and maintain distance.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading is auto-Q-auto when she goes for CS, then immediately back off before she can respond with E-W.
- Never stay in range for extended trades since her sustain from passive and Doran's Shield will eventually out-value your poke.
Wave Control
- Maintain a slow push or freeze near your tower to maximize poke opportunities while staying safe from ganks.
- Avoid hard shoving since Illaoi can match your waveclear with Q and you lose kill pressure when she's safely under tower.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight in her R zone with multiple tentacles as you'll get instantly deleted even with blind up.
- Don't get baited into trading when she has E available, as landing it turns any trade heavily in her favor regardless of your blind.
