Introduction

Welcome to my very first Guide on mobafire!
I'm a pretty recent player myself (well, not really new, Ive been playing for around half a year and reached silver 2 near the end of season 5.
When Illaoi came out I instantly decided to buy her and play her as a AD offtank as she dealls so much damage due to her % on her skills.

Runes

Runes here are going for extra damage to deal even more damage to the poor faces you'll be slamming with your tentacles!

Skill Sequence

In lane I usually do this:
E and then Q for harras

W + E + Q for a never able to miss E, and extremely high damage from the Q that comes last.

When having ult:
W + E + R + Q
Your Ult even spawns tentacles for ghosts hit created by your E! use this to your advantage in big teamfights to suddenly spawn 6 tentacles to deal MASSIVE ammounts of damage!

When ganking (rare)
Try using your E from the sideline if the enemy is hugging the wall, and harras him from over the wall so your opponent be like: wdf is happening?!

If not, jump on him with your W, (unless you can hit your E easily) and if you can't get close to use your W, use your W on a minion instead, then quickly catch up to use your E to have either your laner or you attack the spirit, while the other one goes after the real body, usually killing the target or sending him towards hell as a vessel (GOOD LUCK RECALLING!)

Pros / Cons

Pros
High damage at early game and late game.
Incredibly good sustain with her Q and lifesteal masteries.
Good zoning potential.

Cons
Incredible low mobility.
Like almost no crowd control :C
Fast champions will take no damage from any of your skillshots.
Can use quite a bit of mana when spamming abilities during laning phase.

Summary

I know this guide probably didn't help a lot as it's my first and also haven't played Illaoi for a long time (since she came out today) but I'll keep updating the guide when I learn something new about her!
Also, another guide on this ILlaoi page should be out by around tomorow.
