How to Use Illaoi Counter Data
LoLGuru’s Illaoi TOP counter guide is built from ranked matchup data, not personal opinion. At the moment, Heimerdinger, Varus, and Singed are the toughest lanes for Illaoi, where her win rate falls furthest beneath her overall average. Heimerdinger is the biggest problem: Illaoi has won only 39.2% of 209 recorded games against him. On the flip side, Renekton, Gnar, and Camille are matchups where Illaoi has the edge, and they are worth targeting during champion select.
Every card displays Illaoi’s win rate in that matchup along with the sample size behind it. A figure drawn from tens of thousands of games deserves far more confidence than one drawn from a few hundred. Easy, Even, and Hard labels are assigned from the win rate itself (under 48% is Hard, over 52% is Easy), so they simply help with reading the numbers rather than adding any independent data. Figures come from Emerald-and-above ranked games across every region on patch 16.13.1 and update automatically every 48 hours, so they shift as the meta changes. Matchups tell only part of the story, so pair them with the current Illaoi build for the best items and runes, or visit the Illaoi champion page for ability details and everything else.
