Illaoi, on the other hand, is a very special Champion, as she can be good at multiple things. Here’s how to use her properly.

How to Use Illaoi in Ruined King: A League of Legends Story

Illaoi is the only Champion in Ruined King: A League of Legends who can play different roles effectively: she is an excellent healer, but she can also work decently as a tank and as a damage dealer, all thanks to the Prophet of the Elder God passive ability.

The Prophet of the Elder God skill, in its base form, spawns a Tentacle every 3 turns, and each Tentacle not only deals additional damage to enemies, but also improves the efficacy of the Grace of Nagakabourous and Harsh Lesson Lane Abilities, which heal a single target and deal massive damage to an enemy respectively.

Interestingly enough, Illaoi works decently as a tank as well. The Taunt Instant Ability not only aggroes the enemy but also has a chance of spawning an extra Tentacle, which increases the efficacy of Tentacle Barrier. This, if used in conjunction with the Test of Spirit Lane Ability, allows Illaoi to take damage and then heal herself by attacking the enemy. The efficacy of Illaoi as a tank depends on how you build your character, but if you do not want to use Braum as a tank, this is definitely an option.

Below, you will find all of Illaoi’s Abilities. You can use the information below to plan your build. Each ability can be further improved as the Champion levels up.
