Illaoi
Computed from 99,785 ranked Solo/Duo games collected through the Riot API · patch 26.21.
| Role | Win Rate | Pick Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Top | 52.0% | 3.8% |
Illaoi is banned in about 11.0% of games at this tier, one figure for the whole champion since bans happen before roles are picked. What ban rate measures.
Illaoi's Top win rate is 2.0 percentage points above an even 50% — Should I Dodge's win-probability model varies by about 4.8 percentage points of standard deviation from lobby to lobby across all ranks, purely from which champions get drawn, so this gap is smaller than that noise, not solid evidence the champion is unusually strong or weak right now.
Illaoi is tracked in exactly one role at this tier scope, Top — so there's no ambiguity below about which lane the rest of this page's per-tier, threat, and counters reporting describes.
Illaoi's Top Build
In Emerald+ games on patch 26.22 (including games from other ranks or the previous patch, as Emerald+ on this patch alone had too few), Illaoi's most common Top setup runs Exhaust and Flash with Grasp of the Undying, maxes E first, and builds Black Cleaver, Sterak's Gage, and Death's Dance — 84.9% win rate over 3 games.
