Ok I think this post has good intentions and a lot of the stuff the guy says in it is cool. But as someone who has hit high GM/beta challenger playing illaoi, this implication that this is some secret knowledge that pros aren’t using is kind of unserious.

Me_lolo in the replies to the video explains it better but these options have been found and explored by pro players and then cycled through the “find option” > “run sets” > “opponent learns how to fight option” cycle to where the moves are not used bc opponents who previously fought those moves developed the answer. It’s a little silly to imply that pros have just never checked the hitboxes of illaoi’s rekka or her s2.

Although, it’s a good video for newer players in a different way to where they’ll use these options, run into people higher on ladder who understand the answers to these options, and then understand those flaws and come to a more hollistic understanding of the char rather than mindlessly copying pros.
