Illaoi vs Lux Matchup Summary

The Illaoi vs Lux matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 7 recent matches analyzed, Illaoi wins with a 57.1% win rate compared to Lux's 42.9%, giving Illaoi a 14.3 percentage point advantage. Illaoi dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Lux players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Lux leads by 1.9s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes.

Damage
523Illaoi
867Lux

Utility
0.1Illaoi
2.0Lux
Lux brings significantly more crowd control than Illaoi, with 1.9 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Lux far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
1,265Illaoi
488Lux
Illaoi vastly out-sustains Lux, healing and mitigating 777 more damage per minute.
