    Illaoi Counter Build Advice

    When facing Illaoi's top counters like Mordekaiser, Jax, Ambessa, consider adjusting your situational items to increase survivability and match their damage output. Focus on completing your core damage items before heavily investing in defensive situational items, as Illaoi needs sufficient damage to remain a threat in counter matchups. Adapt your final build slots with items like Thornmail or Sundered Sky based on which counter champions you're facing and their itemization patterns. Monitor enemy builds and adjust accordingly for optimal Illaoi performance.
