Abilities (What to Watch For)
| Ability | What You'll See | What It Means For You |
|---|---|---|
| Purple sparkles and a glowing leaf above your head. | You are taking Max Health damage over time from . This mark allows her to cast on you from any distance. | |
| A circular swing of her staff. | The outer edge deals true damage and gives her stacking movement speed. If you are melee, stay glued to her to avoid the true damage sweet-spot. | |
| A small hop followed by a heavy ground slam. | Massive damage in the center of the circle. This is her main burst tool. Do not stand still if she hits you with the slow. | |
| A rolling seed that travels until it hits something. | A long-range slow that applies . If it misses everything, it keeps rolling forever until it hits a wall. Watch for it coming from the fog of war. | |
| A chime sound followed by a 'Drowsy' icon. | After a short delay, you fall asleep and cannot move or act. The next hit you take deals bonus damage. Use QSS or Cleanse once the sleep starts. |
Respect
- !Max movement speed stacks→With 4 stacks of , she is nearly impossible to hit with skillshots. Don't chase her into the jungle unless you have hard point-and-click CC.
- !Center-hit →The center deals 300% damage. If you are 'Drowsy' from , she will time this to hit you exactly when you wake up for a near one-shot.
- !Outer-edge →This part of the ability deals True Damage. High armor and magic resist won't mitigate this damage, making her a nightmare for tanks.
- !Long-range snipes→She can roll this from half a map away. If it tags you, she can instantly press to stop your recall or start a fight from safety.
Punish
- +0 stacks of →Lillia is slow and vulnerable at the start of a fight. Engage on her before she can hit minions or champions to ramp up her speed.
- +jump animation→She is locked in a fixed movement during the animation. This is the easiest time to land your CC or high-damage skillshots.
- +is on cooldown (14s early)→She has no way to apply from a distance. Force a trade while she is unable to poke or setup from range.
- +Pre-level 6→Lillia has no hard CC and is quite squishy. Invade her jungle with strong early duelists to delay her power spikes.
Laning Tips
- •Dodge sideways to avoid the center of ; the center hitbox is much smaller than the total visual circle.
- •Hide behind minions to block ; it stops and explodes on the first enemy hit.
- •If you are melee, hug her during to take magic damage instead of the outer-edge true damage.
- •Buy Mercury's Treads to reduce the 'Drowsy' duration from , though the sleep duration itself is fixed.
- •Use Zhonya's Hourglass right as the 'Drowsy' bar is about to finish to completely negate the sleep from .
- •Invade her second buff; she usually gets quite low on health during her first clear before she gets levels.
Teamfight Warning
- ⚠Do not clump up; a single can apply to your whole team, leading to a 5-man sleep.
- ⚠Focus her immediately if she tries to Flash in; she needs to be in melee range to start her + combo.
- ⚠Ward over jungle walls; she loves to throw from out of vision to pick off carries.
- ⚠Banshee's Veil or Edge of Night are great because they block the or application entirely.
- ⚠Keep track of her stacks; if she has been hitting jungle camps nearby, she will enter the fight with max movement speed.
