How to win lane as Illaoi against Fiora · 49.49% win rate over 887 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Illaoi | You win level 1 — Fiora is squishy with no answer to your E poke. |
| Level 2 | Illaoi | Level 2 stays yours as tentacle smashes out-trade her vital pokes. |
| Level 3 | Illaoi | Level 3 is yours: E rips a Spirit she can't yet reliably Riposte. |
| Levels 4-5 | Illaoi | Levels 4-5 you keep control while her Riposte is on cooldown between trades. |
| Level 6 | Illaoi | Level 6 R slam plus a clean E out-damages her pre-ult vitals. |
| First item | Illaoi | First item still favors you with disciplined E timing around her parry. |
| Two+ items | Fiora | Two-plus items flip to Fiora as R vitals and Riposte let her cancel your kit and duel you down. |
You win the early game. Fiora is fragile and has no way to answer your E poke until Riposte is reliably up, so trade tentacle smashes freely and respect only her Q vital-dashes. Keep her off the wave.
