How to win lane as Illaoi against Singed · 45.81% win rate over 633 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Illaoi | You out-stat Singed at level 1 and Q pressures him with zero counterplay from Poison Trail. |
| Level 2 | Illaoi | Level 2 W lets you dash in, reset Harsh Lesson, and win any point-blank trade. |
| Level 3 | Illaoi | At 3 your tentacle field plus W outdamages anything his poison ticks can answer. |
| Levels 4-5 | Illaoi | Levels 4-5 give you enough tentacles that his Fling commitment is a free kill. |
| Level 6 | Illaoi | Level 6 R walls him in tentacles, dwarfing his Mega Adhesive and Insanity Potion. |
| First item | Illaoi | First item keeps your all-in threat above a tank-building Singed's survivability. |
| Two+ items | Singed | Late, Singed's proxy-and-Fling kiting outlasts your slow tentacle field and takes over. |
You out-stat Singed at every early level — Q pokes him and the wave together, and he has no way to interrupt tentacle slams, so any point-blank trade around his Poison Trail favours you hard.
