How to win lane as Lillia against Cassiopeia · 46.74% win rate · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | You only have Q and she only has one rank of poison — nobody wins level 1, so last-hit at range and set the lane up. |
| Level 2 | Cassiopeia | Her Q poison + Twin Fang (W) come online and out-DPS your short hops the moment she has two abilities — don't trade into it. |
| Level 3 | Cassiopeia | Her W grounding now cancels your Q kite while her poison chips you; stay at Swirlseed range and refuse the stand-still fight. |
| Levels 4-5 | Cassiopeia | Even in your best window her sustained poison out-chips your hit-and-run if you stop moving — you grind from the edge but she edges the trades. |
| Level 6 | Cassiopeia | Her R face-stun pins you in poison with no dash; hold your own R as anti-engage rather than diving into her DPS. |
| First item | Cassiopeia | Her first AP item turns the poison into a kill threat that out-paces your Liandry's W chunk in a straight fight. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | You reclaim it on tempo — your move speed and roams come online, but a fully-stacked Cassio still out-DPSes you, so convert before the true late game. |
Level 1 is a non-event — you only have Blooming Blows from range and she only has one rank of poison, so just farm with the Q tip and concede nothing. The trouble starts at 2-3: her Q poison plus Twin Fang out-DPSes my short hops, and her W grounds me so I can't kite out once she steps up. Do NOT try to stack Q sweetspots in her face here — chip with the outer edge of Q and the Swirlseed (E) slow from max range, never inside Twin Fang range.
