How to win lane as Lillia against Neeko · 41.67% win rate · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | You both have a weak level 1 — she only has Q poke and you only have one ability, so trade farm and set up the wave rather than committing. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Neeko still has no clone or stun and her E root rarely lands on a moving Lillia, but you can't fully chain a kite yet either — it's a wash. |
| Level 3 | Lillia | With Q move-speed stacks and the Swirlseed slow you can stick to her and burn her with Dream Dust faster than her Q poke trades back. |
| Levels 4-5 | Lillia | Full-rank Blooming Blows plus compounding Dream Dust DoT punishes every step-up she makes to last-hit in Q range. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Her Pop Blossom and your Lilting Lullaby cancel out — she can engage, but you can sleep her on the wind-up if you've stacked your passive. |
| First item | Even / skill | Your Liandry's/Riftmaker percent-HP burn climbs, but her first AP item gives her the E-root-into-R burst to match — neither clearly wins. |
| Two+ items | Neeko | Neeko out-scales: her E root into Q-R combo bursts your squishy frame before your hops close, and she roams for picks while you fall off. |
Neeko's whole early game is her E root (Tangle-Barbs) and her Q poke — neither is reliable on a moving target, and at level 1 you both just farm, so don't throw a Q sweetspot you can't follow up. From level 2-3 the lane tilts your way: once your Blooming Blows move-speed stacks and your Swirlseed slow connect, she can't out-walk your Dream Dust burn and has no clone or stun yet to punish you. Dodge her E like the plague — a single root deletes your kite and lets her free-poke you.
