Illari's Abilities Overview

• Left Click:

  • Hit-scan damage: 75 damage body, 110 headshot (1.5x multiplier).
  • Long-range effectiveness: Full damage up to 30 meters.
  • Charge meter management is key—wait to fully charge shots for best results.

• Right Click:

  • Main healing ability: Heals for 120 HP per second, but has a limited meter.
  • Can’t restore healing during its cooldown; healing is crucial in burst situations.

• Shift (Outburst):

  • Jump ability dealing 10 damage and pushing enemies away, useful for repositioning and escape.
  • Hold space for increased height; directional jumps enhance mobility.

• Healing Pylon:

  • Major healing source, heals within a 15-meter radius for 52 HP per second.
  • Can be positioned strategically; can be destroyed for a quick reset with an 8-second cooldown.
  • Promote proactive placement for sustained healing during team fights.

• Ultimate (Captive Sun):

  • AoE explosion with debuff effects—requires good positioning and timing.
  • Allows for momentary free movement to maximize damage output.

Gameplay Strategy

• Pre-fight Setup:

  • Always place the healing pylon before engaging—position it where enemies can't easily reach it.
  • Utilize your abilities effectively at the start of engagements for maximum impact.

• Positioning & Movement:

  • Keep moving during fights; your survivability heavily relies on proper positioning and jumping around.
  • Use the environment to assist your healing capabilities and to support teammates effectively.

• Role as a DPS-support:

  • Focus more on dealing damage while your pylon handles healing; this shifts Illari's tilting strategy for win inputs.
  • Engage enemy heroes while ensuring your pylon remains active—stay aware of its health and positioning.

Team Composition Recommendations

• Optimal Pairings:

  • Best played with tanks that can maintain distance and synergize in poking scenarios (e.g., Sigma, Reinhardt).
  • Works well in restrictive environments where the pylon can easily guard against incoming damage.

• Compensate for Weaknesses:

  • Be cautious of aggressive dive comps, as they can overextend Illari’s healing capabilities.
  • Pair with supports that provide sustained healing and utility for balanced team dynamics.
