How to Combo Ilumia

Basic Combo

  • Divine Light 1
  • Banish 2
  • Divine Light 1
  • Cataclysm 3

Basic Ilumia Ilumia combo:

  1. Cast Skill 1 Divine Light Divine Light to poke the enemy and stack passive Goddess Goddess .
  2. Use Skill 2 Banish Banish to deal damage and knock back the target while stacking a 2nd passive Goddess Goddess charge.
  3. Continue with the now-empowered Skill 1 Divine Light Divine Light to launch and stun your opponent.
  4. Then immediately activate Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm to burst the enemy.

Sometimes you need to hold Skill 2 Banish Banish in reserve to defend against an enemy closing in, and Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm to join fights from a distance.

How to Use Ilumia's Skills Effectively

  • Use this long-range skillshot to poke, clear minions, check bushes, and contest objectives.
  • Time it for when targets line up in a row, then use Skill 1 to pierce through and crowd-control multiple enemies.
  • Use the empowered Skill 1 (via passive Goddess Goddess ) for longer range, bigger damage, and to launch every enemy it hits.
  • Crowd-control with this skill first, then Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm will be more effective.
  • Skill 1’s damage has been increased, making poking and clearing minions from range more effective, while also dealing more damage when it hits multiple targets at once.
  • Use Skill 2 to knock back every enemy around you when they close in, protecting yourself and your allies.
  • Take advantage of its slow on the enemy and speed boost for yourself to chase or escape.
  • Use this skill to knock the enemy back, then Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm will land more easily.
  • Watch the whole map to use Skill 3 to join fights and contest objectives from a distance.
  • Use this skill to finish off an enemy fleeing a fight or to reveal stealthed enemy heroes.
  • Time it for when the enemy is crowd-controlled or standing still, since there’s a short delay after casting before it deals damage.

How to Play Ilumia in the Early Game

In the early game, since Ilumia Ilumia ‘s stats are strong in fights but not effective for solo ganking, focus on farming minions and controlling your lane to quickly reach level 4.

Once you have Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm , you can farm while joining fights from a distance, which is better than rotating early. Always watch the minimap to spot fights and support your allies in time with your ultimate.

How to Play Ilumia in the Mid Game

By the mid game, with a few items, Ilumia Ilumia becomes tankier, so you can rotate to directly join small skirmishes to help your allies.

Hold a backward position and unload skills to optimize this hero’s strengths; watch for when the empowered Skill 1 Divine Light Divine Light can launch and stun multiple enemies — that’s the key moment to burst them down.

Always watch the minimap so you can use Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm to kill from range and contest Dragon and Caesar if the enemy team attacks them.

How to Play Ilumia in the Late Game

By the late game, always move with your team since Ilumia Ilumia has a huge impact on full team fights. Avoid wandering alone since this hero has poor mobility, making him an easy hunting target for the enemy team.

Stay near your marksman, ready to use Skill 2 Banish Banish to knock back the enemy and shield that hero and yourself.

Spam your skills and watch the enemy’s core damage dealer’s health — if there’s an opportunity, use Skill 3 Cataclysm Cataclysm to finish them off from range to secure the fight and the whole match.
