Lillia Quick Guide – Abilities, Tips and Tricks for Beginners
Champion At a Glance
Lillia is a bruiser-style mage who specializes in long, drawn-out fights with her movement speed and damage over time through her Dream-Laden Bough. She can weave in abilities such as Blooming Blows and follow it up with a powerful form of crowd control on whoever she touches with her Lilting Lullaby. Lillia players that can continuously find angles to get in and inflict Lilting Lullaby can become a nuisance to play against.
