A champion in 2XKO, Illaoi, the Truth-Bearer of Nagakabouros, wields a massive totem to test the will of her enemies and summon spectral tentacles to fight by her side. She is a high-damage lockdown bruiser who overwhelms opponents with pressure as immense as her faith.
Unique Mechanic – Tentacles: Illaoi’s gameplay centers around summoning and controlling tentacles. Her Special 2
moves create tentacles on the screen. Subsequently, her Special 1
moves command these tentacles to attack, adding extra hits that are crucial for combos and maintaining pressure on the opponent.

Hard-hitting, long reaching attacks: Powerful attacks that can control space and deal significant damage from a distance. High damage and corner carry: Excels at pushing opponents into the corner and executing high-damage combos. Excellent assists: Her assists are versatile and valuable for controlling neutral, applying pressure, and extending combos for her partner. Best-in-class corner pressure: Dominates in the corner with oppressive okizeme (wake-up pressure), effectively setting up offensive situations for her teammate. High skill ceiling: Offers deep and rewarding gameplay for players willing to invest time in optimizing her combo routes and pressure sequences. | A two-step gameplan: Her effectiveness is heavily reliant on first setting up tentacles on the screen, which can be a slow process. Slow, committal neutral: Can struggle against faster characters or strong zoners due to her slower movement and committal attacks. No real mixup options of her own: Lacks inherent tools to open up passive, defensive opponents and often relies on her teammate’s assists for mixups. |
