Is Irelia better when played alongside Illaoi?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Irelia that will 100% of the time be her best ally. However, Illaoi is a very typical companion for Irelia. By locking into the same side as Irelia, she improves their win rate by 0.9% to 50.7%. This shows that there is a weak bond between Irelia and Illaoi that allows them to perform better together than without each other.

Illaoi has a lower difficulty than Irelia. That means you don't need to be careful when enlisting Illaoi teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by grouping Irelia and Illaoi together, you will not be granting your other allies a lot of crowd control. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Illaoi ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
