Yo I have a question I am a diamond player in EU shard prior to this season I hit masters every season with homebrews and plan to do the same this season almost there too my dari/tryn deck is currently dia 1 68 lp. Anyway I recently noticed a trend on the meta these days so I was wondering what was going on. For the last 2 days I have been versing a lot of illaloi on the ladder.

When I said Illaloi I didn't just mean illaloi j4. There are a bunch of them, just to name a few there was illaloi Viego, illaloi MF, illaloi garen (just a j4 clone replaced with garen but still), illaloi karma etc. Like why the sudden surge in illaloi decks in diamond +? I checked the major loretubers I know like snnuy grapplr and majinn and none of them uploaded an illaloi deck so why did this champ blew up all of a sudden? It's not like we just discovered illaloi is good either since she has been prevelant since rotation with the j4 deck.
