Tips Against Milio as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Demonsedge90 says “His ultimate can remove your bubble stun, but he lacks any offensive threat (outside of his Q) or crowd control to stop you from walking up and forcing short trades.”
chickenandbeans says “Despite being an enchanter, Milio is much harder than most.
Why?
- Ultimate removes Sleep from allies.
- Shields reduce your burst window.
- Movement speed buffs make Bubble harder to land.
- Excellent at protecting hypercarries.
”
iXShadow says “You will rarely ever use Devour on enemies, so his ultimate won't be very helpful in lane. He's immobile and his abilities are telegraphed. Wait until he throws his ball then all-in him.”
Pyke on a Spike says “FIRST ITEM [[Serpent's Fang]]
Release your hook as quickly as possible before he can throw the bowling ball at you, and hook from bushes/fog of war”
Minima141 says “Milio is a difficult matchup because he excels at protecting his ADC and denying engages. His Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q) can knock enemies back and disrupt your engage, while Warm Hugs (E) provides shields and movement speed that help his ADC escape trades. Many Rakan players lose this lane by forcing engages while Milio still has his defensive tools available.
The lane becomes easier once Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q) is used. Without his knockback available, Milio has fewer tools to immediately stop your engage or peel for his ADC. This creates a short window where Rakan can pressure trades or look for favorable engages.
Because Milio’s strength comes from disengaging fights and extending trades with shields and range advantages, patience and timing are very important in this matchup. Avoid predictable engages and look for opportunities when his key ability is unavailable.
• Engage after Milio uses Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q).”
Joxuu says “Scales about the same as Lulu and plays through their ADC. You have more lane pressure and poke with E + Q but play around her E shields being on cooldown and don't go for trades when her W is active as the burn damage adds up with the extra range”
kallil30 says “Ele não vai deixar você chegar perto, e pode curar os aliados, além de dar escudo, e o R dele tira todos os controles de grupo. Ele não vai te matar, mas vai anular suas habilidades.”
FrostyTheG says “Milio is a skill matchup. His shielding and movement speed aura let his ADC survive poke, while his flame attacks can contest your harassment. While not an instant counter, he reduces Vel’Koz’s effectiveness in extended trades and skirmishes.”
Zakke says “kind of annoying I guess? but you can just do whatever you want and there isn't really any threat. his ult doesn't work on your cc as well ”
Nobreav says “
Countering Milio's Ultimate
Milio's ultimate removes all crowd control effects except for knock-ups. Therefore, it's crucial to initiate with Alistar's Q (Pulverize) knock-up. Force Milio to use his ultimate with a W-Q combo, or guide your allied damage dealers to attack from outside Milio's ultimate range.
Countering Milio's Q Skill
Milio's Q (Ultra Mega Fire Kick) can interrupt Alistar's W (Headbutt) dash. It's best to engage after confirming Milio has used his Q, or to use Flash to dodge Milio's Q while engaging.”
saucyyyy says “Milio isn't too strong early, look for flips on either him or his ADC. His ult completely denies urgot ult though so after 6 the lane is pretty painful and you'll likely never get an R off around him. This forces you to ult him if you want an execute as he cannot cast his R while suppressed. His W gives his allies extra range which can make it hard for Urgot to step into range. You can buffer his Q quite easily but you won't get a flip off it.”
Alchemyr says “Both Janna and Milio can disengage your E and your jungler's ganks, but they're squishy and all magic damage. Your W magic shield and Celestial Opposition make you insanely hard to kill for their poke.
Take Tank, walk forward with W charging to soak tornadoes/knockbacks, and force them to spend ult defensively.”
Killeia says “Milio excels at burst healing and temporary buffs, which is annoying. The good thing is, though, is that Soraka actually has a more consistent healing ability and can easily disrupt his abilities with her E.
I still personally find him annoying to go against, though. ”
Nhympes says “Counter his poke with constant healing.
He excels in teamfights due to his range, sustain, and CC removal.
His R completely negates the usefulness of polymorph on key targets.
His W surpasses the offensive/defensive buffs provided by Lulu.
And its op in this meta, BAN.
--
Anula su poke con curas constantes.
Es mejor en teamfights por rango, sustain y limpieza de CC.
Su R niega totalmente la utilidad de polimorfismo en objetivos clave.
Su W supera los buffos ofensivos/defensivos que Lulu provee.
Y está muy fuerte actualmente, BAN.
”
Jageiko says “Milio might be one of the easiest counter there is to Poppy supp, while also remaining perfectly meta.
His insane sustain and peel is already bad for you, but on top of that he can also negate your stunlock with his R, and, worse of all, he can cancel your very linear E with his very linear Q, as soon as he pressed his key he's safe.
Be super carefull and patient, and try to pressure the map if they have no openings. It's not gonna be easy.”
Quoko says “His [[Warm Hugs]] (E) shield and bonus range make it hard to poke down his ADC, and his ult completely cancels your root.
Look to bait out his cooldowns and avoid committing while his [[Breath of Life]] (R) is up.”
stroderna says “Like Janna, Milio possesses great disengage and peel. In my experience, it usually takes a gank from your jungle to limit the impact of him and his ADC.
NOTE: The majority of Enchanter matchups against Seraphine ends with them being able to provide utility better than you in lane. For the sake of clarity, most will be placed in the Even threat level.”
io1375 says “A lot of people struggle with this matchup due to him knocking you back, however it's never been a big problem for me. Just play around that bounce back and you should be fine”
ShriekingMammoth says “His Q interrupts your E and has shields/heals to reduce your damage. His R also has great influence for teamfights and cleanses your taunts.”
Zileanaire says “Milio is kind of just like a mosquito. Annoying but not a big threat. If he's paired with a long range ADC he just makes them more annoying. ”
ZedAway says “his kit is not really that annoying, his ult does not cancel out urs, the only downside is his Q which is basically most of his annoyingness comes from, bait it then do whatever u like.”
Aerenax says “Milio can be an annoying little kid when playing against him in botlane. He can cancel you pulling towards him with your Q by using his Q - Ultra mega fire kick. In teamfights he has the ability to cleanse everyone with Breath of life. So if you CC someone he is out in a matter of seconds. He can't cleanse the knockup of your ult, so keep that in mind!”
zSharpFire says “The utility he has and the damage he can make his adc pump with his passive is uncontainable early and worse late. When your adc is not strong enough early I suggest you ban him, as a lane such as Millio-Kog'maw will be completly unplayable.”
Arctic Arrow says “Milio can be a challenge, especially when paired with a strong ADC like Caitlyn, due to his ability to provide significant zoning and utility. To handle him effectively, keep up the pressure by engaging frequently. Use your W diagonally to dodge his Q (Ultra Mega Fire Kick) if he attempts to knock you away, and leverage your Q's range to find advantageous angles.
Serpent's Fang is highly recommended to counter his shield and mitigate his defensive capabilities. By managing your positioning and cooldowns, you can balance the lane and handle Milio’s disruptive abilities.”
BigodeOfLegends says “Milio has limited synergy against Senna, as his focus on heals and buffs can be easily overcome by Senna's poke. He lacks effective engagement or crowd control tools to directly threaten Senna, making him more useful in survival-focused games.”
TnDD says “Milio, Bard'a karşı çok kötü bir seçim onla küçük takaslar gerçekleştirebilir, ultini kolaylıkla rakip ADC'ye atıp takım arkadaşlarınla beraber kesebilirsin.
Milio'nun kolay matchup olmasının en önemli sebebi de ultisini işe yaramaz yapıyorsun. Senin ultini arındıramaz. ”
IMANOOBOKOWO says “Milio can be kind of a pain in combination with cait or something similar so you will have to engage them to keep the pressure up, However you must use your W diagonally to dodge his Q if he tries to kick you away(since your Q has quite the range you can look for those kind of angles) Also serpents fangs is HIGHLY recommended ”
Foxirion says “Milio’s support abilities can pose an even threat to Rakan. The outcome of this matchup can vary greatly depending on the players’ skill and game conditions.”
glimppi says “He can't really kill you or your ADC, but he will be very difficult to deal with later in game and in team fights. Try to get your ADC ahead early.”
schizoslvt says “if he is paired with lucian or twitch its unplayable lane depending on how reliable you are with hitting hooks.if he is with something like MF its easy lane
Be careful of Q cancel with his Q”
Velkyann says “Millio does nothing against you in pratically any level but he can buff certain adcs to a problematic level. There isnt much to do against him, your level 1 is horrible because of his Q but level 3 above you can play.”
MorePierogiVanya says “Not as bad as Soraka due to less sustain and mediocre shields, but his R can definitely hard counter you. Only saving grace is that he can't R if you stun him!”
Razing42 says “Milio is an annoying matchup as he can use his Q to deny your travel with hook and he will scale very well into the late game. If he ever uses his Q for poke look for a fight.”
Kcmichalson says “[SUP] You'll be playing around Milio's Q, it's his peel and his main source of damage.
Punish his long cooldowns and try to bait his ult once he gets it. A good Milio can shut down your engage and leave you in a terrible situation.”
Drygur says “Kicks the ball at you when you E and it's GG and it's really cringe. Pretty unplayable without baiting the Q out which will not happen if the Milio is good, or you must have flash/ADC looking to create space/pilot the stun for you.”
Saethwyr says “Milio isnt the worlds worst matchup, but his ability to peel you off and access to decent poke makes it still a rough lane for you overall.”
Your_ Local_Eldritch_Horr says “He's mostly ya know, dodge his fireballs. He does a lot of shield and healing, typical enchanter. Not too bad. ”

quecck says “As long as you can dodge Q most if not all of the time you should be fine. I'm having traumatic flashbacks of him Q'ing me in the face as I write this :'[ ”
Xintero says “His ult is very annoying. He can cleanse and disable immobilizing effects with it, and also heal. His W is also a problem if there's a Caitlyn, since you will have trouble poking. To be honest, I don't see Miliot in low elo.”
JordyGSmiteq says “Milio has very low damage, and an average attack range. His only form of poke is E + AA, or Qing a minion.
Tips: If he wastes Q on a minion, WQ, any E (I recommend EE or EW), into any Q ability. If he's walking up to E + AA, make sure you're using bushes or taking advantage of him not using cover.”
quecck says “As long as you can dodge Q most if not all of the time you should be fine.
I'm having traumatic flashbacks of him Q'ing me in the face as I write this :'[”
akamanto says “If you have a bot lane that can with in 2vs2 you play aggresive with glacial and you flash stun him when even you see the chance .
But because milio is very good and can protect his adc you must be sure you win .
Else you can just roam cause milio players just wants to play with there adcs a lot
”
HotEspressoooo says “amazing heals, shields, and anti-engage. bait his Q with ur W and all in kill. NEVER DIVE THIS CANCER CHAMP. his ult negates urs.”
Razing42 says “You win early against just about any lane with Milio. His level 1 is quite strong because of his two charges of his shield, but you can still punish him early game. He can knock you away with his Q while you're traveling with Q.”
Aerenax says “Milio is an enchanter that can poke you down with his extra attack range from W quite easily. Play around this cooldown and lane will be fine. ”
mazewalk says “He can disengage whatever you do and gives lots of tenacity to his team. But thats it. His shields are really weak unless he uses both charges on one person and same works for his heal. Still, buy Thornmail confidently since he is only useful with autoattack champions. ”
Shadowcrushers says “
Milio is a formidable opponent and a major match against Soraka due to several key factors. While Soraka is known for her healing abilities and supportive playstyle, Milio possesses unique qualities and skills that can turn the tide of the battle.
Burst Damage: Milio is an exceptional burst damage dealer, capable of quickly and efficiently eliminating targets. His high damage output can overwhelm Soraka's healing capabilities, making it difficult for her to sustain her team through Milio's burst. Even though Soraka's Astral Infusion provides significant healing, Milio's burst potential can negate her efforts and take down priority targets before she has a chance to react.
Mobility and Crowd Control: Milio excels in mobility and crowd control, allowing him to constantly reposition himself and disrupt Soraka's positioning. His dashes, blinks, or gap-closing abilities can easily bypass Soraka's zoning tools and reach her vulnerable backline. Additionally, Milio's crowd control abilities, such as stuns or silences, can prevent Soraka from utilizing her healing and supportive abilities effectively, rendering her vulnerable to focused attacks.
Anti-Healing: Milio's kit may include abilities or items that provide anti-healing effects. These effects can significantly reduce Soraka's healing output, diminishing her impact in team fights. By reducing the effectiveness of Soraka's healing, Milio can tilt the balance of power in his favor, making it harder for Soraka to keep her allies alive and turning the tide of the battle.
Burst Survivability: Milio's kit may include defensive tools that allow him to survive burst damage or negate Soraka's attempts to disable or weaken him. By having ways to withstand Soraka's crowd control or outplay her attempts to shut him down, Milio can maintain his offensive pressure and continue to threaten the enemy team.
Target Selection: Milio's ability to prioritize and eliminate key targets in team fights can disrupt Soraka's healing strategy. By swiftly dispatching high-priority targets, such as damage dealers or squishy carries, Milio can prevent Soraka from healing them effectively. This not only weakens the enemy team but also applies pressure on Soraka to decide whether to heal her allies or save herself, potentially causing her to make crucial mistakes.
Strategic Positioning: Milio's playstyle and positioning can be strategically adjusted to exploit Soraka's vulnerabilities. By recognizing the range limitations of Soraka's healing abilities, Milio can position himself in a way that allows him to engage on her or her allies while staying out of her reach. This forces Soraka to use her ultimate ability, Wish, to provide healing from a distance, reducing its availability for crucial moments later in the game.
In conclusion, Milio presents a significant threat to Soraka due to his burst damage, mobility, crowd control, anti-healing capabilities, burst survivability, target selection, and strategic positioning. By leveraging these advantages, Milio can disrupt Soraka's healing and supportive abilities, diminish her impact on team fights, and potentially turn the battle in his team's favor. However, it is important to note that individual player skill, team composition, and overall game strategy will always play a crucial role in determining the outcome of any matchup.”
Fear The Jester says “Dont place Ws near his Q range as he will knock them back from where you want them, hard to engage on. stall and scale, u win later.”
Jordan Bot says “Not only is he not exactly balanced right now, he has way too many ways of making your engage fail. The way to win this matchup is to make sure your ulti hits him as well, but the difficulty this adds to your game is not worth it, recommend banning or asking for the ban”
AscorbicAcids says “Lane is awful, and late game is awful.
But if they aren't very attentive you can E him before he casts it, and if he tries to cast while you dash you will be behind where the projectile spawns.”
Apos says “It's a really slippery champion. His Q is easy to dodge from range but as soon as you try to get closer it's just too good. He also gives tenacity to everyone so it's hard to win team fights. You can skill check him early by seeing how good he is at cancelling your Q.”
qaffqa says “Even matchup. The thing tha bothers the most in his kit is not the Q knockback but the afterwards slow which is huge. If he is smart he will save his ulti to counter your R-W engage so have this in mind.”
support_diff says “Milio can't do much to you by herself but she can give her adc shield, heal and bonus auto attack range which is generally bad for you”
jmp_01_ says “Is ranged, gives a lot of survivability for his whole team and can disengage you by pressing Q. Really hard match-up if he's good. He can basically turn around or win a single fight by pressing R. Play smart and cheese if necessary.
Take Glacial Augment.”
Lunar Empress says “Enchanter on enchantress crime. Skill matchup. He can't cleanse airborne so your tornado and ult still reign supreme. Slightly in your favor. Go Glacial here.”
mazewalk says “He easily abuses Rakan weaknesses by making poke hurt more, disengaging your ultimate with his own. But the worst is the fact, that this LIONEL MESSI can disengage your W by randomly kicking his ball. Make sure to ult him first, so he doesn't use his R asap.
Q's cd is always 12.
R cd = 160/145/130.”
Afnyc says “my standard ban. his kit counters glasc's, with the shields and heals and ms buffs and cleanse. his poke also outranges. Very hard to play against, if you win you're the better player by a longshot”
gizemdeniz says “Milio is an ideal support healer. He will cause a lot of trouble with his shield and heal in short fights. Extending the trades in the early stages can help us do some good damage, but it will be a difficult match.”
FunnyBunnyH says “Moving up him to "Even" tier, because the meta ADCs favours him a lot rn, he is in a reasonably strong state, and people generally refuse to buy Serpent Fang vs him.”
Thorge says “Milio é um campeão que da muito escudo e cura com uma velocidade alta, atrapalha seu poke e impede que você inicie uma luta ou de uma resposta.”
support_diff says “Milio can give her adc range, which is bad for you as you don't want to get poked by her adc's auto attacks. She has also a decent disengage as she can push you away if you approach her with a W on your mind. Target her instead of her adc as she can cleanse and shield her adc but can't defend herself”
support_diff says “Milio has a good shield, but that is everything she has against you. If she ults someone you have stunned, that's just wasted ultimate as the damage is dealt and you can still hit your abilities”
Demonsedge90 says “This matchup hinges on outplaying his ultra mega kick and breath of life abilities since getting stunned by his q will make it hard for you to engage, and when he ults, he will remove all your crowd control spells applied and make it hard for you to lock down a target. So always watch his movements and react accordingly; this will help you succeed in this matchup.”
Aerenax says “Milio can be an annoying little kid when playing against him in botlane. Your W animation is slow and he can cancel it by using his Q. In teamfights he has the ability to cleanse everyone, so if you find a charm on 4 people that can easily be undone by him. He can't cleanse knockups, so keep that in mind!”
Aerenax says “Even though Milio is a very short ranged enchanter, he will still outrange you and be hard to catch out because of his W with extra attack range or his E that gives movement speed. An experienced Milio will be able to disrupt your engage using his Q and when you finally manage to lock someone down, his R has a cleansing effect which saves enemies that you hit with your E. A pretty annoying matchup!”
beefyylol says “Milio will always out trade you in lane with his E shield and passive damage, and scales well with his attack range and speed buffs. It will also be hard to get picks as he can cleanse your stun on his allies (his ult will not cleanse Tempered Fate's stasis)”
Yoshiking123 says “His kit makes it really hard for you to stick onto targets and makes it easy for his team to space you. Your only chance of hard winning is to fight Level 1 and Level 2 early.”
Pykings says “Pyke vs. Milio: Simplified Tips
Early Game (Levels 1-6):
Avoid Poke: Milio has strong poke with his [Q]. Stay behind minions and avoid unnecessary damage.
Engage Carefully: Milio can disengage with his [W] and [E]. Wait for him to waste abilities before going in.
Roam: If lane is tough, roam to mid or help your jungler. Milio is weaker when alone.
Mid Game (Levels 7-12):
Pick Off Squishies: Focus on catching out squishy targets with your [Q] and [R]. Milio’s poke can’t save them from your execute.
Vision Control: Use sweeper to clear his wards and deny vision for his team.
Late Game (Levels 13+):
Flank and Execute: Look for flanks to catch carries with your [R]. Milio’s poke can’t stop your burst if you catch him off guard.
Focus on Carries: Ignore Milio in teamfights; he’s not a threat. Focus on eliminating his carries.
General Tips:
Bait His Abilities: Milio’s [W] and [E] are key to his poke and disengage. Bait them out before committing to a fight.
Vision Control: Keep key areas warded to track Milio’s movements and set up picks.
Conclusion:
Avoid Milio’s poke, bait his disengage abilities, and focus on picking off his carries. Use your mobility and vision control to outmaneuver him.”
