LoL Milio Counters - how to counter the gentle flame


League of Legends Milio is the newest support champion who has set the Summoner's Rift alight.

His strength with his abilities has made Riot release a hotfix for the overpowered support.

As is the way with new champion releases.

However, he still has such a huge presence on the Rift which can be helped by knowing how to counter his abilities.

So, here are the best counters for Milio in League of Legends and how to play against him.

Malphite

Breath of Life really brings a unique and powerful ability to League of Legends which negates any kind of CC.

One of the few things that cannot be cleansed by this ability is knock-ups. So, taking Malphite into the bot lane can really be useful.

Not only can Milio not cleanse these, but he also may try to anyway and waste his ultimate ability, making him more vulnerable.

As Milio doesn't have any hard engages or any kind of aggressive ability, a scaling champion will do well against him.

One of the biggest counters to Soraka is a fast and quick engage and attacks, and Milio can't provide this.

Hitting Milio with the huge health given by Soraka also makes most of his abilities null and void.

Milio has a very low mobility rate due to the strength of his abilities, so anyone who can hook him in is brilliant against the champion.

Blitzcrank hooks are one of the strongest in-game, but other champions such as Nautilus also work well against him.

Also, Blitzcrank cannot be stopped by Milio's Q ability which makes him an even stronger counter.
