League of Legends: Wild Rift Milio Guide: Gameplay Tips

Coupled with a strong disables-cancelling ult, your team’s ADC will be an unstoppable pair with Milio. According to his gameplay, we can divide it into three sections, early game, mid-game, and late game. However, the Wild Rift’s map is mirrored, so it is necessary to understand the map side before laning.
Early Game
On spawning, purchase Ancient Coin as your Roaming equipment, then head off to the Duo lane with your team’s marksman. In the early game, unlock and use Ultra Mega Fire Kick to assist your allied laner to poke enemies while pushing them back. When unlocked, use Cozy Campfire to boost heal allies and increase their attack range, making it easy for them to kite enemies from a much farther distance.
You must make sure to know when to play aggressively with strong early-game ADCs and against late-game enemy champions. According to that, you must play passively with late-game ADCs and against an all-in enemy bot lane to avoid unnecessary deaths.Â
Mid Game
You can start rotating across lanes to help give your teammates the much-needed team-fight assistance. It is also important to constantly place vision around in the enemy jungle to gain more control of the map. Do make sure your main support abilities are also available and ready to use before each engages too.
In this phase, Milio’s Warm Hugs ability would be increasingly useful as it can be stacked and used whenever needed in crucial teamfights. With Milio, you should you can make nice outplays in crucial teamfights by cancelling disabling crowd effects inflicted upon you and your allies.
Late Game
After a successful mid-game, Milio can easily protect and support the team. You only have to focus on conserving your Ultimate ability for crucial teamfights. The ability combined with the passives of his Core items would grant your team more sustain to scale through. Do also try to make set-up plays for your team by poking with your first skill and follow-up with engages made by your team’s fighter.
In the late game, after buying the necessary items, Milio can spam his abilities more often and effectively. As he would be able to easily heal and buff allies, especially your team’s frontline Fighter. As the main goal of the game is taking down the enemy’s nexus tower, do remember to assist your teammates in securing epic monsters like Baron Nashor and the Elder Dragons. Securing those monsters can hype up the pressure on the enemy team. One can utilize the following combo to assist teammates on the battlefield:
Skill 1 + Skill 3 + Skill 2+ Ult + Skill 1
You could also choose to use your ultimate ability first, depending on whether your teammates are already affected by disables.
