Re-exploring Illaoi

Illaoi decks have seen a sudden surge in popularity in the Glory in Navori season, and that’s mostly due to the rotation that affected the game. Lots of cards were rotated out of standard, lots of which were the main reasons why Illaoi decks were not as reliable as before. Ravenous Flock, Homecoming and Quietus were extremely effective tools at dealing with her and her Tentacles, but with the first two gone and Quietus changed to no longer be able to kill Illaoi as soon as she comes down, there is a fair share of the meta that can be abused by her playstyle as essentially a beefier version of a Demacia deck.
