Lillia vs Hecarim

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Lillia's superior clear speed and mobility to out-tempo Hecarim and secure early objectives.
Focus on full clears and avoid early river fights before movement speed stacks activate to prevent getting caught by Hecarim's engage.
Prioritize scaling through AP item spikes and leverage sleep CC to control grouped objective fights.

Jungle Plan

Path for quick full clears cycling camps to maintain tempo and reach AP spikes before fighting.
Fight for river control and Scuttle when allied lanes can move first to leverage sleep CC in objective setups.
Track Hecarim's pathing to counter-gank his early ganks and punish overextended lanes for scaling denial.

Danger windows

Beware early river fights before (E) sleep is active, as Hecarim's engage and fear can punish low-health clears.
Respect forced smite fights where Hecarim's speed and fear can isolate and burst Lillia.
Avoid isolated skirmishes when lanes lack priority, as Hecarim's mobility enables dangerous counter-ganks.

Early game

Start with a full clear to maximize tempo and delay early skirmishes until (E) sleep is available.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid Hecarim's high mobility counter-ganks.
Avoid early invades when low-health to prevent being punished by Hecarim's speed and fear engage.

Power spikes

Lillia spikes with AP item completions and (E) sleep for strong objective control and teamfight initiation; use these to force fights.
Respect Hecarim's mid-game spike when he gains items and ultimate fear engage, as he can dive carries effectively.
Use Lillia's very high clear speed to reach power spikes faster and pressure Hecarim before he can snowball.

Win conditions

Convert faster clears and movement speed into early objective control by securing dragons and Rift Herald with sleep setup.
Use (E) and (R) sleep CC to enable teamfights around objectives, denying Hecarim's engage angles.
Deny Hecarim free farm by tracking his pathing and punishing overextended lanes to delay his mid-game spike and scale safely into late game.
