Best ADC champions to play with Milio in LoL

Milio is now on the live servers, so let’s check out which are the best ADC champions to play alongside him in the current LoL meta.

The 5 best ADC to play with Milio in LoL

Milio is now on the live servers as he’s set to set foot on Summoners’ Rift with Patch 13.6. Right off the bat, the champion turned out to be quite powerful, which forced the developers to hotfix him in one day.

Despite the small nerfs, Milio is still performing well, with strong win rates. His simplicity makes it a perfect champion to pick up for beginners, and the kit allows him to grant more power to his allies without great mechanical requirements.

Based on his current state, we have compiled a list of the best ADC champions that are going to work with Milio. While it’s not definitive, as players are still discovering the limits of the champion, most of them should be pretty much settled.

Ashe – the no. 1 ADC for Milio

After doing some testing, the current best ADC to play with Milio is Ashe. For a champion that wants to kite like her, Milio further empowers all her strengths, making her almost untouchable during the fights.

Ashe, compared to other marksmen in the meta, has a stronger early game thanks to her poke from her W. This gives Milio more breathing room to scale since he doesn’t excel on early game trading.

The shining moment for this duo starts during the mid-game and teamfights. Thanks to the increased attack range from Milio’s Cozy Campfire (W), Ashe can use her DPS from a safe distance. In case she gets engaged, Milio can cleanse any incoming crowd control with the ultimate.

Paired with Ashe’s slows on auto attacks, she can become an oppressive threat to the enemy team, kiting them to death. There’s only one way to beat this bot lane and that is by punishing them early on. Try to delay their scaling as much as possible and get a good snowball from it.

Caitlyn – the Ashe alternative

There is a reason why Riot Games showed Cailtyn and Milio together in the abilities rundown video. The two are probably going to be the no. 1 bot lane pairing with Milio.

Caitlyn is known for being a lane bully thanks to her high attack range. If Milio is played alongside her, there is a chance the enemy players wonì’t get to play, given the insane range she will get under Milio’s W. She can harass enemies for free, without even giving them a way to fight back. Paired with Milio’s passive, Caitlyn will deal even more damage.

On top of that, she will get shields and movement speed bonuses from Milio’s E, partially fixing her lack of mobility. And if Caitlyn gets engaged or locked down by crowd controls, Milio can cleanse it with his ultimate, allowing her to instantly get away from danger.

That being said, this bot lane duo, just like almost all the best Caitlyn bot lanes, is going to be vulnerable to ganks without proper vision. While Milio’s numbers are still being tested on the PBE, there shouldn’t be doubts about the power of this pairing.

Lucian – Dash ‘n’ fire

Even though Lucian is a highly mechanical champion that requires players to play aggressively, Milio does a wonderful job at empowering his early game power. By providing constant shields, Lucian is able to consistently proc his passive for extra damage, getting the upper hand in most of the trades during the laning phase.

On top of that, Milio heavily ramps up Lucian’s damage with the Cozy Campfire (W), allowing him to attack targets from a distance he usually won’t be able to do. Paired with his own mobility, Lucian can fire all his shots while repositioning and kiting backward.

That being said, this bot lane duo requires great coordination and it’s usually a high-risk, high-reward duo. If you’re unable to get a lead by playing these two champions together, you will struggle with the team’s damage output in the late-game teamfights since Lucian has a notable drop compared to other hypercarries.

Jinx – Blowing up teams from afar

When paired with Milio, Jinx have a similar approach to Twitch’s, as the two share similar traits in terms of late-game damage output and DPS. The main difference, however, is that Jinx got buffed recently, and her early game is slightly stronger thanks to her AoE damage from her rockets which allows her to play with the wave management better.

While she won’t have Twitch’s insane attack range later on, she will still be able to dish out consistent damage, and Milio’s ultimate shields should be good enough to protect her from any potential threat. As long as she can long enough to get the reset, Jinx will then take over the fights.

Kai’Sa – the meta adherent pick

While she is usually played with engage supports, Kai’Sa has been finding strong success with Milio as well in this meta. This is because the support provides strong peeling for the Void marksman early on, making sure she can scale relatively safely to her power spike.

And once you get to the late game, Milio will be able to give Kai’Sa even more healing and shielding, and even if she gets caught, Milio can save her with his own ultimate. If that wasn’t enough, Kai’Sa also has her own dash (from ultimate) to reposition herself a second time.

It’s not one of the strongest laning duo so don’t play too aggressively or you’ll likely get punished. It’s recommended to wait for ganks or the enemies’ mistake to capitalize on a few kills.
