Strengths
- His range extension and slow let your ADC trade and kite from a step beyond where the enemy duo can reach.
- Stacked healing and shielding make a defensive 2v2 miserable to push, since the lane refuses to lose health.
- Breath of Life (Ult) can erase nearby non-airborne control and add tenacity, provided Milio himself is still able to cast it.
Weaknesses
- Immobile, squishy, and escape-free, so any hook or flank that reaches him skips the cleanse and just kills him.
- His kick provides a one-second knockback and stun on the first target, but it is a single projectile and much less reliable as engage than as peel.
- Roam and pick pressure punish him, because a slow babysitter cannot answer plays across the map.
Milio Support Wild Rift best build, items, runes, summoner spells, and skill order
ITEM BUILD
Best Wild Rift build for Milio Support, including items, runes, summoner spells, and skill order.
STARTING ITEM
Support income for an enchanter who spends the lane buffing rather than farming.
BOOTS
Ability haste is what changes his impact, since his value is how often his shield and range buff are up.
CORE BUILD
Quest income, which funds the enchanter items his kit is designed around.
His shield has two charges, so the attack speed and on-hit damage stay running on his carry almost permanently.
Warm Hugs (3rd) and Cozy Campfire (2nd) can spread 30% of healing or 35% of shielding to another nearby ally. If nobody else qualifies, the original target receives the extra protection.
A second cleanse next to his ultimate, so he can answer two lockdown attempts in one fight instead of one.
Shielding an ally gives him ability haste and ability power, which on him means more shields.
SITUATIONAL ITEMS
Replace Harmonic Echo when Milio can safely hit champions with Ultra Mega Fire Kick (1st) or basic attacks between protecting allies. That damage stores extra healing for Warm Hugs (3rd) or Cozy Campfire (2nd) to release. Keep Harmonic when his position only allows shielding and peeling.
A team-wide shield for the fights where area damage rather than one target is killing his team.
RUNES
KEYSTONE
Aery follows his shield as well as his Q (1st), so it pays out on the button he presses most.
PRIMARY
Ultra Mega Fire Kick (1st) can trigger Font of Life while peeling from range, healing Milio and the lowest-health nearby ally before his shields and healing zone continue the trade.
He has no escape and stands in range to heal, so the engage aimed at him is what this cuts down.
This strengthens Cozy Campfire's (2nd) healing, Warm Hugs (3rd)' shield, and Breath of Life's (Ult) heal. His Q (1st) and Fired Up (Passive) damage are not heals or shields.
SECONDARY
Ability haste means more shields, campfire uptime, kick peel, and Breath of Life (Ult) casts; ability power and heal-and-shield power also affect his impact.
SITUATIONAL RUNES
Take this over Revitalize when crowd control is a bigger threat than stronger heals and shields. Its tenacity shortens most disables and grants temporary defenses while immobilized. The shorter disable helps Milio reach his cleanse ultimate or place another protective zone before the crowd-control chain spreads.
Take this over Transcendence against sustained poke and repeated dive pressure. More frequent Warm Hugs (3rd) and Cozy Campfire (2nd) casts help Milio keep his carry protected through several exchanges.
SUMMONER SPELLS
MAIN SPELLS
Flash
Must take. He is fragile and stands behind the fight, so Flash is what saves him when someone gets past his carry.
Heal
He is a healing support and this is more of what he already does best, arriving instantly when his abilities are on cooldown and covering a burst window his range extension cannot.
SKILL ORDER
Skill Priority Order
- 13rd Ability
E - 22nd Ability
W - 31st Ability

Milio Support Wild Rift matchups and counters
Wild Rift matchup guide for Milio Support, covering favorable lanes and difficult counters to prepare for in ranked, plus the duo partners that pair best with this pick.
Good Matchups
These champions are favorable matchups for this pick in Wild Rift. You have advantages against them and can play more aggressively.
Seraphine
Seraphine brings more than poke: Beat Drop (3rd) can root or stun under the right conditions, and Encore (Ult) charms a line of champions. Breath of Life (Ult) can cleanse those non-airborne disables if Milio is free to cast, while Campfire (2nd) sustain helps against her ranged damage.
Leona
Breath of Life (Ult) can cleanse Leona's root and stuns from nearby allies, but Milio cannot cast it while he himself is disabled. Position outside Solar Flare (Ult) and Zenith Blade (3rd) so the cleanse remains available after Leona commits.
Zilean
Zilean can slow with Temporal Mirage (3rd) and a double Time Bomb (1st) can stun, so he does have pick setup. Breath of Life (Ult) cleanses those non-airborne effects, but Chronoshift (Ult) can still revive the target Milio's team commits to.
Janna
Milio's kick is itself a knockback and stun that can start a pick, while Janna can punish with Zephyr (2nd) and tornado. Breath of Life (Ult) cleanses slows but not airborne crowd control, so it cannot remove Howling Gale's (1st) knockup or undo Monsoon's (Ult) displacement.
Morgana
Morgana also brings Tormented Shadow (2nd), Black Shield (3rd), and Soul Shackles (Ult); not only Dark Binding (1st). Breath of Life (Ult) can cleanse a nearby ally's root or tether stun if Milio remains free to cast, but it cannot be used while Milio himself is under cast-inhibiting crowd control.
Milio Counters
These champions counter this pick in Wild Rift and can be difficult matchups. Learn how to play against them or consider banning them.
Pyke
His hook removes the spacing your game depends on, one pull on your immobile frame skips the cleanse entirely, and while a heal does lift a target back over his execute threshold, your healing is a trickle next to the burst that puts them under it.
Thresh
A landed Death Sentence (1st) drags you out of position past anything your cleanse can fix, his lantern undoes the dive you peel, and his flay (3rd) interrupts the moments you need to react.
Senna
Senna wins the attrition mirror on raw numbers: she out-ranges your poke, heals nearly as well while adding real damage, and brings almost no crowd control for your cleanse to answer.
Blitzcrank
You are his easiest target: one hook through a wave gap deletes an enchanter with no escape, your cleanse does not undo the pull, and his threat range alone zones you off your poke spots.
Synergies
The Dragon lane is a 2v2, so the carry you queue with matters as much as the matchup. These carries make the most of what this support provides.
Kog'Maw
Cozy Campfire (2nd) extends Kog'Maw's already long Bio-Arcane Barrage (2nd) range, while Warm Hugs (3rd) supplies shield and movement speed for kiting. Breath of Life (Ult) cleanses nearby non-airborne control, but cannot remove knockups and cannot be cast if Milio is disabled.
Lucian
Cozy Campfire (2nd) covers Lucian's short range, and Milio's heal, shield, or Q (1st) immobilization can each trigger Lucian's Vigilance bonus magic damage. Breath of Life (Ult) can cleanse non-airborne lockdown if Milio stays outside the control chain.
Ashe
Extra range and speed sharpen her poke-and-slow game, and Breath of Life (Ult) cleanses the lockdown that usually deletes an immobile Ashe.
