Why is irelia allowed to dash so many times and basically be a giant "fuck you"?

Seriously the dashing just shredded right through me as Nasus during ult (giving me 320 armor) and she only had about 190 how tf is this fair Riot?

So, what you're saying is you picked a champion, a juggernaut, whose only weakness is getting kited, and lost a fight to a mobile or ranged champion?

That's kinda par for the course when you're willingly giving up versatility for raw stats with your own pick.

Picking a champion with the same weakness wouldn't get you any further.

And maybe it's a clue you should look at other factors if you usually rely on a champ that's banned most of the time.

I don’t always rely on Darius, my own team banned my number one top laner Yorick, I went with plan B (Darius) banned by opposition, so then I tried going plan C (Nasus)

Besides, as stated I was the first pick OF THE GAME, meaning no matter what they’d just counterpick

For the same reason Nasus has a low CD of the hardest slow in the game, balance.

They have to make some champions OP, otherwise, all the bad players would quit.

Oh look! Irelia cucks downvoting your post. She gets "nerfed" and is still obviously busted. They keep giving these reworks and new champs overtuned kits and then they expect that some simple nerfs to damage will do anything to that trash can faceroll champ. This game is going to die soon. I give it a year.

Irelia didn't receive "simple nerfs to damage." Go back and read the last few patch notes.

You're clearly delusional. The only thing that's broken here is your brain

Irelia does mixed damage btw. If you're losing the 1v1 against irelia as nasus you didn't lane correctly, you should be able to survive and scale against an irelia who isn't unfortunately fed by roams you probably could have gotten something for on your end or at least 950 MMR better than you (think plat vs silver)

Well, she scales a decent amount of on hit Magic damage in her passive, that likely has a bunch to do with it. Also armor has diminishing returns so yeah sure you had a lot of armor but each point of armor beyond 200 was giving you very little value beyond that. Did she build a bork or mortal reminder? The grevious wounds from either one of these could have been an issue, and then there is the 25% armor reduction from mortal reminder. Perhaps she built last whisper, which gives makes her on hit even larger and then even enhances it's effectiveness. Lastly consider her E and ult do magic damage as well.

I don't like irelia, however I am not the least bit surprised she took down your nasus in no time. Against her nasus is probably best going item 3078 item 3110 item 3047 item 3065 item 3156 if you didn't get this.
