Is Irelia op? (In 3v3)
Ok guys, so I had this idea with Irelia. What would happen if you were to stack CC reduction on her? Now I'm talking about the Tenacious mastery, with Merc treads, her passive, AND cleanse. In a game mode (3v3) where heavy CC based champions are dominant, what would happen if honey badger didn't give a shit? First lets ask some questions.
-
Are there diminishing returns for CC reduction?
-
What is the maximum CC reduction possible, via in game tenacity items, masteries, champion passives/skills, and cleanse. (CC immunity spells such as, Morgana's black shield and Sion's new ult, don't count. Also CC removing properties do not count, such as cleanse base debuff removal, ect.)
*I just played a game using this build, in the loading screen I saw, the mother of all CC's (now anyway R.I.P. Fiddles and Ramoose) Morgana. I thought to myself 'Wow, what a perfect champ to test this build on.' Yes the holder of the legendary 3 second snare was going to fight, Honey Irelia Badger. In a level 18 skirmish, we were the only two left, 1v1. I saw my chance, she ulted, I used cleanse right before it stuns. Nothing. It never slowed me down at all, then she tossed out her binding. Ouch, full ap Morgana hurts, probably should have done a barrel roll. HOWEVER it merely made me stutter step for less than .2 seconds at least (shorter than Talons new slow.) The Queen of CC has fallen, and the mighty unstoppable Badger walks away with a double kill.
I find this to be quite strong. But what are your thoughts?
Is it op? Should Irelia be nerfed?
More importantly, is it viable in 3v3 ranked play?
