literally the only nerf you give irelia is her cooldown on her ult. Why are you so afraid to just nerf the fact that she can build this and carry

As a person who plays Irelia a lot: I can't really see how her Q could be nerfed/changed. The damage on it? You can't really nerf cd of Q, while you're able to reset it. W is ability to sustain yourself and be able to lane against tanks and such, even though thanks to this you can destroy enemy ADC/APC(tho isn't it kinda good? I mean she is Fighter/Assassin) E needs changes overall, but not as in nerf, but rework thing. Her ult is the only thing that was almost literally spammable. You could use it to [get to your opponent / kill him / take minion wave / whatever] every few seconds, especially with additional CDR.

Whenever I heard someone talking about Irelia, they were saying "Use your ult whenever you can, it's going to be up again in no time", so making the cd on it higher is actually a good move, to make you think before using it.

-- Also it's not like you can "only build and carry", it actually highly depends on enemy team, and to be honest on your team.

I also still don't get people, I mean ok, she's a bruiser, fighter that's kinda tanky. Her damage is high, especially if she's ahead, but she has secondary role "assassin" so...

her w is what needs to be nerfed

Not sure what you want to nerf in W? Heal, which is like this 5 / 7 / 9 / 11 / 13? Double heal on activation: 10 / 14 / 18 / 22 / 26?

Or you think it's a good idea to nerf her bonus true damage from W? BONUS TRUE DAMAGE: 15 / 30 / 45 / 60 / 75?

Check other champions, they appear by starts more "broken" or anything. And lot of 'em has true damage, healing, and so on. Some have even more terrifying stats on their skills.

Also you can counter pick her pretty easily, and that means - you can easily play against her. But most people don't get it and pick whatever not minding Irelia. And then they end up crying about her being op.

Plus, it depends on what Irelia builds, not sure if you noticed that it depends on Irelia player, how she goes. Yes she is really strong and high threat when build full damage, like assassin should be a threat. But when built with tanky items and 1-2 damage, she can, ok still kill carries, but she can't kill everyone. And players that aren't buying Frozen Heart against her are fools.

I made Irelias few time ragequit due to cheese with max E, Frozen Heart, Malphite. But I guess most people would prefer to take something like Darius or Renekton due to "Carry champion because I must carry". Or people just actually prefer to cry overall when they are APC/ADC, but even with Jinx I was normally able to kite her around and kill. And that Irelia was as fed. But oh well what do I know.
