I think Rito mentioned that Irelia was being considered for a rework. In your opinions, whats your favourite and least favourite parts of her kit?

In my honest opinion, I love blade surge. Love zooming around and mowing the minion wave =) I hate her ult. Feels really lackluster, esp for an ultimate. Maybe if it was on a charge system (ie 4 charges) it would be better, instead of using all 4 charges at once.

How about you guys, what do you guys like the best about Irelia? What are parts of her kit they MUST keep? What aspects MUST be removed?

Thanks !

Irelia's Q is pretty much the thing that identifies Irelia as Irelia I think. It's the main ability that gives her synergy with Triforce and it's the only thing in her kit that isn't binary to use (as in you can actually make some interesting plays with Q). They can do some changes to it (like change the scaling or remove the application of on-hit effects) but it should still be her dash and it should still reset.

My least favorite thing about Irelia is her W, it is both why she is so strong mid game and useless late game. 75 true damage is a big amount when your opponents won't have much bonus health, but when they do it feels like nothing.

i think they should only keep blade surge. Maybe move w healing to her passive, but the rest could go

I agree, the other stuff is just like free stats. free life steal, free true dmg etc. I think she should become more harder to play, rather than her current press w and auto playstyle

I dislike her ult and stun tremendously. The stun is just tilting, but a ranged ult has no place on a champion built to close the gap.

Q by far the best part. easily the most fun ability she has situational stun is second best. I like that it's situational and melee only but fast and reliable

tenacity and true damage are cool too but not great heal on hit is weird but whatever ult is just kinda there. it does damage, but isn't interesting at all. The first thing I would replace. (the second thing being W)

Her Equilibrium strike needs examination. I think this is the strongest part of her kit. It should either be a flat stun only a potent slow only. The ability should not be reflected on health pools.

Her ultimate stinks in the late game. I would be totally fine with her ultimate being different so that it scaled a bit better.
