Is Irelia kit overloaded?
I see her in matches doing the most damage, being able to build super tanky, having tons of mobility, healing herself, having a parry.....am I missing something or is her kit just way overloaded?

TehNACHO2 votesFunny enough, Riot has a post explicitly detailing why they design Melee Fighters to be overloaded. The example case being Camille, but Irelia falls into an extremely similar design case so most of what's said here can also apply.
The tl;dr is that intentionally overdesigned and overloaded fighters are way easier to balance than simple binary champions who win games or feed hard on a single number change. I really suggest you actually read the article however.
Shmeeve1 votesWell, her main source of damage is her q and auto attacks, which you can only get the free recast of the q if you q on a mark, which is only accessible from landing an e (which is a very thin, short to long range) or her ultimate. So her kit isn't necessarily that overloaded itself.
