thank you for base stats nerf, it makes no fcking sense to have a juggernaut lvl of base stats on a mobile melee that has cc and utility

now i wonder why she still has 200 attack range

"now i wonder why she still has 200 attack range"

mimimi new champ has more range than my onetrick ...

dude, flying blades are her theme. morde numero uno will get his rework too. (maybe season 12?)

stop complaining about her AA range, champions are not supposed to fit neatly into cookie cutter archetypes, they are supposed to have unique strengths and weaknesses and are allowed to defy conventions

Even in her rework, the first thing riot does is nerf irelia.

she was strong, and needed a nerf, but I do hope they don't nerf her too much (as they will probably do), because if they do she will burn in hell, same as she was doing in pre rework.

her kit has become more complex, and has now more ways to outplay, and be outplayed. I'm not sure if her ult will matter anything in high elo, where the enemy team knows not to run away while screaming towards the bladed walls, as right now only panic makes people to run towards the ult instead of waiting it out, but if they keep calm, they can maul a nerfed irelia into the dust, making her a useless diver that people will soon forget, similar to Urgot.

Better nerf irelia

I love it. She is at 48% win rate and they nerf her. All the while Shaco, Quinn and Kayle are all 54-55% and nothing.....

Yeap better nerf the melee assassin while Kai and Xayah are still wrecking shit. Can't let anything step on our ranged overlords

Because she's attacking you with floating blades and not a sword of weapon that she's actually carrying. It's actually understandable from her weapon choice as to why she has a higher attack range.

Been playing top all day and couldn't get one game against Irelia because they all went bot for some reason? item 3682

I think the 200 range is more thematic to make her look floatier. I don't think it really affects too much because she still gets bullied in lane the extra range isn't very abusable except in matchups that she would already win.

I've played no games vs. new Irelia yet. Was she really as stronk as she looked?

From the champ spotlight she looked like Yas 2.0... A super mobile "melee" champ, with ranged cc and A "I WIN ALL 1v1's" ult.... Not exactly subtle...

Azadethe4/5/2018, 1:13:02 PM2 votes

200 range is there to reinforce her ability to compete with top laners with large champion models. Hers is relatively small and needs to be able to reach champs like Darius Garen DrMundo Maokai Chogath who all have large champion models.
