Hey guys, I am an irelia main, I am one of the many who werent too excited about her rework. I like some of the stuff riot did but not all of it. With that being said, my number one frustration with Irelia right now is her W. In the past I have tweeted out to riot on fixing her passive and they listened, unfortunately my twitter is banned because I have been naughty, so I will be listing my W rework ideas here, let me know what you all think.

First idea: Instead of, the longer you hold in irelia's W the more damage it deals, it should be the more damage she blocks or reduces, the more damage she can apply when releasing it, or you can just build up that damage and convert it into extra AD for a few basic attacks. This sounds more reasonable for a bruiser, and would make her W mean more. Her W is strong, but its extremely situational and many times its use is very minimal, and it feels like a very rushed ability, as if riot forgot that bruisers are mobile champs....not meant to sit still or they will get 1 shot.

Second idea: Irelia W initially reduces ALL incoming damage by 60% and it rapidly decays to 30% over the course of 2 seconds, making it more impactful if timed correctly. But not very impactful if the irelia is a noob.

Third idea: Irelia W gives 30% OVERALL damage reduction, but can be cast while moving, and she gains movement speed....ATLEAST THAT WAY IT MAKES SENSE AS A DEFENSIVE ABILITY.

Irelia W does feel really useless when u have to use it really quick or sit still for a long time just to get collapsed on
