Let's Talk Irelia

So with the massive buff to Trinity Force, Irelia has quickly risen to the very top of a list of "PICK OR BAN" champs. Her stun is ridiculously long and her damage can two shot any enemy ADC. With Trinity Force getting a CDR and MAJOR attack speed increase, it's just a perfect item for Irelia to build to snowball into infinity. Was any of this playtested beforehand? It seems like I am playing on PBE with Irelia's broken kit, but nope - it's the live client. What gives? Will there be a hotfix or will she be ignored until the next patch comes in weeks? Ekko's stun was greatly reduced, but what about hers?

Ummm not so much a buff as a rebalancing........

It is conditional....... and if she dives your adc she should be massively over extending.

Well, she could 2shot the ADC with crits, not with sustained damage... So this is a nerf to burst dmg Irelia and buff to sustained DPS Irelia.

This is league of legends. Where they fucking nerf the champs that needed to be nerf than quickly break new ones.
