8.16 Irelia

Irelia was turned into a bruiser again, heavily relying on her autoattacks(with stacked passive). However, it has become even harder to her to stick to people because of increasing CC and the lack of her CC(and the uselessness of tenacity because of knockups).

I see no reason why her stun is only 0.75seconds. Even because it marks for her Q it's not a reason to have a CC barely longer than Akali's on a bruiser. After the Sterak's nerf I feel like she needs something more to help in some matchups.

This champ used to dump on Yasuo but her stun was made into a hard-to-hit mindgame telegraphed skillshot. And I feel that thanks to all the nerfs, her E is way too important in doing anything in Laning phase or teamfights while having ult on cooldown.

When behind, most bruisers can use the utility in their kits to turn the game(Jax E comes to mind) But Irelia has very negligible CC with reduced Durations(yes even her Disarm is underwhelming since some enemies can just stand inside the blades and kill you), therefore coming back without sacrifice for cs or kills is very difficult.

I believe the solution would be a E duration Buff or shifting some power elsewhere.

Just my thoughts.Irelia
