She's like a tankier version of yasuo
After getting like 3 whole items, not counting boots.
why take the traits of a hated champion in the community and release another like it?
She's not like Yasuo at all. Her dash is much more conditional, her damage reduction, what could well pass for a windwall only benefits her, her stun is difficult to land against any competent player.
High dmg.
Unless you´re all giving her resets to turn her into Katarina, her damage is actually pretty average.
Burst
Unless you´re playing her full AD, which you shouldn´t because she pops like a zit.
Stuns
ONE very conditional stun and ONE very conditional disarm.
Mobility
Very conditional mobility, especially early on.
worst of you shut her down in lane but like Yasuo she just waits for her mid game powerspike and then proceeds to utterly destroy the rest of your team making any good work you don't in lane to control her useless.
I mean, she has a pretty garbage early game. If you shut her down early but let her free farm to get her items and powerspikes, of course all you did to her early on is going to be useless.
That´s like complaining you left a Kayle 0/8 in lane, then ignored her because you thought she was worthless. Then 30 minutes later she starts shitting on you because she reached her most powerful state.
You put a champion behind, you either keep them there or close out the game before they reach their spikes. You don´t stall, you don´t let them free farm. You made them pay the price for being put behind, make them pay the price for trying to come back into the game.
This champion is toxicly unhealthy.
Compared to her pre-rework self, Irelia is healthy champ design in a nutshell.
