I think I'm the only one.

I'm prepared for this post to be downvoted to irrelevancy. Again, shout out to RIOT for the successful, healthier version of The Blade Dancer. Not sarcasm, click https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/bjjulRbF-the-reality-of-league-tldr-at-bottom to know my sincerity. I've agreed with RIOT's balance team on almost all BALANCE decisions except a few, specifically the removal of Will of the Ancients and an item that I used for tenacity over (been removed so long I don't remember what is was haha)

With that said. Is new Irelia better for the game, yes. Do I like new Irelia... yes, but I prefer the old one. Why?

Irelia was my primary pick vs tanks! I used to go into a full tank build with Lethal Tempo. Here's why.

1. True damage
2. 2.5 second stun
3. Tenacity
4. Healing

I do admit she's no longer braindead and can't turn around a losing lane (though still come to mind)

She's extremely fun to play with, but now there is currently no champ that can fill her role as a sustained TrueDPS tank.

I guess I could try then go tank? IDK.

Anyways, see you guys out there on the Rift.
