Irelia as direct counterpick for Yasuo?

So I just played mid Irelia against a mid Yasuo today. I destroyed him and won the lane. If he whirlwinded me, I get a stun potential and jump on him. Also, Irelia pokes yasuo really Good with her Q, because she can easily escape with her E if he starts attacking.

Everything in Irelia's kit seems like it can make a yasuo's day hell. Am I the only one who thinks this?

Irelia is the hardest match-up for Yasuo in the top lane I've experienced. I'd rather lane against Darius. At least Darius is a slow fat sack of shit who can be avoided.

Outside if Irelia's Ult everything is a melee targeted effect.

Yasuo's power lies in being able to stopped ranged abilities.

Irelia has being been easily able to deal with Yasuo since he was added to the game.

You can beat Irelia with Yasuo if you cheese her in 1-4 levels. After that go tank build and play safe. Only the best ones can beat her, this includes skills.
