People suddenly want Irelia to get nerfed?

Why? The Q buff from a while ago didn't do much, and what's made her stronger is the trinity force changes. I'm an Irelia main, so obviously I'm going to be bias, but I don't think Nerfing her is the fair corse of action here. Sure she's strong, but she falls off late game heavy, Plus without her, many of the annoying ranged match ups would have a much easier time dominating top.

I don't play Irelia but i must say it's not only her that got buffed with TF changes. It would be easier to balance TF rather than nerfing all the champs. Maybe i'm wrong but just an observation.

Knowing Riot, they'll nerf Trinity Force and Irelia, leaving both to be inefficient picks for the rest of the season. I don't know what possessed them to change the item so much, but by doing so, they indirectly buff or nerf a lot of champions. They should have just left it alone, as its always been one of the more cost efficient items in the game. Why fix what isn't broken?

item 3057 can keep the CDR though. I actually liked this change.

People want her nerfed because she's annoying to lane against, and is one of those "overly one-dimensional champions" (think Pantheon, Diana, Xin Xhao) that are absolutely annoying to deal with when the are ahead or just overtuned in general. In addition, with how many raw stats her kit has (true damage, life on-hit, stun that rewards her for doing poorly), it makes her an absolute nightmare to balance and will be that way until Riot reworks her.

She needs a kit rework, her kit is literally the most toxic ball of random stats thrown onto a champion.

it's not her, its the item changes.

But the item changes were directed at her.

The only broken thing is her stun. Udyr is the only other fighter left with point and click stun.
