Ok, so ive been playing alot of Irelia in Normals lately and today i ran into a Jayce top. From what i found Irelia "counters" Jayce but i couldnt figure out how. At first i started with 2pots and a flask and managed to "outplay him" for the first 2 kills by using the brush and constantly moving around him to avoid his Qs damage as i noticed from the start that it did a little under half my hp when he managed to hit me. He would harass me with autos constantly as well whenever i came in range. I tried punishing him when he missed but half the time i Q - E'ed him he'd just knock me back and kite me and win the trade. I will admit i was frustrated. Should i have not all inned him after he missed his QE at full hp? Anyways we ended up going even until after about 2 kills when he disengaged while we were both low and landed a lucky q. After that i roamed bot and got a kill but he followed me there with Tele killed me and ended up getting a triple after my jg tried all inning him while he was low making him 6/2. One thing to mention is that niether of our junglers ganked top at any point in the game. Anyways is this lane winnable as an Irelia player? Can i get some tips on what i should do in this matchup and how i should play it? Was rushing phage a bad idea? What should i build instead? How can i outplay him? Thank you in advance.

You can pretty much sustain through all his auto harass so that doesn't really matter.

All in him, you kill him in like 2 seconds cuz you're playing broken cancer freelo irelia

Expand please? And I did try all inning him post and pre 6 and both times he would disengage and kite me. And she doesnt seem broken imo from what ive learned from fighting Darius and Olaf as her.

You build armor and triforce, you Q in, E him, attack a few times with W on, and win the trade.

If necessary, sustain off the wave with ult.

Rinse and repeat until he either runs out of mana or you kill him. If he ever engages on you, E and enjoy your free won trade.
