Irelia's E is broken

Why does it stuns for 2 seconds at maximum rank? It is point and click stun on a champion with very good scaling and too much snowball potential if she goes ahead in lane. Can we make it to a maximum of 1.5sec?

Honestly, I don't think numbers nerfs are the right way to go with Irelia. If you keep nerfing her numbers, she's just going to be bad, and that's not a satisfying solution for anyone.

If they want make Irelia less frustrating to play against, without just dumpstering her, they need to make some deeper changes to her kit.

She's a bruiser with a dash, a point and click stun, high sustain, free tenacity, and a mix of magic, physical, and true damage. It's easy to see why she's so snowbally.

She needs a more focused kit, with clearer strengths and weaknesses. Right now, she's not very thematic or interesting. She's just a super bruiser with a bunch of random stuff jammed into her kit.

I think nerfing her stun wouldn't maker her that trash. Her kit would still be good and she would be less snowbally
