Why does irelia need a rework and will the rework be a minor one like with Swain/malza etc or will it be like a full rework like the poppy/sion one? p.s. i dont want to see my main champion get removed and replaced with a whole new champion who just has the same name,like what happened with sion.[zombie-nunu-bummed] feelsbadman
D3m37r12 votesRiot said that irelia basically stat checks people. Press all the buttons , if u have good stats u get a kill,otherwise you die. 
will be reworked eventually for that same reason. 
was reworked for that reason.
BlâckLotus1 voteswell my opinion is that irelia,jax and other toplaners are the only counters to overly mobile champions.im honestly tired of when i pick midlane and i get matched against a yasuo or a kata dodging/blocking every stun with ease,i know that those champions have a high dificulty but isnt riot overewarding? dont we need champions with point and click stuns?
VivaLaKitten1 votesXin Zhao is fine though? he's a simple play style champion, and some people like simple
BlâckLotus1 votesit would be real nice if we could have a riots employee answer on this,i am sorry if this question has already been asked.
RageQ21 votesIrelia is getting reworked because she was over powered in previous patches, this was because her ult was constantly coming back up before her opponent could get back to lane in time, right now Riot is still trying to figure out that balance.
BlâckLotus1 votesprevious month riot anounced a list of champions that will get reworked in the next years,in that list there was irelia. i can link you to the thread if you want,im not talking about the nerf in her R.
RageQ21 votesOh okay, it would be nice to check that list out though. I never got to see it.
Lmao Get Mooned1 votesCause her kit is boring as hell.
Irelia Bot1 votesThey kinda have answered a few things that they feel are a problem but they plan to try and keep her Bladesurge (Q) as is or slightly improved.
