This has been bothering me for awhile

  • when pro or just regular player don't fully heal at base like, you recalled for a reason stay there and fully heal the lane is not going running away from you just chill you killed your lane opponent they will be missing way more cs than you just slow down and heal at the base FULLY

  • when people use irelia's ULT to clear a minion wave...(the cooldown has been increased)

  • people in game that tell you how you build your champion like it doesn't matter which game mode if your Irelia and you don't rush item 3078 every single game despite you and the enemy's team comp prepare to get yelled at in chat "omg this irelia did not rush trinity force what even are you building" Enemy team comp: Ahri Lux Katarina Diana Kayle your build:item 3102 item 3072 item 3057 item 3047 item 3512 ( cuz you know all AP and 3 ap assassins )

  • when bot loses their lane hard and goes 0/16/4 in 20min and they flame you for dying once in the first 20 min "wooow irelia i can't believe you died to garen (an irelia's worst nightmare) you suck. and you point out how garen summoner 12 bot and and took both their asses to school.

  1. Sometimes it's more important to get back onto the field that 2-3 seconds faster, than to take the extra 80HP into the lane. This game is largely about timing and using it to your advantage, losing 3 CS to the tower for 80 extra HP isn't a good trade off.

  2. I regularly clear the minion wave with Irelia's ultimate, it lets me leave lane very quickly to do something elsewhere on the map. Her ultimate will really only help me a lot in a 1v1 situation, she has plenty of damage to kill people without it.

  3. I would also wonder why it was that you build BT and ZZ'rot before Trinity Force, and didn't opt for the Spirit visage to amplify the healing on your W and Ultimate. I personally think Bloodthirster is a pretty awful item on Irelia, but that's just me I guess. You also could have opted for item 3156 it's a great anti-assassin item. Certain powerspikes on certain champions are exceptionally important, Trinity Force on Irelia is one of those situations.

  4. This one is immensely frustrating, but unfortunately it's your job to carry their dead weight corpses over the finish line regardless, which is understandably impossible at times. I'm also of the opinion Irelia should actually be shit stomping Garen since he's an awful, obvious, one-dimensional champion who provides basically nothing to a team and his early game bullying got shifted to mid-late game with the juggernaut update, making him pretty much useless all around.

That's my imput on your situation, where you use it constructively or ignore it is up to you, just wanted to put my two cents in.

Because health regen and mana regen make up a decent difference, some abilities are buffed from lower health (notably Irelia's E), lifesteal items make up the difference, and if they already killed their laner can do it again so pushing ASAP might deny some more experience and gold while snowballing that player further ahead.

  • when people use irelia's ULT to clear a minion wave...(the cooldown has been increased)

Irelia can also generally beat another laner just by facerolling and her ult is kinda meh otherwise. Might as well use it to farm and heal up off minions.

  • people in game that tell you how you build your champion like it doesn't matter which game mode if your Irelia and you don't rush item 3078 every single game despite you and the enemy's team comp prepare to get yelled at in chat "omg this irelia did not rush trinity force what even are you building" Enemy team comp: Ahri Lux Katarina Diana Kayle your build:item 3102 item 3072 item 3057 item 3047 item 3512 ( cuz you know all AP and 3 ap assassins )

Except Trinity Force makes Irelia able to 1v1 basically every other champion at that point and is a truly massive powerspike. There is a reason LITERALLY every high elo and pro player rushes Trinity Force, because it's enough to make a feeding Irelia still able to outduel anyone. Every single item you listed is bad compared to Trinity Force, especially since all of those enemies are squishy and would die to a Trinity Irelia. Even if for some reason you didn't buy Trinity Force all the other items listed are worse rushes with the only other item in the game that isn't almost gimping yourself being Maw of Malmortius.

So the problem is less "other players telling one player how to build" in your situation and more "other players telling one player to actually build the completely powerful made for their champion item instead of random crap".

  • when bot loses their lane hard and goes 0/16/4 in 20min and they flame you for dying once in the first 20 min "wooow irelia i can't believe you died to garen (an irelia's worst nightmare) you suck. and you point out how garen summoner 12 bot and and took both their asses to school.

Other then the fact Irelia has a 53% winrate vs Garen (http://champion.gg/champion/Irelia) yeah. Still rather bad form to have your other laner tp bot and not at least spam ping and try to force cancel their teleport or teleport bot yourself.
