Irelia the Blademaster (Irelia Rework)
Helooooooooooow everyone reading this ....... Riot employees too. This is my first ever posting anything like this here or anywhere seeing as its a open platform i see why not, anyways here goes My thoughts on Irelia ... mm were do i start I've playing this game for quite a long time know and I've often thought to my self certain champions in league don't fit there overall theme Irelia being one of them. Her overall theme has way more potential than what she has currently, someone that has a mastery over multiple blades at once. The only thing on her kit that fits that theme is her (R) Transcendent Blades even that ability is a bit mm well, its underwhelming to say the least. it doesn't really capture me as a player i don't feel like I'm playing a blade master, its boring to say the least. There was a post a while back on the league website, regarding this matter of Irelia not fitting her theme as blademaster. as a champion she's not exciting or boring well saying that, the only ability i feel satisfied with is her (Q)Bladesurge its really well design, balanced (however long it took too balance it)
The idea that i came up i with is Irelia needs to do more with her blades and to live up to the potential of being blade master. what i've done is shuffled a couple abilities around and added some. Thought it would be important for a blade master to be both skilled in the art of defense and attack, thus increasing her versatility in battle. if any of you has seen RWBY in one of the seasons there was a character that got revealed known as penny. Penny in my opinion is what Irelia in some way could have been mm sort of but you can see the resemblance between there styles. Here new (E)** Equilibrium's Might** toggles between attack and defense giving players the a opportunity build accordingly. whether its full tank full ad or semi tank
if its a 1v1 2v1 4v1 5v1 irelias kit allows her to fight multiple opponents at the same time (its a team game so of course you'll need back up not trying to turn her in to 1v5 team shredder) ( 
) .
_Bio through years of training Irelia has finally surpassed her father** Master Lito** and has improved dramatically. She knew she had to dedicate her new found style as a means to protect her people making sure a day like the noxian invasion never happens again.. and i dont know were im going with this _
Passive: Mark of Ionia/Starchilds blessing Attack- Mark of Ionia: Irelia passively marks champions every 20secs. **CD is reduced at lvl (6/11/16) (20/18/16/14secs) ** **level 1-- 2 champions level 6-- 3 champions level 11-- 4 champions level 16-- 5 champions ** _(Switching to defense irelia will loose the ability to mark champions) _
Defence-Starchilds Blessing: When below 30% hp Irelia gains a shield equal to 2% of max hp scaling at** lvl (1/6/11/16) (2.25 / 2.5 / 2.75 / 3%)** (Switching to attack irelia will no longer be able to gain a shield below 30%) oo if your wondering its called Starchild's blessing, its because Soraka saved her life during the** Noxian invasion** thought it would be nice little tribute for her
Q: Bladesurge: attack- Irelia dashes to the target enemy, dealing physical damage and applying on-hit effects. _(I felt that her Q didn't need a defense ability i wanted to keep her Q the same being iconic serving as her main engage tool) _
W: (Toggle)** Equilibrium Might**- irelia can switch between attack and defense style. Switching between attack and defense grants irelia attack speed/movement speed for X-secs attack speed(10 / 15 / 20 / 25 / 30%) movement speed(x/x/x/x) decays over the duration.
E: Bladestrike/Hiten Style Defence:** Blade Strike**- Irelia pierces the target enemy, dealing them magic damage and Slow. If her percentile health is equal to or less than her target's, she stuns them instead Attack: Hiten Style- Irelia's basic attacks deal bonus true damage
R: Dancing blades/Ionian's Shield Attack: Dancing blades Irelia spirit blades relentlessly strikes through opponents dealing Ad and magic damage. Passive: Basic attacks deal bonus damage to marked champions Active: - Irelia summons five spirit blades, Irelia's blades will seek out champions striking through them multiple times at blinding speed. (Irelia doesnt need to aim and fire her blades, once activated her blades will seek enemy champions within a set radius)
- _Blades can be avoided by walking out of range _
- Blades priorities marked champions
- _Damage is reduced if 3 or more champions are marked _
- Blades also consume the mark but reduces blade surges cooldown
- If irelia is stunned or cc'ed she briefly loose her psychic link with her blades thus stopping her assault however half the cool down is refunded
**Defence: Ionian Sheild ** Passive- Irelia reduces the duration of crowd control against her based on if she is outnumbered or not (allied champions against enemy champions) Active- Irelia heightens the psychic link with her blades and can block any incoming projectile in all directions within a set radius, however ilrelia's movement speed is drastically reduced while blocking. (animation for blades) blades will spin around irelia
- Allies can also be protected
- Irelia can still be hit by cc
- Enemy champions walking/dashing through Ionian's shield will take damage Here's a link of Penny from RWBY blocking.
As you can tell I've shuffled some of Irelia's old skills around keeping somewhat of her old identity thus players can still familiarize them selves with her but overall i would like to here from anyone give me your thoughts. Anything that's constructive really, its my first time posting anything like this so reply with your opinions and anything that can help improve this idea.
