Better Nerf Irelia

Bergk·3/26/2015, 2:02:59 AM·145 votes·9,965 views

I've been playing League since 2010. And the "better nerf Irelia" joke has always been around and probably will stick around! So why not just make a "Nerfed Irelia" skin?

Anyway, I am not a graphic design artist. I just whipped this up (horribly) to relay my idea.

Her primary weapons becomes 4 nerf bats with a nerf ball at the center Transcendent Blades (ult) are Nerf Footballs And the "Mantle of Decorum" (the thingy that's always floating behind her head) is a Nerf Target Board. I found it humorous, hopefully ya'll like the idea :)

Riot do this, yes I know copy rights and all that, just make a deal with nerf to promote their items ingame (via the skin) or something or offer small amount of sales on it idk, but it be worth it

if they find the voice actor to give her new voice overs like her joke would be "Morello said I could enter the rift just this once"

This would be awesome because only older players will get the joke :D

Only if I get a "Better Nerf Kha'zix" skin.

The amount of times Kha'zix has been nerfed completely dwarfs Irelia, for those who actually look it up. Never understood the "Better Nerf Irelia" joke, to be honest. She's only been nerfed like 4 times, ever, and none of them were exactly "crippling", even back then.

Whining aside, I do think it's a funny skin idea. I just think it should be a line of skins, seeing as the "Better Nerf Irelia" joke never made sense to begin with lol

Why just keep it with a skin. Let's make a serie:

  • Better Nerf Olaf
  • Better Nerf Sona

your skin isn't that great. someone should make a better nerf irelia skin. (jk ehehehehehe)

If they did make a "Nerfed Irelia Skin", I'm sure her current skin would become "Traditional Irelia".

No.

I ban her in every draft. Sadly I would never see this skin in action.

Digivolve3/26/2015, 4:36:20 PM1 votes

Finally an irelia nerf so we can have her new skin!!!!

though I would prefer brorelia but with the nerf weapons/rockets, just as homage to ritos love for her in the past.

I really hope it's possible to get around copyright issues for a skin like this.

It's funny, cause aside from this patch, she hasn't been nerfed since 2012.

Crate of Cobras3/27/2015, 12:55:36 AM1 votes

So you're aware that she's hardly actually been nerfed, and thus the joke is just dumbassery on the part of the community?

Well, at least it'll highlight how mob mentality and failure to research affects this community. I guess it shows a general lack of education overall.

TaylorGaylor3/27/2015, 2:22:53 PM1 votes

this is hilarious! I'm sure they're release this skin along with her next nerf!

SGT SWAGLE3/27/2015, 4:48:54 PM1 votes

The release of the skin should come with a nerf to Irelia for the lolz
