Introduction
This is my first guide on Mobafire, so the it doesnt looks good, but i will try to update it when I learn to use better Mobafire and will be putting more info in some sections
Irelia when released, people thinked she was UP, but I finded her fun so I played her alot, then Irelia became FoTM and got nerfed several times, mainly nerfing her ult healing.
I wrote this guide because I like to play Irelia alot and didnt like some of the Irelia guides.
I will update this guide so it have images and add more info about the laning and item section
Main rune set
Other runes worth considering
Greater Seal of resilience Use this one when laning VS heavy physical damage like Garen, Pantheon, Renekton Greater Glyph of warding Laning VS Magic damage dealer Rumble, Annie, Udyr |
_____ |
Greater Quintessence of desolation Greater Quintessence of desolation Increase your damage. Greater Quintessence of vigor Greater Quintessence of vigor Gives you more lane sustain. |
Flash I use most of my games flash because it helps you escape ganks and close the gap on a squishy. Teleport I like this spell because it helps you to recall, buy items then be back at your lane without losing exp or minions or help you later in the game if you splitpush then teleport back to your team if a teamfight will occur Other options are: Ghost You can use this instead of flash if you feel more confortable with it. Ignite Increases your burst by alot and helps you with lane dominance or versus someone that can heal: Soraka, Warwick or Nidalee Exhaust Makes dueling almost everyone a breeze, can help you with hard lanes like Renekton, Garen or Udyr and helps reduce damage from those AoEs Fiddlesticks, Nunu & Willump or enemy carries Vayne, Corki |
Doran's Shield I start with this most of the times, makes you tankier and gives you a bit of sustain and armor. Cloth Armor Start with this and 5x Health Potion vs a hard lane like Garen, Renekton, Udyr or Yorick Regrowth Pendant Start with this and 1x Health Potion if you want to buy a philosopher's stone Boots of speed Start with this VS Brand, Urgot, Ezreal or any champion that depends on skillshots to harrass |
Trinity Force This item makes Irelia damage skyrocket and makes her really powerful midgame with the Sheen proc. You should try to get Trinity Force around 16-22 minutes ingame. You should start building it most of the time starting with Phage, then Sheen and last Zeal. Phage gives you health so you can deal with burst from people like Akali, Talon and helps you deal more sustained damage. sometimes you can get Sheen first so you can burst some squishies that go top like Nidalee. Force of Nature With this, Trinity force, runes, and masteries you will be moving 450+ movespeed, which allow her to dive easily in teamfights the squishies on the back. |
Warmog's Armor
I like to get this item, it makes you very beefy with the health it gives and with Atma's Impaler you will have good damage.
It can be replaced with Frozen Mallet
Atma's Impaler
This with Warmog's Armor or Frozen Mallet will give you enough damage.
Infinity Edge
I like to build Infinity edge because it makes your autoattacks and spells Bladesurge, Transcendent Blades hit harder.
this with Trinity Force, Atma's Impaler will make you have 58% chance to crit, making you dangereous to squishies when you crit them for 600+ damage.
Wriggle's Lantern
Build this if you started with Cloth Armor.
Visage
Get this if laning vs a magic damage dealer Singed, Warwick.
Wit's End
I build this if the enemy is Magic damage heavy
Quicksilver Sash
Enemy got Warwick, Malzahar, Skarner giving you problems ? get this.
Guardian Angel
Give you a second life so you can keep killing them.
Frozen Heart
Enemy got a really fed AD carry or got alot of enemys that depend on attac speed Jax, Tristana, Kog'Maw.
Sword of the Divine
Get this versus dodge ***** Jax
Youmuu's Ghostblade
Really good item on Irelia, armor pen increases your autoattacks, Bladesurge, and Transcendent Blades damage, and the active gives you extra movespeed and attack speed for your Hiten Style
[Aegis of the Legion]
Good early game option if no one in your team is buying it, makes you tankier
Ionian Fervor
Reduces the duration of stuns, slows, taunts, fears, snares, and immobilizes for each nearby enemy champion.
1 Champion: 10%
2 Champions: 25%
3 Champions: 40%
Radius: 1200 (sight range)
Explanation:
-This is what makes Irelia such a strong champion, this with mercury threads will make Irelia really hard to keep down with crowdcontrol.
-This ability doesnt affects knock ups, blinds and suppress.
-If you cant see the enemy ( brushes, stealth ), the passive wont detect the champion.

-Use it as a gapcloser
-Apply on-hit-effects ( Wits ends, Madred Bloodrazor, Red buff, Hiten Style)
-At max level it has a 6 seconds cooldown and 3.6 cooldown with 40% cooldown reduction, making it easier for you to stick in the squishies
-With trinity force you can kill with one Q a caster minion, so you can use it as a gapcloser to enemies.
Hiten Style
Hiten Style Passive: (Passive): Irelia's autoattacks restore health to her.
Health Restored: 10 / 14 / 18 / 22 / 26
Hiten Style Active: Irelia's autoattacks deal additional true damage for 6 seconds.

damage)
Explanation:
-Use it on lane to heal yourself when you get low.
-This skill make you deal good AoE damage in teamfights.
-Makes your burst really high at level 6
you should try to farm until you can buy Phage and Boots or wriggle´s lantern and Boots if you started with Cloth Armor.
If you went phage path you should buy vision wards to defend yourself from ganks.
When you get your ultimate Transcendent Blades use it to either keep farming or harrass/kill the opponent.
You should be getting trinity force around the 20 minutes, after that you can keep either farming or force a teamfight at dragon if you are sure you can win it.
Start with Boots + 3x Health Potion, most Akali players start with boots + 3 pots too, so you need to move faster than them so they dont proc the mark of the assasin.
Try to just farm and dont be send back to base.
At level 9 you can fight her back
start with Boots + 3x Health Potion, you can sustain his damage, and he can sustain your damage, so this lane is more about who farms more. Get jungler ganks so he doesnt get out of your team control.
start Cloth Armor + 5x Health Potion, build Ninja Tabi and wriggle´s lantern, most pantheons use mana regen on yellows so he doesnt have the armor, go fight him.
start Cloth Armor + 5x Health Potion, when you get Wriggle's Lantern and Ninja Tabi you will outsustain his damage.
start Cloth Armor + 5x Health Potion, when you hit level 6 you should be able to outsustain his damage with Wriggle's Lantern and Ninja Tabi.
You should never go first, but go second or third after the teamfight starts.
You should ask for red buff to your jungler, Hiten Style + red buff will make anyone melt to the truedamage.
The longer the fight is, the better its for Irelia, Irelia will stun/slow enemies multiple times and deal true damage, winning the teamfight.
-Learn to aim her ultimate Transcendent Blades, it will make you deal alot more damage or save you from death with the heal.
