I have 3 differents build on Irelia that you can mix and match to make your own irelia all these build are viable some more effective then others but they all have their time and place

There is:
Off-Tank Irelia (build 1)
Heavy Tank Irelia (build 2)
DPS Irelia (build 3)

The Masteries are all viable masteries its just personal preference (if you are taking exhaust or TP always pick up those masteriy points they are so helpful)

I use the same rune page everytime i play Irelia but their is many different was to play her

Summoner Spells always take flash it is so good for utility

i use the same rune page everytime flat armor and MR for early game laning tankyness and Armor Pen Quints and Marks for early and late game dmg

Armor Pen is so helpful on any AD

1/8/21: if you take exhaust and flash i find this mastery page gives you so much late game utility

0/18/12: if you take flash ignite i find this one work the best for a lil early game tankyness and utility for laning

0/21/9: flash tele give you the most tankyness and a lil utlity

I LIKE TO ALWAYS TAKE TANKYNESS OVER DPS FOR IRELIA AND OTHER TANKY DPS

Luxury Items

: If you want some nice MR and dmg against tanks

: for teams with big AoE/Burst/CC

: against teams with Suppression or lots of CC

: For caster heavy teams

: For balanced teams and if you need that little rebirth

: if you are really scared of their ad or if their team is AD heavy

: Great passive good for if you need armor and want to have that slow

: If they have fast auto attackers and lots of AD (not highly recommended)

: If you like a really dps irelia

: if you are going dps and they have lots of armor

: counters certain champions and good for a dps build on irelia

I like the max for the most lane sustain and dmg from the true dmg early game

I max second because it does not scale with anything but AP and these builds don't involve much AP also increasing the level increases the duration fo the Slow/Stun

Maxing because early game u can easly farm with it level 1 and it scales each time u level up

Never forget to get your everytime you can it helps farm sustain and damage

Always take : it is so helpful

Options

: My personal favorite gives you so much utility and escape

: really good for Damage

: works well in certain comps and if you want to take most dragons without the enemy knowing

: i don't really recommend this but if you really like taking ghost make sure you have improved ghost mastery

3 builds mix and match as you please have fun playing Irelia
