Irelia nerf reverted and she gets buffed on top of it. That's disgusting, Riot.
V8.13
Ionian Fervor
Base on-hit damage per stack reduced to 1 - 12 (based on level) from 2.5 - 16.5 (based on level)
V8.15
Ionian Fervor
Base damage per stack increased to 4 - 17 (based on level) from 1 - 12 (based on level).
The one thing that made Irelia OP was her massive on-hit magic damage early game. Way too strong, wins any 1v1, impossible to itemize against since she's supposed to be an AD champ. It got nerfed. And now it's even stronger than it used to be.
So a level 3 Irelia now has 22 on-hit magic damage, which procs on each Q (used to be like 6 pre-revert). 40 on a level 9 Irelia. Urgh.
I give up. If you can't beat them, join them.
