Irelia is great solo top champion.Its not hard to play with her solo top.Only Thing about irelia is that she doesnt have abillities to harass.So if play against champion like teemo or vladimir it will be hard for you

PROS CONS
great solo top easy to harras
has good CC its to sensetive when ganking her
Not Hard to play

I ussualy take ninja tabi for solo top,but you can use mercurys Threads too.After that i usualy take trinity force,after that you can take phantom dancer or wits end.Get Frozen mallet and end your build with yoummus ghostblade

i usually take heal and flash,but you can take teleport and flash or ignite with flash,its your choice.

Sorry if it was short,this is my first build.Please tell if something is wrong with the build...:D
