Who Wins
- You dominate levels 1-3 with Q poke and range advantage, and maintain control at level 6 through kiting potential.
- Your W can negate Irelia's engage attempts while your R provides teamfight scaling she cannot match.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke while maintaining distance, and save W for when Irelia commits to engage with Q dashes.
- Focus on short trades where you can Q and retreat before she can stack her passive on you.
Wave Control
- Maintain slow pushes to keep minions available for your Q waveclear while denying Irelia reset opportunities.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you have vision, as Irelia excels at all-ins when waves are in neutral positions.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W defensively against minor poke as you need it to counter Irelia's all-in attempts.
- Avoid fighting in extended trades where Irelia can stack her passive and outdamage you with sustained combat.
