Playing as Irelia

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Mark your target before you dash

    Mark your targets with Flawless Duet (E) or Vanguard's Edge (R) before Bladesurge (Q): if the target is Unsteady or dies to it, its cooldown resets.

  2. Stack your passive before trading

    Before a trade, hit minions with Bladesurge (Q) to stack Ionian Fervor (passive): each stack gives attack speed, and at max stacks your autos hit harder.

  3. Catch your target between blades

    Place the two blades of Flawless Duet (E) on either side of your target: only enemies caught between them are stunned.

  4. Tank burst with Defiant Dance

    Use Defiant Dance (W) to absorb a burst: you take less damage while charging, and the longer you hold it, the harder the release hits.

Playing against Anivia

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Sidestep her ice

    Dodge Flash Frost (Q) by stepping to the side: without the chill, Frostbite (E) doesn't double its damage.

  2. Play hard before she hits 6

    Push your wave and take trades before she hits level 6: without Glacial Storm (R), she struggles to clear the wave and can't hold an area.

  3. Drain her mana

    Force her to spend her mana: Flash Frost (Q) costs 80 to 100 mana, and Glacial Storm (R) drains some every second.

  4. Destroy the egg right away

    Focus the Rebirth (passive) egg as soon as it appears: if it hatches, she comes back to life at full health.
