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 Twisted Fate

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off when he shuffles his cards

    Step out of his attack range when he shuffles his cards with Pick a Card (W): if he locks in the Gold Card, his next auto stuns you.

  2. Engage after his Gold Card

    If you can engage, go in right after his Gold Card: without Pick a Card (W), he has no other stun and no dash to escape.

  3. Play safe when he casts his ult

    As soon as he casts Destiny (R), move closer to your tower if you're low: he sees every champion on your team for 6 to 10 seconds and can teleport to you.

  4. Ping as soon as he disappears

    Ping your team as soon as he leaves your vision: Destiny (R) takes him up to 5500 range away, which lets him gank a nearby lane.
