Ugh 3 PD and 3 BT... no, just no. That isnt even a Yi build. Dont wanna be rude but that might work in low level play but a little bit more experienced players will just instantly CC and kill you with that little defense.

Same goes for Irelia. She is a tanky melee fighter so she is in the middle of the fight and because of that she needs to be able to take some hits. The items that Nash mentioned are the standard indeed. But to be honest you can build her in so many ways... its hard to tell which is the best.

You usually start getting Philo and HoG (or at least only a Philo) for a strong sustain in lane and alot of gold lategame. With the gp5 and Irelias natural famring abilities you should have the highest gold in the game. (unless someone gets super fed) Now the next step is really situational. Wits End against AP heavy teams, Phage/Sheen when you want to be aggressive Glacial Shroud/Wardens Mail against AD heavy teams.
