To answer your question on why I started talking Irelia on the Renekton page is because this anon above^ thinks that Irelia can 1v5 an enemy team.

Irelia is just like all other good bruisers: if they snowball in lane, they do tons of damage and have a fierce presence in teamfights. An great example of this is the Beserker Olaf. He does tons of damage in lane and if he snowballs, he'll crap on your AD before they can even budge, and then mow down the rest of your team.

If your having worries about Irelia if you are top with her, help your other lanes snowball, since Irelia cannot 1v5, and will die to a smart snowballed team. Sure, it won't seem fun or easy in text, but if you know how to roam like a boss and are a good ganker, then not even a fed Irelia will be able to stop you guys.

If Irelia was really that broken and capable of 1v5ing the enemy team, then why don't pro players use her more, and why isn't she banned more often?

It is a bruiser's job to go in, try to kill any carries, then get out. Irelia has an advantage with that gapcloser and passive, but still can be taken down by a smart team. Like I told this anon, if you or your teammates aren't smart, then you of course deserve the loss.

That is all I have to say to you, Zilla. I do hope you realise that Irelia is just as strong as all the other top bruisers, and no more stronger.
