Why pick irelia over jax? Better laner in general getting to your necessary items isn't as risky and her base stats are generally better, her stun lasts twice aslong as jax at max rank which makes her more of an assassin and jax a more general purpose all around fighter.

Also i prefer irelia to jax because she has innate sustain whereas you need 2 full items to even "feel" lifesteal on jax.
