This includes every troll build ever and every player trying to learn her, even the free week players. Plus, statistics are usually undependable in this case, so I wouldn't put too much faith in that site. If you're going to go by it, then Warwick is the strongest hero in game right now. And she has a 46.6% ratio for solo queue, the 47.27% is for normals.

Anyway, I wouldn't measure her by the average and say she sucks. Average in LoL is pretty bad. You don't expect the average player to play Anivia or Cassiopeia very well, why presume the same for any other champion? I don't think statistics apply very effectively to LoL. I consider myself an okay Irelia player, above average but definitely not OMGSOAMAZING with her, she's the only top laner I have and I don't even like top laning in particular and I have a 83.33 win % with her in solo queue, so yeah, I wouldn't read too much into it. She doesn't "suck", atleast not for the reason that the layman can't do well with her.

@OP Actually the only thing they nerfed was her sustain, they in no way nerfed her damage other than a slightly longer CD on her R, so I doubt that's the problem. They're pretty much just pissed because her sustain was nerfed and now she loses her lane pretty easily to most solo tops....... if you don't know how to play her. Irelia is fine.
