Congrats on Gold; I haven't been able to play enough ranked to dig myself out of my early Season 2 hole, Silver for this Kayle player.

Irelia v. Kayle is definitely a skill matchup. Irelia's gap-closer is no joke, Q harass can be counter-initiated on by Hiten + Bladesurge + Equilibrium, and she can withstand a Kayle push because of her ability to last-hit under a turret (and clear waves with her ult). Needs to be a good Irelia, and a somewhat careless Kayle, though. I've been on both sides, and a lot of the time the difference-maker in the matchup is the jungler.
