In a more general sense, build health. She gets a lot of her damage from true damage, so a lot of health mitigates that. Also, building Warden's Mail and Executioner's Calling can give you an advantage if you can fit it into your build. In terms of playing against her, just know your champion. Irelia beats people who don't know what thwyre doing, so take that factor put of the equation. Also, don't use champions who rely on resists to win (like Poppy or Galio) and try to reduce her attack speed as much as possible (Darius, Lee Sin, and Nunu come to mind). Remember she has a gap closer, and remember that it has a long cooldown.
