The "deal" is that Irelia got repeatedly whacked by the nerf bat, sometimes with no preamble whatsoever (her biggest set of nerfs wasn't even mentioned in the patch preview). This culminated in an acid-laced rant (http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=1215498) about a leaked Irelia nerf for the Riven patch, a nerf that was so badly received by the community that Riot backed out of the change before it even went live.

It's funny because non sequiturs are funny. Some of the Irelia nerfs came with no warning and for no apparent reason. See this: http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/35680w/
