Damage items are a luxury on bruisers. Irelia already did a good ammount of damage so people just bought tanky items to make her more resilliant in team fights. If you are already winning and you want to secure victory by improving your burst damage/chasing potential then you get it. Damage is useless on a melee champ if you explode on contact with the enemy team.
