Irelia Counters Summary (Continued)

The greatest picks outside of lane to counter Irelia include Zeri, Sivir, and Aphelios. These picks are all great at countering Irelia with win rates over 58%. Even if these Irelia counter picks are not used in the same position as you, it's not a good idea to take her into these matchups. They will very likely crush Irelia.

How to Counter Irelia

Be aware of Irelia's power in the early game. She is a formidable opponent from the get-go, often looking for an early kill to secure her advantage. Stay vigilant, maintain your health, and avoid risky moves during the laning phase.

Irelia thrives in skirmishes, especially around chokepoints due to her mobility and damage reduction. She tends to get ahead in the game when fighting in objective pits, so be strategic about your position and avoid unnecessary confrontations.

Irelia's Passive, when fully stacked, significantly boosts her fighting capabilities. To counter this, try to engage her when her Passive isn't fully stacked, limiting her potential in fights.

The use of her Q ability requires precision. If Irelia misuses it, the ability will go on cooldown, leaving her vulnerable. Use this opportunity to deal damage and secure an advantage.

While using her Ultimate R, Irelia is more vulnerable to crowd control. Use your team's layered CC to disable her and quickly take her down.

In case Irelia decides to split push and draw attention away from the main objective, be ready to confront her. It's crucial to have someone in your team who can match her dueling abilities to prevent her from gaining too much ground.

In the late game, if Irelia is extremely powerful and tanky, strategy becomes vitally important. Isolate her from her team, force her to engage in unfavorable fights, and avoid getting flanked by her.
