Guide to Synergizing Irelia and Nocturne

Tips for Playing as Irelia with Nocturne

Defiant Dance is not interrupted by crowd control, try timing it for incoming disables.

Flawless Duet does not have a maximum travel distance, try using it in creative ways.

Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.

Advice to Understand How Nocturne Will Play

Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.

Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.
