| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Syndra | Level 1 favours you as Irelia is one of the weakest early laners and your Q pokes freely. |
| Level 2 | Syndra | Level 2 favours you since your poke pressure stops her from stacking passive on the wave. |
| Level 3 | Syndra | Level 3 favours you because E stuns her out of Q Bladesurge engages. |
| Levels 4-5 | Syndra | Levels 4-5 favour you as your QQE trade beats her all-in when you counter-stun the dash. |
| Level 6 | Syndra | Level 6 favours you because R plus E stun bursts her before her passive ramps. |
| First item | Syndra | First item favours you as armor and range let you survive and punish her engage. |
| Two+ items | Syndra | At two-plus items you favour the matchup by poking from beyond her dash range. |
Levels 1-2 favour you: Irelia is weak before she has Q resets, and your Q Dark Sphere poke pushes her off the wave while she can't punish safely.
