| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Irelia | Irelia's level-1 Bladesurge resets and burst beat your unstacked Q. |
| Level 2 | Irelia | Level 2 her mobility and reset trades keep her ahead. |
| Level 3 | Irelia | At 3 her Flawless Duet stun setup out-duels your combo. |
| Levels 4-5 | Irelia | Levels 4-5 her passive stacks win the sustained trades. |
| Level 6 | Irelia | At 6 her R walls your E escape, keeping the lane hers. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item is a skill window once her E-stun timing is respected. |
| Two+ items | Yone | Yone finally out-scales and R-flanks past her fading lead late. |
Irelia crushes the first three levels: Bladesurge (Q) resets keep her mobile and healthy while your unstacked Mortal Steel can't answer her burst, and a landed Flawless Duet (E) stun turns a trade into a kill. Deny her reset targets, farm at range, and never fight into a set-up stun.
