How it works

  1. You play as burst oriented Mage.
  2. You build AP items.
  3. You rush Hextech Rocketbelt.

How to play

  1. Playing AP Irelia build, your default rush is Hextech Rocketbelt.
  2. Adapt to an enemy team. Are they full of tanks, and they rush tons of Magic Resist? You rush Void Staff as #2 or #3 item to counter MR stacking. Their team has champs with lots of healing? Rush Oblivion Orb as #2 item (upgrade to Morellonomicon as 4th or 5th item).
  3. Somebody is going after you each fight? Always getting ulted by enemy assassins? Rush Zhonya's Hourglass.
  4. W is your bread and butter tool. It reduces damage (makes you super durable) and has tons of damage.
  5. Your W is gonna hit like a truck. That's one of the tools you use to burst enemies.
  6. Enemy team will often try to burst you if you get close or try to combo. It is way safer to start casting W right away, do not wait for a special moment, because if you get CC'ed, you die.
  7. Combo #1: cast E behind you, Q to minion and immediately E enemy champion, and start casting W for protection and burst dmg, try hitting your target (you need to time it well).
  8. Combo #2: cast R, then Flash into an enemy team (they will not expect it), followed up by E, Q and W. Preferably keep W for disengage.

Tips and Tricks

Build specific
  1. Your Q is still a great farming tool, even if you are playing AP build. Farm!
General
  1. You are an ultimate minion killer, thanks to your Q. You can farm better than most champions. Use it for your advantage!
  2. Combo: You can cast R, then Flash forward to engage, catch unsuspecting enemies and damage them.
Riot
  1. Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.
  2. Defiant Dance is not interrupted by crowd control, try timing it for incoming disables.
  3. Flawless Duet does not have a maximum travel distance, try using it in creative ways.
