How it works
General

- You auto attack a lot.
How to play
General
- As Irelia playing Grasp build - you need to adapt to an enemy team and to the game!
- Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
Adaptation
- 👊 If ahead, consider going for more damage items to snowball.
- 🏰 If behind, go tanky.
- Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
Tips and Tricks
Champion
- You are an ultimate minion killer, thanks to your Bladesurge (Q). You can farm better than most champions. Use it for your advantage!
- Combo: You can cast Vanguard's Edge (R), then Flash forward to engage, catch unsuspecting enemies and damage them.
Riot
- Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.
- 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.
Skill Order
- BladesurgeQ
- Defiant DanceW
- Flawless DuetE
