One of these champions is not usually played in this lane — treat the verdict as a rough guide.
How to play it
- Press early
Irelia is stronger in the first levels — shove and deny farm.
- Cut the healing
Soraka sustains — Chempunk Chainsword on your first back.
When you are in danger
- Save your dash for CC
Don't dash in — keep it to escape Soraka's crowd control.

How to beat Soraka
- Pressure her, not her ADC — every heal (Astral Infusion) costs her health and she has no escape.
- Executioner's Calling on the ADC or Oblivion Orb on the mage early — without Grievous Wounds you will not kill anyone.
- The silence (Equinox) is a fixed circle — walk out before it closes or you get rooted.
- Dive her first in team fights — when she dies the team's healing is gone.
How to play as Irelia
- Engage combo: E (Flawless Duet) → Q (Bladesurge) to assassinate
- Q (Bladesurge) resets on kill or marks — chain through minions + champs
- Passive (Ionian Fervor) — 4 stacks grants bonus attack speed + on-hit
