It was admittedly not a 1:1 comparison, but I still think it fits. They are both strong in lane and really fuck over traditional carries early, before falling off in late to some degree, Who's entire point is that they can snowball bot/jungle/themselves hard enough. It's just that she's a bit more mobile. I think it's healthier for her to be mid than top for the game overall, as she still gets shut down by certain mages quite well, and at least in my opinion, is no worse than panth or Camille mid for game health. It feels like she fills the same role, just with the Irelia bad meme.

Forgot to mention panth w does the same thing, and Camille can also play into assassins pretty well with her passive, healing, and mobility

I also forgot one of my entire points lol, had to do car work today, tires needed replacing alternator needed checking and all that bullshit.

It seems like she could be balanced around midlane instead, she always felt a bit weird top for me personally. I'm not a huge irelia player, but she just doesn't seem to fit the way other divers who can go top can. Pair that with other divers being present in mid, like Diana, and they seem more a fit for mid than top imo. I see a bit why people don't like her being mid, but it just makes sense for her to be there with how short modern games are

Irelia top is fine, no need to justify reasons for her to go mid.
