Complete Guide to League of Legends Champion Irelia
The desert regions of Shurima are home to diverse and remarkable creatures, each adapted to survive in the harsh environment.
Dormun are massive creatures with protective chitinous plates that can sense hidden water reservoirs. Some nomadic tribes have built permanent homes on their backs, establishing a symbiotic relationship.
Eka'Sul are desert goats that travel in herds, while Mwatis are goat-like creatures valued for their wool and protective head plates. Kmiros are giant scarabs that hunt in swarms.
The Xer'Sai, led by their queen Rek'Sai, are void creatures that plague the southern deserts. These dog-sized predators burrow beneath the sand and ambush caravans. Other void creatures known as "outerbeasts" also inhabit the region.
Ralsiji are aggressive minotaur-like quadrupeds with long limbs and thick horns. Shuriman Camels are well-adapted for desert travel but remain vulnerable to predators.
Sandswimmers are massive creatures that "swim" through sand using their narrow bodies and webbed feet. They follow predictable patterns and feed on small desert creatures.
The Skallashi are large quadrupedal herbivores prized for their endurance and carrying capacity. Despite their bad tempers, they are treated with reverence, often decorated with protective symbols and used for both transport and mobile living quarters.

- Q (Bladesurge): Dashes to enemies, dealing damage and healing Irelia
- W (Defiant Dance): Reduces incoming damage while charging, then releases a damaging strike
- E (Flawless Duet): Places two blades that converge to stun enemies
- R (Vanguard's Edge): Launches blades that create a damaging perimeter around champions hit
Originally inspired by Himura Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin, Irelia received a complete visual and gameplay update in 2018, transforming her into the Blade Dancer she is today.
