Irelia Before Other Champs
According to Meddler, the two main things that the update teams look at are which champions need the most help and which ones will make players the happiest once they're done. In Irelia's case, she seems to be a champ that'll satisfy both of those requirements.
"A lot of it was that the team had really strong concepts for how to make Irelia better that they were really excited to work on," Meddler said. "Some of it's also that while how bad a state a champion is in is a major driving factor in selecting VGUs the number of people we can make happy and excited with one's also relevent. Irelia ranked really highly in that regard, in terms of untapped potential and player attachment."
Meddler said that Nunu and Mordekaiser are both extremely high on the list of champions that need updates, so their time will hopefully come soon.
