Dr. Mundo vs Irelia

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize safe farming with (Q) to avoid giving Irelia easy all-in windows early.
Accept a low lane pressure role focusing on health scaling and outlasting her burst and resets.

Trading pattern

Take short trades when (Q) lands and your passive can block her stun (E).
Avoid extended fights before (R) and health items as Irelia can punish your low early durability.
Use (R) proactively to survive her burst and chase attempts, then extend trades while healing and moving.

Danger windows

Be cautious around level 2 when Irelia can stun and reset with (Q) for all-in attempts.
Avoid extended trades when your passive is down, as her stun and resets become more threatening.
Watch for her (R) engage window; do not commit to fights if (R) is available and you lack your ultimate.

Early game

Use (Q) to farm from a distance and avoid extended trades before level 6.
Respect Irelia's level 2 all-in threat when she has (Q) and (E) available; avoid fighting without your passive ready.
Avoid missing (Q) as it reduces your ability to safely farm and trade against her mobility.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) before her all-in to absorb damage and maintain pressure.
Your first health item significantly boosts your durability; play more confidently in side lanes then.
Respect Irelia's level 2 power spike with (Q) and (E) for stun resets and her level 6 (R) for engage and slow.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure by farming safely with (Q) and passive crowd control block.
Outscale Irelia by reaching health item spikes and using (R) to absorb damage in extended fights.
Force side-lane pressure where your durability and healing outlast her burst and resets.
