How to play it

Sidestep her E
When she commits to a fight she leads with E: it gives her two Q dashes onto you, so sidestep it and her all-in falls apart.
Punish her dash
Whenever she Q-dashes onto a minion: including your own low-HP ones, she's committed and out of position, so punch her and look for the kill as she tries to leave.
Respect 4 stacks
With 4 passive stacks she outduels you, and she keeps them up by Q'ing low minions to zone you off the wave: back off until they drop unless you have a clear edge.
Never trade into her while she's sitting on 4 passive stacks: underestimating that one window is how Irelia snowballs a lane you should win.
