Jayce/Elise/Renekton can just shut her down completely, take her tower and go kill the other lanes and force teamfights while Irelia is still trying to reach her sweet spot (but if you played it right she won't get there in time).
Maybe I'm not seeing enough well played Irelias but she just doesn't carry games like she used to anymore.
I normally win my lane and farm hard till I get to the sweet spot of randuins/frozen heart/sunfire Bork and Trinity Force. Then I can wreak house. I agree though all her core items cost an insane amount of money compared to her season 2 core items. PS. I feel renekton is an easy win in lane with irelia (from my experience) but then again im in lolsilver.
