Lol, Irelia.

Every character with serious built in Anti-CC is an example of bad design sans maybe Olaf.

No, I don't count Sivir and Noc.

why is built in cc reduction bad design

i can list attributes of any champion and make them sound op if im dramatic enough about it

good design = rewards good people for being good and punishes bad people for playing bad, while having some role in the game (possibly as a lane counter or having synergy with a particular team comp)

if riot thinks irelia is more bad for the game then yorick, then quite honestly there is nothing i can say anymore about them.

yorick feels like a stronger garen in the sense that he cant team fight that well (better then garen in lane and in team fights) compared to other champs top lane

vlad and mordekaiser are the worst designed heroes. nobody should have costless sustain and unharassability in lane
You know vlad and morderkaiser both pay life to cast spell. They only get sustain AFTER purchasing a hextech. Their character design isn't bad, just spell vamp is stupidly strong. NOW energy based champions and rumble mechanics are stupid.

yeah rumble and kennen are pretty bad too. spell vamp in general is annoying because most spells (heals specifically) are balanced around mana, and manaless heroes don't get heals (except shen but he sucks), but spell vamp circumvents all that and makes those 4 compete immovable beasts in lane unless they get shut down early. lifesteal tends to not have this problem because autoattacks are weak early game and strong late game (and are hard to harass with)

put those one of those 0s in your death column instead of the number being 5+ (dont make the 0 go with 1 to make a 10 or more tho) ^^

noone is good at ranged AD because noone is good at ranged AD in general except maybe like, doublelift and chauster (at least in NA)

unless they play tristana or kog maw
