When Irelia Fervent is chosen by a spell and then readied by Blade Dancer Irelia's ability, does she gain +1 or +2 Might total? Does Blade Dancer Irelia target?

Question

Accepted Answer

Ruling: Blade Dancer Irelia does not target. Irelia Fervent gains +2 Might total: +1 from being chosen by the spell and +1 from being readied by Blade Dancer's ability.

Sequence:
- Cast a spell that chooses Irelia Fervent (+1 Might from her ability)
- Blade Dancer Irelia's ability triggers and readies Irelia Fervent (+1 Might from her ability)
- Total: +2 Might

Nuances:
- Blade Dancer Irelia does not "target" because there is no choice made - the unit to be readied is automatically determined by the triggering event (the unit that was chosen by the spell)
