I'm really curious what Riot thinks about Master Yi right now

Master Yi has been on a weird rollercoaster lately. First, he saw a resurgence in play with the rework to Rageblade (specifically the one that removed Blasting Wand) and the introduction of Conqueror, but since then:

  • Direct changes were made to Alpha Strike in response to gold funneling

  • There were nerfs to Rageblade and Crit (crit is still much weaker than it was before 8.11)

  • Conqueror (his main rune right now) has upcoming nerfs

  • There are more coming nerfs to gold funneling that will indirectly affect his ability to scale and purchase items

I realize the boards don't like Master Yi (nobody likes him except Master Yi mains, I know) but he doesn't deserve more nerfs right now. He's balanced in soloqueue (well, as balanced as Master Yi can be) and stopped being picked/banned in LCS/LCK a while ago.
