since when in a 52-50% winrate champion on 98% of the playerbase "garbage tier".
wtf are u smoking.
and no i dont think
needs buffs either, but..
?
unless your in diamond + he is not only "viable" but actually STRONG.
your whole "premise" that he is "weak" is ignoring 98% of the data that shows he isn't

stop being some "elitist jerk"
does diamond+ matter? yes it does...
but it doesn't matter MORE than 98% of the playerbase
if a champion is going to be balanced it has to be balanced within a range where it is useable for the most people
you cant have a champion balance in bronze and have it being 42% for people in high elo.. just like u cant have it be balance in high elo and have it be at a 56% winrate in low elo... u need to split the difference.. and the larger the winrate differential between elos the more difference there is going to be..
right now
is balanced for 98% of the players... for every player plat and below yorik is a strong pick.. and in diamond + he could probably use buffs yeah.. but those same buffs would break him for the other 98%... so u cant do that.
just like you cant make a champions have a 46-47% winrate in every elo just to keep their "high elo" winrate at 50%
what you would do is you would make it so the high elo plat + winrate goes from say 50% to 52-53%
and the low elo ranges (bronze - gold) from 49-51%..
what you are asking for is to bring yorik into a 50% winrate in diamond + when by doing that would completely break him for the other 98% of players.
and doing so is just you being a selfish person who wants a champion u play buffed. rather that thinking of whats good for the game and the actual balance of said champion.
i have wanted nidalee buffed for years... but may or may not have noticed that after she hit 48% winrate in my elo... i STOPPED asking for buffs... because i KNEW thats she had a 52% winrate in hgher elo... and that nidalee has a large winrate differential... so any buffs that would help me.. would break her higher up...
did i still want the buffs? yeah.. but i knew that GIVING them to her at that point would have been a mistake being doing so would break her in a differen't elo.
even if they would improve her in mine.
now that nidalee is below 50% in every elo.. i feel perfectly fine about asking for buffs to her again... because NOW a flat 2% winrate.. even if added in every elo.. isnt going to break her anywhere..
you on the other hand, are IGNORING this; and are asking for a buff to a champion that if done would 100% break them for well over 90% of players.
and YOU dont care. you only want this buff your YOURSELF and don't care how it would affect others
and that is why i disrespect your opinion.
because you only care about YOURSELF and not about how that change will affect others.
