Riot hates master yi

I get it, people hate master yi, but riot WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING? Earlier this season they gutted his early game. Ok I can see why. They removed devourer and changed rageblade. Ok, those are his core items but he's still playable. Now he can't reset alpha on invincible targets? Riot I don't think you realize, in low daimond at least, how often fabric and kindred are picked. That change was the most bullshit master yi nerf they could have possibly done. Olaf's E resets on autos against invincible targets, but master yi's alpha can't? What kind of call was that riot, please explain to me.

This change was adding counterplay to a champ with very little to speak of. I say this as a Yi main

Now you just have to bait invulnerability at the very least. It's just adding gameplay Rageblade and devourer were only "core" because of a Hecked up meta that wasn't going anywhere good (especially when tank Yi rolled around). I never deviated from a heavy crit build, and I still saw a lot of success.

I'm a low diamond and high plat yi main and I see your point, but you can't simply bait a kindred or Taric ult late game without their team killing you. Sure your team will back you up but you are useless that whole during of kin/Taric ult. It's a shitty way to nerf yi on top of him being a useless ass champion already.

I thought yi would be considered for QoL buffs, not more nerfs. when has he been a good pick past like... gold? Not since the nerfs you mentioned.

Build;

Razorblade -> Bork -> Stattik Shiv -> Ghost Blade -> Titanic Hydra -> Guardian's Angel

Pretty sure you'll delete everyone.
