So from an avid support main (and Yuumi main,) let me offer you some advice:
Your match history consists of a LOT of support
and
. You're not going to beat like to hear this. If you really want to win lanes better, stop playing those champions, especially
as support. If you want to be relevant against a champion that can heal, you need to be able to engage on her AD hard, and I mean like glue. And this isn't just good for Yuumi lanes, this is just how you should be approaching support in general.
Some recommendations for dealing with her:
1: Ban her if you don't want to see her, though there's better bans in the game right now.
2: Remix your pool of supports.
-
- Really doesn't benefit as much from support as he does from a solo lane. You might be able to catch people off of guard with his cage, but otherwise it's not too likely you'll get much poke off with the wave positioning the way that it does bottom lane.
-
- Offers some okay poke and some phenomenal engage potential after level 6, but that's where his biggest Achilles Heel lies. Pre-6 you're a walking sack of gold for Yuumi to poke down with her Q and Cut Down. He offers virtually no threat to an enemy AD who's smart about their own positioning and minion wave management.
-
- Good for poke and making some cheeky picks, but you'll tend to AoE a wave and frustrate your own marksman more often than not. Turret-taking potential is huge, but
can heal up that poke pretty reliably.
If I had to make some recommendations, here's a few that have worked for / against me personally when played right:
-
- The top of the top to make a Yuumi player sad. Especially early, if she hops off of someone and doesn't have her W available, it's a prime time to catch her out. Any engage that you go in on her expect to be
and
, so make sure you're at level 3. Most Yuumis are probably still running Q max early, so you can take advantage of that.
-
- Consistent poke, good CC, and a dominating lane-pressure spellcaster support, I firmly believe if you can avoid AoE'ing the wave too badly with him, you can make a lane super-easy.
-
- A Hidden-OP counter in my personal experience. If Yuumi goes out to shield-bop you, you simply E where her ADC is and engage with your own ADC. She can't do anything in that silence.
-
- He puts the GOAL in GOLEM. For real though, a good blitz can wreck a Yuumi lane.
-
- These champs offer good chunks of CC and catch potential.
3: Play her and learn her weaknesses for yourself.
I'm not kidding, it will help you immensely to understand where she's vulnerable and most likely to fold in lane.
TL;DR: Yuumi is counterable, it falls on you though to review what you can do to counter her. She's in a much weaker state now as compared to release. As harsh as it sounds, you're going to have to learn how to avoid tilting the moment you see her on the enemy team. I believe in you on this, just try out some new champions in flex-queue, find what works and grow! You got this!
