Nerfing Nunu and Yi (when they're not even the most effective funnelers) instead of system changes?

Riot feels at least two weeks behind on developments in funneling. Xayah/Rakan funnel, funnel the kai'sa, funnel the lucian, funnel the irelia etc.

You can funnel literally anyone as long as they can kill a jungle camp and scale reasonably well.

This does nothing to solve funneling. At all. And I'm really disappointed.

The nerf to Yi's Q was low hanging fruit because it's not a nerf to traditional jungle Yi and he's rarely played in lane anyway.

well stupid question isnt the reason you go bot lane with a support having a gold income item and giving all the gold/cs and kills to the ADC to funnel them to get them their items and power spikes to carry the game? now the meta shifted where they are using mid adc with smite with a support as a jungler and funneling that way its a problem ?

Wow it's like they even said that they were going to tackle outliers that are too strong regardless and then see if it's enough or not. Also there is a deadline for changes that can go into a patch. If something happened yesterday they cannot just go and say "patch is tomorrow so let's add this nerf to it"

People still complaining about Yi. Then you got your traditional one trick yi that plays crit like myself which none of them nerfs matter. One shot aa waves. the q nerf too minions in lane hurt a lil but the mana reduce was much needed. If you a jg yi and your blue get taken only take 3 qs to go oom.
