Yuumi seems like shes a design failure

I mean, shes still at an average of 35~36% wr even after that massive hotfix buff.

Going to take a lot more than that to make her even remotely decent it seems.

Until then, i suggest dodging if someone on your team picks her as its basically 4v5 (and ur bot lane is going to lose hard).

According to Lolalytics, she's up to 40% as of yesterday. IINM this includes her disastrous games from pre-hotfix in the average. It's therefore biased downward from an accurate assessment. https://i.ibb.co/vL36jNP/image.png Give it a fucking week. EDIT: Disregard the 5/18 stat ofc. It's based on two hours of games.

That still looks atrocious.

And lol, that 20 something wr in the first 15 minutes jesus... Like i cant understand, sona is stronger in lane while scaling even harder.

Yuumi just doesnt have a place in the game.

Seriously... Same story with every new release/rework... The champion is a few days old on the live servers. Give it time.

Yummi brings a completly new dynamic to the laning phase. That alone will take some time to get used to. The champion has potential to be top tier in a coordinated team. Probably not good for Solo queue.

I expect her to rise to at least 51% win rate in 4 patches time.

No, it's still a 5v5. One of those champions that can't be targeted for most of the game.

yeah once they buff her to be able to come back after taking a smoke break and do one full rotation to burst people out and heal like a soraka/sona hybrid. But that seems like a problematic champion.

She will probably be a problematic champion. Maybe not now, maybe not next year, but at some point; her invulnerability is a really powerful tool. Thankfully, she's supposed to be an enchanter, so if they need to nerf her damage it won't feel so bad.

shes a high skill cap support. she also relies on your allies being good to be good.

that's the legit definition of a low skill useless champ, what you are saying is that it only works when your team is better than the other team. High skill? you can play it while reading twitter or name a random task because all you need is a smurf in a low elo game, who can win 2v1 anyways. The only time I saw yummi win was because we had a fed zed and she left bot and helped him roam, but it was not because yummi was good, it was because zed was good and could carry with literally anything else.

More aware and cooperative with Yuumu is not saying "Better than the other team."

Most players right now are literally running AWAY from Yuumi, not toward her. They pull back while she clearly has a Q out and is trying to use it. They actually pull her ULT back, so it hits twice and never hits again. They dive 2v4's.

if you are not using your W and moving ally from ally and utilizing her kit to her fullest, it will result in a low winrate.

her numbers are still unimpressive a massive hotfix buff that buffs everything isn't that special if the result still isn't outstanding because the initial state was so weak

IT IS NOT YUUMI. IT IS HER TEAMS.

  1. Team that resigns to failure on champ pick has a 8% less chance to win. FACT.

  2. Team that doesn't accommodate said "Team champ" loses!

  3. Adc/Ride who consistently pulls back EVERY SINGLE TIME Yuumi throws a Q, causes losses.

  4. Laners who dive 4v5, abandon objectives, lose games.

  5. Laners who pick a squishy team with Yuumi force the loss.

  6. Laners who passively feed a base away.... force the loss.

THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING EVERY SINGLE GAME.

In reality:

-Yuumi is matching teams in DPS -Yuumi can match NAMI in heals. -Yuumi can match Sona in shields. -Yuumi is overall fine.

HER TEAMS ARE NOT.

Her win rate wont really improve till folks change what they are doing. My $ is that item 3174 is going to be a core item and you will only see subpar results for item 3285 or item 3504 Rushes.

Just give it time, the New champion effect will expire and the folks who enjoy and understand her kit will start to shine. How many times do we need to see the community FK up on builds before its clear that first week data is not super accurate?
