Yi or Essence Reaver, your choice riot.

Rework one or the other, or lose half of your playerbase. I refuse to play against a champion that becomes untargetable every 0.5-1 seconds and at the same time does 600 damage to 3-4 targets. CC wont work on him because as i said, untargetable every 0.5-1 second. Little to no counterplay, get your entire team to focus him while rest of yi's team deletes yours and he still manages to Q+Autoattack your ADC for 90% max health damage, not to mention he might survive anyway just by pressing W and reducing your damage to non-existant while waiting his Q to get off cooldown again to keep doing those juicy 1500 true damages in 1.5 second(got to see it the hard way as 4000hp+300armor rammus). So yeah, make your choice or feel the cries of all people from bronze up to diamond. [slayer-pantheon-popcorn]

Edit: Since this post also gets downvoted to hell by yi fanboys with no descent arguments, ill post a link to another similar discussion that has few upvotes and support with valid point arguments. I think they might have explained this a little better than i have:

This is more regarding to his true damage but it's nearly the same point, his cooldowns and damage are way off than it should be allowed to.

What? I don't build Essence Reaver on Yi. He's all about on hit aspd. Also, if you can't target someone in 1s gaps then you need to practice your reflexes.

I don't think you are half of the playerbase.

LOL item 3508 MasterYi isnt even that good. He'd much rather have item 1419 item 3124 item 3026 item 3153 item 3053 etc, its basically a cheese item on yi

ER seems good but there are other items that are more beneficial. Most of Yi's damage comes from his autos. With Guinsoo's his Q is already on a short enough cooldown that he can pretty much alpha dodge everything in a 1v1

"lose half of your playerbase" yes, i'm sure Riot will reply well to you threatening them. I'm sure you have all the connections to burn League of Legends to the ground. [slayer-jinx-unamused]
