I'm sick and tired of the Yi excuses

He does a lot of damage and can tank pretty well in a pinch. The new jungle items just magnify this even more. And nerfs to the jungle items wont fix the problem.

How do you CC someone who doesn't require a gapcloser when his ult is up and you can't slow him to kite him? The second he gets on someone he is going to alpha to dodge CC or do it before hand.

I'm getting tired of all the "BUT HARD CC". Hard CC my ass. Every champ is weak to CC. Yi has an anti slow and a gapcloser than doubles as a high damage source capable of criting 5 people and invincibility frame. He even has a passive that lets him heal and reduced damage heavily even if he flicks it on just long enough for the damage to register. Yi isn't hard, and his skill floor and ceilings are extremely low yet he requires you to counter pick to kill him effectively late game.

Build thornmail? Have fun with his true damage and massive life steal and armor pen making that not do anything but slow his life steal.

Yi needs an actual weakness. Building GA or Zhonya's doesn't solve his problem as he has extremely high dps and can just kill everyone else while you are down and you are your teams damage. As it is Yi is able to trade 2 for 1 with ease which is something that assassins wish they could do late game but he is a melee carry diving a team by himself.

As it is now, you need at least 2 hard CCs to kill a Yi. That means you have 2 less CCs to use on his team and a good Yi won't just split push the entire game. He will participate in team fights and mop up while everyone's CC is down because that is the only thing that can stop him.

The other excuse that he dies in 5v5s. OFC he does. Any coordinated team can wreck a single person that is simple common sense that isn't a weakness that is just logic.

Either:

• Remove his AS slow immune (that is where he grew out of hand is when he gained this)
• Make his heal reduce less damage (means he has to pick his fights more carefully)
• Tweak his Q so it isn't a spammable invincibility frame (ults tend to be the only sources of these, for a good reason, why is his spammable)
