I'm so sick of Yi just being able to parade around like nothing.

I insta-ban Yi every game, but I feel like the moment I forget to, I go against him. Then even when he does bad, if he hits 18 full build, it's basically pointless having any tanks on your team. And before you tell me "just cc him and you're good", yea sure, cc him so the MF standing back line can just ult your whole team, or the Swain can just float around in his ult and burst down all your squishy champs.

I think you took his kit to far when you added True Damage to his kit Riot. Remove it. In fact, just remove all the true damage poison from this god forsaken game. You discuss how snowballing is ridiculous right now, but then throw in true damage to everyone's damage and give them that damned advantage to snowball... Where is the common fucking sense here?

Great post, except you cited zero statistics (because they happen to prove you wrong)!

I hope people on these boards come to realize facts matter more than how they feel when it comes to balance.

you do know that their is a tactic with MasterYi and Taric that is extremely op right? is right now the most scummy and strongest tactic in china servers

Then that's not a Yi issue, that's teamwork.

And for the record, any diver+Taric is going to be an insanely strong combo late-game. They're both some of the strongest scalers in the game.

Technically he can if he's full build with thornmail vs an adc

Or if he's full ap

Kayle x Yi was a thing but guess what? That faded out because it's not that good in reality.

Hence the whole 46.6% winrate.

did you try it? or did you heard it?

You heard it because of a circle jerk from Reddit. Now here is the DOPA's account find me the games where he is banning Yi or taric countinously like the reddit claimed, sure he probably faced a yi/taric comp may be once or twice while he was climbing. But that shit doesn't actually work, once you have played against it.

It's called a funnel comp, where you funnel all the resources in one champion. Before you would see protect the kogmaw, it was basically this, you saw before kayle/yi, it was basically this.

It doesn't matter which champ you play this comp on, it has certain weaknesses and certain strengths. You can do yasuo/ taric or irelia/taric with the same concept or any other diver carry + support(who is giving resources to the carry)

And are those statistics calculated by higher elo? Yes most likely. But anyone trying to just walk out of silver and gold can take Yi and insta carry there teams. Also, I’m not talking about Yi and his win rate, I’m discussing his late game. It’s like no matter how well your team does, if he gets a triple kill at 50 mins but is so far behind, he still heavily carries his team. Being able to 3 shot even tanks is almost game-deletion worthy tbh.

AirKingNeoJun 2, 20181 votes

late game yi sucks because support and adc have outscaled his carry potential by then

Can you right click? Can you move your mouse?

Right click AWAY from the yi. Dont walk up to his face. If hes coming after you, CC him and laugh as he dies in the middle of your team.

Not that hard people.

Tryndamere having the same toxic kit , i'm so sick of this mindless champion that require no skills just 2 tanky items + rageblade + bork + crit item = death cause why not.

BLIGHTBRINGERJun 2, 20181 votes

I actually made a post about pretty much this. Where I listed down the many indirect buffs he has received that literally make him bs to play against no matter what match up.

Essence Reaver literally makes his Q cooldown 2-1 second because of Rageblade and how his Passive works together.

Your title made me burst out in laughter idk why

Ok sure but whyJun 2, 20181 votes

As an M7 Rammus main

This is OK to me

i mean... any hypercarry champ "hitting 18 full build" is going to turn the game around. if you can't end the game before then, you don't deserve the win.

ZephyrDrakeJun 3, 20181 votes

"this champion got behind but the game went so long that he managed to get to max lvl and get a full build so him being behind means nothing"... He is a melee champion that builds no defensive items whatsoever learn to deal with him.
