Here's a Master Yi pentakill I got 6 months ago.

Every item I used in that clip with the possible exception of berserker's greaves has been nerfed. Titanic Hydra had its ad cut by 15, Maw Shield and MR was cut as well as stacking with Sterak's, and the jungle item was reworked to be much worse on him, as was Guinsoo's. He also received nerfs to his R, in which the duration was reduced by 3 seconds (probably the most damning nerf on this list) as well as his E being nerfed.

I don't expect any form of objectivity (I know you all hate Master Yi), I'd just like to point out the nerfs Yi has received since this video was taken. Keep in mind I haven't listed all the direct and indirect nerfs he has received, JUST the ones that apply to this video. He sits at a 47% winrate and is one of the worst junglers in the game in my experience because of his low early pressure and relatively poor reward for it. I don't want him to get back to this point, I just want him to be more useful and viable in higher elo SoloQ. If someone could look at the nerfs to his ultimate in particular that would be great. I've seen tons of complaints on these boards about champions and their itemization being nerfed simultaeously, so even though you may dislike him some consideration would be much appreciated.

Congratulations. You pressed Q and got a penta.

Shyvana is in a way worse spot than yi fyi.
