Taric and Master Yi Funneling Needs to be Removed

Taric mid is currently the highest winrate mid laner with a whopping 64% winrate. Players that would normally be stuck in mid plat or low diamond are now getting to high diamond and master abusing this strategy. This combination has been an issue for a long time now and it hasn't gone away despite repeat efforts from Riot. Here is what I propose:

Master Yi is just overtuned in general. He needs a nerf to his E damage, it's ridiculous how much true damage he does. Alternatively you could nerf his base armor or base attack speed. His clear is too healthy, and one of the only ways to counter funneling is by invading Yi.

Taric's ult duration should be changed to 2 seconds, and as compensation he receives better numbers across his other abilities.

The fact Taric is almost always part of a non-meta cheese scheme tells me that something is wrong with the champ.

I disagree. I say keep this strategy and let other people find the counters to that.

For one fucking season let's try to not gut anything that isn't the stereotypical 112+jg. And see how it goes.

Cause for 10 damn years we are in the same damn meta.

Who knows, maybe laneswaping your botlane to mid and permashove the taric is the answer. Or simply sending your support mid to perma harass him. Just let this be for a couple months and see what solution comes about.

Or simply ban one or the other

Only reason Taric is part of funnel is because of his ultimate.

This strategy have a lot of counter. AoE CC, ground effect, Morde ult and so on.

Gold funneling as a tactic needs removed.
