MASTER YI AND KATARINA NERFS

I have been playing league since season 4 and although there are a few things about the game i dont agree with, master yi and katarina. THEY HAVE NO COUNTER. During games, especially the low elo games, Yi and Kat are regularly played. any team with a master yi and/or kat will win 90% of their games. Many people online say "thats because low elo players dont know how to counter them. its very simple, just play a champ tha-" BULLSH*T. CC may be able to counter kat but according to rito, assassins are supposed to have high damage with little to no cc.

Katarina the only way around this is to play a high cc support in the mid lane and get zoned from cs anyway due to not dealing any damage, and leaving your team without a mage/assassin for the late game.

MasterYi master yi has a similar issue in the laning phase. Although master yi may be as squishy as katarina he still has that well known BS high damage and kite we have come to love. Yi has a built in zohnyas that deals damage. RIOT WHAT THE F*CK WHERE YOU SMOKING!?!?!?

Vi I play games where i am 15/8/8 at around 25-30 minutes with VI in then all of a sudden there is a 5/5/? master yi + devourer who has been farming jungle all game who just comes up and kills me with a Q and a few basics, meditates and walks away full health.

Riot all the league community is asking is for you to NERF THERE DAMAGE. you dont need to give kat mana (would still be appreciated) or make yi vulnerable during his q, just nerf the damage (base and/or scalings).

i am writing this after leaving a ga,e where i was playing syndra against a katarina. we both backed and came back to lane at level 5 with 0/0/0 with similar cs. i had bought a chalice and poked kat to half health then we hit lvl 6 shortly after. when i used Q & E (my knockback) kat pressed Q, E, R. i died instantly, even though i flashed as soon as she shunpo-ed. i died. both 0/0/0. both level 6. i got butt f*cked.

Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu Amumu

(for those of you thinking i wrote this because im salty or just because i am low elo and dont know how to counter cancer, i know 3 people whom play ranked much more than me and are in gold. they skip ranked games when they see a kat in champ select. know why? losing 3 lp is better than losing 20+ and wasting 20 minutes.)

I too have been playing the game since season 4 and I find Katarina and Master Yi pretty easy to counter.

Nice repost of the same crap you just got downvoted on. Learn to use CC and focus on priority targets like Kat and Yi and move on.

lol Rage much XD while its almost impossible to shut down a fed yi its also very possible to shut him down all you need is TEAMWORK and FOCUS with a little cc on the side XD its not hard -.- stop complaing don't you know that all the 450 IP champions are annoying and op well maybe not soraka. anyway kata and yi arent hard to shut down

If only you would have been smart enough and save your E as syndra for Kata ult, we wouldn't have to read this right now....

Those champions are fine.

While you probably don't want advice from a cardboard 69 player but I will at least try to give you more than the usual "Use Your CC! Herp Derp"

MasterYi and pretty much everyone in the devourer meta is countered by Teemo and Quinn because blind stops almost all auto attack damage including most of the on-hit effects.

For Katarina I would use Malzahar and Chogath

While Malzahar just ult when she ults. Also it's a good "HEY TEAM, FOCUS DIS MUDAFUKA" tool.

With Chogath use your q+w when she jumps on you or your teammates, from there you can focus on her or retreat depending on the situation.

That's my theory on it anyway, take it for what you will.

Yi's a little over the top once he gets Sated Devourer but a lot of champs tend to be. But in that case they should nerf the item and not the champ if there's a problem.
