Yuumi nerf isn't enough imo

Mostly a yuumi main here, but I don't think this nerf to q will do much at all. The decrease on the slow is good though.

Always thought yuumi's r needed a bit of an increase towards cooldown.

Not sure but, worried the nerfs will just keep coming until it's another galio.

Just want to be able to play my main in ranked or draft in the near future without her being banned 87% of the time! Also don't want her to be nerfed until useless though. While I think the slow reduction to q is a good start, it's not good enough still. Her late game will still be very good.

She's totally going to get Galio'd. Her kit just isn't healthy. Low winrate, but high banrate. She's like Darius, she's balanced, but just a miserable experience to play against, and unlike Yasuo or Riven takes next to no skill to play. And unlike Darius she scales hard, and doesn't rely on doing well early...

Her best chance is some kind of W overhaul, probably making the CD start upon exiting the champion, but decreasing it to like 5/2/0. Maybe nerfing her heal early so she struggles more in lane phase.

Yuumi is a perfectly balanced champ, because it can be countered. Just git gud, and stop crying.

I feel Yuumi walks a thin line between being super cancerous to play against and being useless if she was nerfed too much, so they probably won't nerf her any more than whats on pbe right now.

yummi gonna be like old soraka, it doesnt really matter what you do since she can just heal her adc, a passive playing adc wont in danger any poke gets negated by yummi, if they nerf her healing and focus on her poke the fact that she offers poor counterplay due her W still leave issues, she is like sona except that if you catch sona she explode into pieces with her poor defense. yummi might never be balance in pro play and will be one of those champions that are too strong for pro play but to terrible in solo queue riot will rather make ppl forget about them like kalista and azir

offered solutions:

make her W have a real colddown early on. leave her heals strong but make it so she can only gain more than one charge while not attach. this means she wont be attach at all times early on now to fix her late game we need more reasons for yummi to not be attach, her passive is a great idea, the mana recover was only relevant early honestly, we need something yummi cant afford not to do late game to force her out of the attachment kinda how soraka needs to land her Q to recover her own HP oppose to old soraka that would just spam W as needed, her ult is not bad at all but the fact you cant stop her and she isnt vulnerable while using it is a bit too much

Her problem is and always has been her poke, she is lterally fucking building ludens and comet as a champion that is supposed to be an enchanter.

Honestly I think a good way to tune her down a bit would be to slightly reduce the speed she moves when jumping between allies, to allow more time to interrupt it with cc. This let's her keep her power level while attached, while giving the enemy team a bit more counter play during skirmishes.

I already permaban yuumi, and fully agree that the nerfs won't be enough. They're more love taps than anything, and I'm sure riot knows that.
