Master Yi

So is Yi ever going to get a change? I don't know what needs to change, but the fact is he is an unstoppable force that cc hardly even can stop.

You can shut him down all match, but the fact is, end game he will win no matter what, by either split pushing, or getting the easiest flash over the wall Q penta in the entire game.

This champion is not fair in any way shape or form, and you don't always get to ban him, no matter how much you beg your team to ban him, they never do "who plays yi" is the response, but then guess whaaaaaaat?! YI! and they win because of him.

He is the most point and click champion in the game, Q auto PENTAKILL, if your team doesn't have enough ranged cc then you can't win. Not to mention you can't cc him when he Q's, the issue is he kills people just with his Q, so half your team dies before the opportunity TO stun him even EVER ARRIVES.

I'm not saying nerf his damage output, in fact, i would rather his Q range be nerfed, just the range of it. That would give a better window of opportunity to stun him successfully especially if you do not have ranged stuns to single him out.

Or it could be sated, or freaking rageblade! Something needs to change, because Yi is unstoppable if he doesn't get banned or magically stunned before he can Q.

Let's not even talk about how he can solo dragon and baron by himself.

they're changing his E ratio to be bonus AD only on PBE (instead of total AD). should weaken him if he itemises full tank

I bet if Master Yi was given skillshots he actually had to land people would stop using him. Why is he picked? Because he's an OP low skillcap champ. That seems to be the top tier of the meta in season 6. Top junglers are Yi, Shyvana, Udyr and Xin Zhao, I don't think any of them have a single skillshot. Coincidence? I doubt it. Any of these champs, especially Yi, can plow through a team and/or get pentakills without even landing a single skillshot.

Edit: Shyvana has one skillshot but it doesn't count, no mana cost, easy to land, goes through minions...etc.

One of the problems I experienced while playing against this certain champ as an ADC was that (since my supp INSISTED on taking heal, i went for exhaust) you can't exhaust yi and it was rather a waste of the summoner spell. I know he can't be slowed but make it so he can at least be cced by hard cc or something. If your team has little to no peel on your team (as an adc); Yi will stick to you like glue unless you can kill him quickly enough.

The other effects of exhaust (damage and resistances reduction) still go through

In my opinion; unless your team can get to you fast enough it's all over for you as an adc (unless you can output enough dmg somehow) and the exhaust is sort of wasted. I've always seen exhaust as a way of peeling but maybe it's just me. //cough cough guinsoos and sated devourer cough cough//
