Concept: A slight QOL buff for Master Yi against Stealth Champions

Master Yi is really struggling against stealth champions. It's sorta ironic too because of his lore and whatnot. I have a slight buff proposal that would really help him in small skirmishes after level 6 that won't really effect him in bronze or silver (imho).

While channeling meditate AND highlander together, Yi gains true sight equal to his normal sight range

What happens right now is since his last highlander nerf that reduced it's base duration to 7 seconds is that when a champion activates stealth right after Yi pops highlander, nearly half of his ult duration is burned before he even has any chance to engage them. With this slight QOL buff, he will A., have incentive to hold meditate, pausing the duration of his highlander, and B., give him a tiny window to pop alpha strike on the target if they are close enough.

Keep in mind, he immediately loses his true sight upon leaving meditate/highlander so he can't auto-attack the target until they leave stealth. So this buff is simply giving him the proper re-positioning tool he desperately needs to reengage the stealth champion successfully. Also, nobody on his team receives the true sight, so they can't attack the target either. This buff is SIMPLY to give Yi a little more breathing room against stealthed targets.

Thoughts?

This is not QOL, therefore I downvote this post.

It would only be arguably QoL if only Yi can see them and not his allies. Usually "true sight" is shared so it needs to be specified that it's Yi only. Even then it's arguably too strong to be considered QoL. Still, it sounds like a decent idea.
