Conqueror yi, unbalanced

Hello, Yi now is even more unbalanced than before, the arrival of the new keyrunes conqueror. Yi is doing so good whenever is in jg clear or ganking, and does a lot damage than he shouldn't, and we don't have much counter-play against that.

Lets forget about the damage first. Yi's abilities are too strong right now. First, his Q is way too good to dodge any skillshot specially CCs and is a so damn good to run down their backline and start killing him. Second, yi taking bork is already giving him %hp damage, and now with E those autos are "2 by 3" and dealing true damage. Lastly his R, slow-immunity ehh, yeah so none of the adcs can kite him, he can just go in freely, proc that bork to get more ms, dodge the early cc with his Q and start killing the backline. LIKE OK GGWP [zombie-brand-mindblown]

Not gonna deny, there are champions that counters him, such as malzahar, lissandra or leona. But we don't have people who plays those champs in every game, PLUS it is obvious to take qss , and is the same sh*t again.

OHH i forgot to talk about conqueror on Yi, nvm every one knows his damage with that rune.

makes sense since he is still one of the worst champions you could ever pick in elo above or in platinum

yi might be shit at plat and above, but dealing around 400 true dmg per aa is still extremeley unhealthy because you basically cant build against it.

Squish Any ranged champion not played by a brain-dead summoner: "Huh? where'd the enemy Jungler go?" He is still pretty unbalanced though as well as warwick

It's so tilting to play against Yi. You don't have hard cc? Bye, game is lost

This boils down to yi not being overpowered or unbalanced but rather people in your MMR range not understanding how to counter pick for him, keep him down early game, position in team fights ect ect.

Basically it boils down to lack of skill and understand of how to counter him not him being unbalanced.

conqueror on a gank is not strong take seconds to kick in enough time for u to cc and run away.

As a jungler that has a somewhat diverse kit, Yi can be strong if you charge conqueror before a fight, or in jungle fights with other champs (charge before engage). But overall, Warwick for example is much more conducive to winning. Yi has a lot of counters, I usually pick Warwick when I'm first pick because it's not particularly easy to hard counter him (or jax).

That said, you forgot item 3124 but I'm assuming you also don't play MasterYi
