Yuumi is braindead and overpowered.

I just played her for the very first time.

Won with a score of 4/5/31.

She is absolutely OP. No skill needed. Very safe. Her ult is insane. I escaped so many deaths simply by hopping on to someone else. This champ is a joke.

Ah, yes, the classic "I played one game so I'm an expert on the champ and know how easy they are".

A sample size of 1 is irrelevant for anything beyond proving that it's possible for something to happen. Congratulations you proved it's possible to do well on Yuumi. That means absolutely fuck all in terms of balance.

I saw her being extremely OP as the enemy many times, so i tried her myself.

She is OP.

Just because you dont die doesnt mean you were useful.

Yuumi is very easy to deal with if you can kill the adc early, given yuumi is very, very bad at keeping someone safe and alive themselves unless they can live for ~3s on their own.

Yuumis strength is mid/late game, so shutting her down early before she can ditch the adc really hurts her.

Meanwhile commentors on esports always point out her strong poke during the laning phase as a huge strength. Since she can curve her Q, she can hit it easily and it became the standard strategy to deal with that by getting a dedicated meatshield support with either spammable shields or heals to stand in front of the ADC and eat her Q willingly. It is really really hard to avoid alltogether, unlike other skillshots, at least in trained and coordinated teams.

I think it would actually be reasonable to increase the turn radius of the skill a bit to make it easier to dodge.

Sure, her Q is good poke.... But its CD is too high to be nearly as good as other poke champs on its own, and can be dodged fairly easily if you dont have lane dominance. Its also really bad if the enemy is right ontop of you, as youre now trying to explicitly not hit the target for a few seconds.

Her poke really comes in mid game or if you can maintain lane dominance til level 8 ish.
