I thought that 
is AP counterpart for 
, but she gets rework to be better but Yi dont.
If Master Yi is not an assassin, neither tank, bruiser or junggernaut, then what is he then? Dumpster Diver? Cause thats what he was doing since 3 seassons.

Sahn Uzal3 votesUnlike Assassins, Skirmishers aim to shred through any nearby enemy that approaches. Because Skirmishers lack high-end burst damage or reliable ways of closing in on high-priority targets, they are instead armed with situationally powerful defensive tools to survive in the fray, along with extreme sustained damage to cut down even the most durable targets.
Both fit this description quite well imo.

Wait what?

He's reliant on knockups (A regular Glass cannon-Skirmisher Yasuo won't be able to walk up and press E on someone, let's be fair.)

Alpha Strike and Meditate.
Spicy Rice1 votesI mean, yasuo has often been called yi 2.0
D357R0Y3R3 votesa class that was left by riot a long time ago
a melee carry
a melee version of an adc.
Goosetard2 votesI wish they'd given up before they made

their last melee ad carry was technically fioras gameplay update.
and imo yasuo is the perfect example of how a melee adc should look like. hes really really well designed.
D357R0Y3R1 votesin the perspective of if yasuo is able to do his job, yes he is well designed
however people hate yasuo despite the well design because they find him unfair to play against.
the reason yasuo can work as a melee carry is because he brings utility like gangplank.

people lose their shit, because hes a champion who specifically counters ranged champions. it was the same with morde on bot lane.
melee champions usually have a disproprtionate disadvantage when fighting ranged champions and getting kited with a ton of damage. a lot of ranged champions in the game actually hardcounter certain melee champions.
now when the situation is suddenly reversed, and there is a melee champion who has an advantage specifically towards ranged champions, those players feel cheated.
Jbels2 votesHe's not really an assassin, the way he builds just lets him feel like one. Crit does that.
HorusEye1 votesHe's an "eh" version of Yasuo.
Requiemsfire1 votesMaster yi isn't much of an assassin tbh, he has tools to gap close onto one person but his kit doesn't encourage execution rather he just presses R and hacks at any whoever he can reach before being blown up himself.
Sona Ping1 votesHe's a melee AD carry.
Sukishoo1 votesThey don't need to update every champion when they do a class update...
