Yi requires minimal braincells for operation

Anyone who disagrees is a troll. He's seriously like the champion that is included in this game if you can't manage to find functionality with any champ that even requires one window lick above being absolutely brainless.

Like his system requirements are based on Windows 95 Systems and 56k modems.

I really wish Rito would do a roundup of these champs that depend so heavily on NOT having skillshots and rework them all so there would be some semblance of balance with these 'press * to win' strategies.

Just here to applaud Rito for finding some illusion of a balanced game when you have champions running around with no resource pools to manage besides cool downs and some champs who have skills that mask their controllers lack of skill by doing most of the work for them.

Yeah, the primary mud sling was directed at Yi but there's too many champions that have skills that track like heat seeking missiles through flashes and dodging when there's no reason why they shouldn't be skill shots.

If you can't handle fighting Yi, you probably deserve to lose

Try playing Yi in any elo where players even have two braincells. It becomes a huge challenge. He's honestly harder than a lot of junglers (don't fucking shoot me for saying this until you let the thought sit in your mind for a few minutes) because his strengths and weaknesses are so clear. He's the opposite of a generalist, and his early game isn't great, so not falling behind/losing pressure/macro is much more important. Try playing him against a meta jungler like lee or graves. Difficult.

The thing I don't understand is why you think he's so mechanically easy. Honestly speaking, he's harder than half the roster. Timing q to outplay people takes practice, and Autoattack resetting with meditate isn't braindead easy. He's SIMPLE, but that does not make him easy.

You just sound salty for losing to a master yi. XinZhao just involves clicking on your opponent and mashing your keyboard. There are actually a lot of melees that are less skill based than Yi because you often need to q to avoid hard cc or hold onto it to so you can follow someones mobility spell.

The only reason this gets down voted is because people don't want to lose the trollish aspect to this game and they like that it's horribly unbalanced and favoring to certain champions that require less than one brain cell for normal mechanical operation.
