More Master Yi nerfs?

Crossarms·Nov 11, 2016·4 votes·580 views

Can anyone explain to me why they keep nerfing Master Yi even though he is already a bad champion with a negative average win rate?

Most were indirect, some were new bugs, but some were intentional.

Edit: I'm adding this link to support my reasoning behind the jungle changes nerfing him (feel free to disagree on this link though it's just my opinion) (also feel free to comment or justify the changes) http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/B7tfOQ8e-questions-about-one-of-the-jungle-changes-grompkrugs-spawn-timers

yes, but why does it matter?

Some good items on Yi are getting buffed, namely Guinsoo's Rageblade and Blade of the Ruined King. He's getting compensation nerfs.

Have they already changed the items?

So they're not on the PBE in a list? You're talking about overall changes then?

I know nothing about the pbe but on the normal server the jungle changes indirectly nerfed him and the "bug fixes" to his kit gave him even more bugs to his alpha that are worse than the previous bugs also he no longer gets cd procs on invisible targets which nerfs the *** out of him.

Didn't they buff item 1041 ? Didn't he already handle aoe well?

I mean there are probably more pressing champions who have seen NOTHING in years besides a champion who was an extreme problem champion last season.

He clears the jungle well but the added chickens chunk his health down regardless. (his alpha won't hit them all so his "aoe" isn't that great on them) but all in all first clear isn't that bad and it gets better the more items you get.
