Okay, but what's up with those Master Yi buffs?

Call them changes all you want, there's no real way to deny these aren't massive buffs to Master Yi. Removal of his cast times, increased attack speed, and allowing his Q to strike the same target for potentially double damage from the current iteration is a bit nuts, don't you think? Yi's not even been in a bad spot, so I don't understand why he'd receive such large buffs. Sure, he lost a bit of AD, but I really don't think that's going to hamper him with this at all...

Alpha Strike (Q): Cast time removed New effect: If Master Yi has struck less than the maximum amount of times and there are no other nearby eligible targets, he strikes the same target for 25% damage before checking again. Duration changed to 0.8 seconds from ‘variable’ Meditate (W): Cast time removed. Wuju Style (E): No longer grants AD while not on cooldown. Highlander (R): Attack speed changed to 40/50/60% from 30/55/80%.

Rageblade is being nerfed and this is compensation while also making him more skill at higher ranks
