The yuumi "nerfs" are a joke

Buffing the least interactive part of her kit while lowering the only part that requires interacting with enemies and she rises 3% in WR instantly overnight while being even more cancerous at higher elos

Remove this impossible to balance untargetable damageable mechanic from the game and make her take a portion of her anchor's damage already. She is always going to be either completley useless or broken beyond belief because her power revolves entirely around being a stat stick.

Sorry. The problem with your reasoning is this: It's OBVIOUS based on what became her prominent rune structure that in fact, what you are trying to argue is entirely FALSE.

Her Win rate completely relies on her access to her ULT. It wasn't until people began taking Presence of Mind that her performance began to improve.

When Yuumi players were relying on just "being a stat stick," her highest win rate was 42%.

Furthermore, unless you hop off and gain your shield, you literally lose about 5% win rate in performance.

Also, her entire win rate also revolves around an itemization which wouldn't even be possible if she took damage. Mejais/Death Cap rush would just be stupid if she took damage, and she needs THAT MUCH to be relevant! Other builds..... her win rate PLUMMETS.

Untargetable would be not bad. Problem is that she is undamagable by aoe as well...

At least Abathur can be ganked

Yummi's Untarget ability is part of what makes her playstyle so unique aswell as the fact they removed the opertunity to kill her by removing her mana gain from her passive. She is a squishy champ even late game she can be one hit by damn near any champ even in mid game as soon as the champ shes bound to is killed and sure yea her q can do alot of damage but at the same time if you know what your doing its easy to avoid. Sure i may be a little biased but i just dont wanna end up pretty much afking on someone that would be boring as hell.

I've asked for this kind of nerfs since people started playing her with comet. She shouldn't just go AP and kill people. Her gameplay fantasy always was a supporter. A healer. So, focusing more on E and less on Q is good.

For the untargetability... Well, that's a kit problem, not a numbers problem. A higher downtime would be a good thing to start with.
