Please Tone Down Yi

I realize they want sales of Yi's new skin but Sated devourer Yi needs to be toned down. Absolutely no counter play. went full HAM 1 vs 5 and got stunned after killing 2 still scored a quadra and walked away with his ally stealing the penta. Total bullshit right there. His passive plus sated gives him 10 hits for every 6 auto's. that's 10 crits, 10 procs of BotRK, 10 magic damage on hits from sated (30 each). Seriously how can someone at Rito think that is OK? Especially since that allows him to basically just alpha strike right after alpha strike.

I even got first blood by killing him at his blue as Tahm

Sated Xin is pretty bad as well. pretty much a 100% pick ban

Yi has the same counterplay he has always had. Sated ww.... There is a champ that lacks real counterplay. lol

yea his counterplay is to stun him. I landed 3 auto's and hit my tounge lash to proc the stun. as soon as stun wore off he healed then alpha then 2 insta kills. absolute bullshittyness

first blood doesn't really matter much ultimately. It'll give you lane advantage, but that's about it unless you exploit it, which you didn't sound like you did.
unless he has 100% crit, he's not going to crit 10 hits out of 10. Most of the damage will come from his E and BorK
like I've said before, this is ONE instance, in ONE game that you probably got outplayed in. It does not merit champion nerfs.
you have to sit down and think that Sated is what makes Yi do all of that damage. So then do you nerf the champion, or nerf sated? What makes more sense?
Riot has possible nerfs on Sated in current/upcoming PBE patches.
A couple simple counterplays would be to tell your jg to actively gank early because most sated yi's will be busy playing farm simulator for 20mins. Also people don't understand that lanes can control scuttle as well, not just the jg

Yi has been strong, but it's risky to play him, because if you fall behind, it's 4v5.
