Yi is a little too easy

Valhalla Rising·Sep 10, 2015·2 votes·557 views

he's got a truckload of sustained and burst damage, including true damage which allows him to target pretty much anything he wants, and even if the player is bad they can still just pop a massive movement and attack speed roid that allows lets them to completely ignore slows, Q something for total immunity, and as a last resort pop a cd that makes him a super tank and heals a bunch.

Not much to the offense, just right click and use wuju.

Dont nerf him just add some skill to the champ got daymn.

Yi can be effective with simple right click and Q commands; however, his kit actually has a lot of nuances that puts him ahead of "simple" champions such as Katarina .

Yi's Alpha Strike can be used to dodge abilities, even ultimates, when timed right.

Mediate can be cast in a clutch to avoid serious damage, or reset Yi's AA animation so he can AA twice in quick succession.

Wuju style may seem simple, but Yi actually loses out in DPS if he has to fight after the active wears off. Yi needs to consider if he should activate it for a short burst of DPS or save it for its passive. If Yi can get resets off of High Lander, then of course this won't be a problem.

High Lander looks pretty straight forward, and it is. However, if Yi fails to get resets, he essentially screws himself over.

Yi's abilities have powerful impact, and are simple to use. But if used incorrectly, they come with serious draw backs.

Compare to Riven or Garen for example, they are mana-less and their decision flow chart is much simpler because their abilities don't punish them as heavily as Yi's do if they misuse them.

He is hard to play on a high level, dodging malzahar ult with q or shit like that. Also w is an aa reset and needs to be used for faster dps. Yi isnt as easy as bronze people think, he just works down there because people suck.

Yi's skill cap is probably the most deceptively high in the game.

Not really. There are a bunch of champions with a high skillcap, even higher than Yi. For example, Riven.

Yi is one of those champions that are easy to use, but hard to master.

You should probably read my post a little more carefully next time. There's an adverb in my post that changes its meaning from what you think it is to something else.
