Terrify and Master Yi's ultimate Interaction

Others have probably already noticed this, but in a game I was just in, during Master Yi's ultimate, Yi runs just as fast in the opposite direction due to the immunity to move speed/attack speed slows. Obviously, this is a proper interaction on paper, but I was curious if this was something which had been thought of and if there are other immunity/tenacity interactions which were perhaps not taken into account with the switch.

This is actually hilarious, and, while I don't want them to make a Terrify exception while simultaneously nerfing Yi, this should be fixed.

I've seen this happen when I was Yi, and tbh, it made it more frustrating for me because I was trying to stick to the champion to kill them. Terrify made me end up WAY farther than I would normally have if it actually slowed as it was supposed to.

Now if a Fiddle was trying to use it to catch the ulted Yi, it would save Yi's life. Not sure if that is what is intended.

This sounds kind of funny--like Yi just turns tail and runs like a scaredy cat or something--but yeah, not sure if they intended that. Seems problematic, I mean a fear is not really just a slow. It's more a disable than anything else, like a silence or polymorph. The slow helps too, but it's obviously more than just that.

What if Fear just temporarily freezes buffs?

Disables them but doesn't continue their countdown until it wears off.
