Riot Games has introduced the new update 13.1b for League of Legends: There are many balance changes, buffs and nerfs. But League of Legends players have one theme above all: Yuumi. The nasty pussy cat apparently meowed for the last time. Everyone agrees: The patch brings some of the most severe nerfs in LoL history. A Riot employee says: Yuumi should become unplayable for professionals. You’re working on a rework.
What’s the deal with Yuumi?
One of Europe’s best players wants LoL to scrap a champ entirely: “It’s so gross”
Pros are demanding that Riot Games simply delete the champ Yuumi
How was Yuumi seen? Yuumi has long been the absolute hate object of some professional players in LoL, who have repeatedly demanded that the heroine should be completely deleted from League of Legends. There was nothing left to save. They just have to go.
This is the nerf now: It’s not just one nerf, there are actually 8. Riot Games says: They’ve “continued the previous nerfs a bit”; but the numbers look really bad for Yuumi.
With the core values:
On the passive, attack range now increases by 25 for that attack only.
Shield strength drops from 60-380 to 45-300
Yuumi’s W is also nerfed, going from 12-20 (+12-20% of bonus) down to 12-20 (+6-10% of bonus).
At E, movement speed drops from 20% (+2% per 100 ability power) to 20% (Without scaling with skill power).
“They Killed Yuumi”
How is the nerf discussed? The Yuumi nerf in particular is discussed in the patch notes on reddit.
People say:
Riot says. Yuumi is supposed to disappear from the pro game altogether
Ds says Riot: RiotAxes also joins the discussion, briefly explaining how to see the heroine Yuumi in Riot.
Yuumi is too strong in the game as a professional and heroes who are too strong there are just nerfed. However, it is said that they are working on a rework of Yuumi. Then you could let them off the hook again.
You’ve been doctoring Yuumi for 18 months now and it didn’t work. It just became a bigger and bigger problem in the pros’ game and became weaker and weaker for normal players:
With the current patch, they want to take Yuumi out of the professional game completely, which will make her difficult in the solo queue for a while.
No one wanted to play the least popular champ in LoL history, even if he won every match
How to do it for Yuumi: RiotAxes says they’re working on an update that should bring them back to solo play, but not pro play.
In a future version, Yuumi is said to be more dependent on her ADC partner, so she can’t just leave him later in the game.
However, no timetable for the update can be released yet.
