She’s super popular, super fun to play, and is seeing play at all skill brackets.

I definitely think she needs some fine tuning – she somehow STILL has a 52/53% winrate in low/mid elo despite REPEATED nerfs patch after patch – but unlike champs like Zeri or K’Sante I don’t think she’s inherently unbalanceable.

She’s had a positive effect on the jungle meta, and obtained a bunch of new OTPs. To me at least, she’s a highlight of 2023, which otherwise had the very forgettable Milio and Naafiri, the latter of which is actively OP at low elo and yet hardly anyone plays her (3% pickrate in silver/gold even with a 54% winrate last patch).

Is she the most positive champion release since Renata?

    Yuumi had one of the lowest win rate on release too lmao are you arguing yuumi is a skillful champion?

    Yes actually, we saw irrefutable proof of that. At least before her rework, there was an unusually strong correlation between a Yuumi player’s winrate, and how many games the player practiced her. Her dominance in pro play while she had 45% winrate in soloqueue was further proof of that. You’d see pro players win trades, tank 99% of their own health bar, and reattach safely without ever allowing CC to touch them.

    Any redditor still debating this needs to log off.
