Only a few champions in League of Legends are as hated because the Magical Cat, Yuumi. Regardless of her recent Season 13 rework, the floating feline help nonetheless has poor win charges throughout all ranks, and she will both make or break a staff.
With the 2023 Mid-Season Invitational proper across the nook, it’s no shock Yuumi and the brand new enchanter help Milio might be disabled for the event—a transfer Riot Video games mentioned is as a result of she’s “not prepared” for professional play.
However now that she’s been suspended from League’s professional scene, no less than for the 2023 MSI, followers are calling for Riot to remove her from the game entirely.
Yuumi as a standalone champion isn’t a lot of a menace as she doesn’t deal a variety of harm, and since her rework, she depends closely on the champion with whom she has a friendship. The issue, nonetheless, is she’s untargetable whereas connected. And, when connected to a fed ADC or a champion like Grasp Yi, she will really feel very oppressive.
Some League gamers instructed Riot take a trick from this early MSI 2023 preparation and truly make separate rules to continually disable specific champions for pro play. Whereas Yuumi was the principle cause they instructed this, some gamers mentioned it might work for others too.
Nonetheless, it’s a grey space: viewers take pleasure in watching professionals play by the identical guidelines—one thing Riot has mentioned prior to now—so completely eradicating her isn’t an choice.
There have been some within the April 17 thread that instructed eradicating Yuumi from League completely, not simply banning her, perhaps the simplest choice. Others disagreed it was a be-all, end-all resolution, particularly contemplating the sport does produce other well-liked and even comparatively ‘damaged’ characters in its enormous champion roster, of which Yuumi is only one.
Riot has but to answer these League participant calls for, although it’s most unlikely they really delete any character from the sport, regardless of all of the focused hate.
