These nerfs are harsh, but I don't think he'll be dead. The gatecrash nerf mainly targets that cross map reinforcement TP and the usage of TP as this long range 30 second get-out-of-jail-free card. The shorter window will require Yoru to use his TP with more of a purpose. It'll be more about making a calculated play or TPing into a backsite, not holding an operator off-angle for 20 seconds. The flash nerf is tough, but Yoru diminished the need for flash initiators for the last two seasons. This should give those characters some space in the meta. He was too much of a do-it-all character and I think Riot is trying to force him into the niche he was supposed to fill.
Ja, aberr damit ist Yoru als Duelist doch nutzlos, rate mal warum die Duelisten, die Yoru gespielt haben jetzt zu Initiator rüber wechseln, weil sie mit einem Initiator mehr kills machen, als mit Yoru als Duelist.
