1% pick rate so far in Champions, sub 5% pick rate in Ranked across all ranks (according to Valking) and a sub 47% win rate for that amount of pick rate. What's wrong with Yoru? Didn't he receive a huge rework earlier this year? How do you think he can break into the meta? I have so many questions. But imo he's just gonna be that one character nobody plays and is pretty much gonna be the worst until the end of time...

A good yoru is arguably the scariest thing to play against because of the sheer amount of plays u can run with it. Sadly yoru is also the most difficult agent to learn and play at a top tier level since it requires a lot of support in order to tp in and stuff, similar to neon with her running and sliding. Respek to forsaken for actually introducing it and making it look viable
kugukuk [#2]He is a hard agent to play well
yoru is an easy agent to play for pros. i think its just hard to make it work on team play
in pro play, yoru needs to be combod and set up with other agents, he isnt self sufficient enough but if done well (like prx) it’s really good because opponents arent used to playing against it, tho eventually it will get figured out. in ranked, i think it’s only viable for nerds who can make the most big brain plays.
Not really, the tragedy with yoru started from his kit being bad when he was added to the game. Teams tried yoru of the past, failed and found success with other agents. Now with changes to yoru, many teams don't find the same success as they do with other agents plus people got really good at the game so to reproduce that in highly competitive matches takes time plus a lot of hours on yoru which not a lot of people have done.
In short, other agents perform better plus not many players have the ability to break out of protocols and set plays to make yoru work in pro play.

yeah, imo whats important on yoru is mindset and trust that you can get them, let others trade and put pressure on them as they think that you are aggresive
MiguelArtz [#9]switch tp time with chamber and he will be a top pick
That's the only thing that will make his pick rate even reach 10% lmao

Well the thing is, Neon is actually a traditional entry fragging duelist who is relatively easier to play than Yoru. Unlike Yoru, Neon makes room for trades and doesn't reposition at an instant like Yoru, which makes getting value out of her easier. Yoru relies on mind games which, after a certain point, stop working. Hence why Yoru doesn't have long term success in pro games, and teams only play Yoru like, once every 25 games just to try out some new strats to throw the enemy off. But if you look at it, teams have started to learn more about how Yoru works and how teams such as PRX use Yoru and form strats around him. Hence he can easily be countered unlike some other duelists.

He's a good agent now but needs too much support to play in pro play
- His flashes are eaasily dodge able
- TP can be broken and its very risky if you're TPing backsite as anything can happen
- Clone is only for trolling lol
- Single/ No duelist meta and Neon/Raze Util >>>>>>>> Yoru Util
Also Reyna>>>yoru still. People act like omg reyna no kill, no util, yoru has ult, flash and fake so useful and all. But in terms of actual pugs, a decent reyna player brings a lot of value to the team. Being a good lurking reyna is way easier than being a good yoru. Yoru is soo hit or miss. Also i feel like reynas blind is very underrated by everyone. Unless you have a have time to get into cover, trying to destroy reyna blind is almost instant death for example, in Haven A you can break the blind from cover, but when you blinded from an off angle or the middle of B for example, trying destroy the blind will net the enemy reyna a lot of time to peek and kill you. So its not always aimlabs practice destroying a reyna blind.
