Back in bronze, I was a yoru main and really wanted him to be buffed BUT THIS-?!

1. Decoy (C) :
The decoy flash doesn't blind your teammates. Unlike a reyna flash, yoru flash can't be broken so you can just wide peek with the decoy. The flash also seems to last 5 seconds which is way too overpowered.

2. Teleport (E) :
Reasonable buff, a really good one indeed where you have to check an extra angle unless one of the enemies camps the tp for about 30 seconds to get a free kill while their teammates die in struggle to hold the site.

3. Ultimate (X) :
There is almost no way one can't get entry with the ult, gathering all info and flashing on enemies' faces. Yorus with a judge would be super annoying. They will just flash you twice and you won't be able to even see your death (literally). Edit - He also has a full vision in his ult (earlier it was like skye's wolf, you could only see a small radius).

TLDR :
Yoru just got buffed from 0 to 100 in a single patch.

I think the turret and nanoswarms can, the decoy doesn't seem to have high hp. But that gives a lot of info and takes out utility. Even if the decoy fails it won't matter unless your team gets flashed (which is not possible here).

it flashes on the direction where its shot from. you and your teammates can still get flashed

Neon outclasses him on Fracture still, which would probably be his best map.
On breeze and bind I guess you can make a case for him though. But even then, just play Jett and Raze respectively lol.

Also big problem on most other maps is that jett simply is more dominant. I guess running Chamber with Yoru could work fine though because then you have the awp role covered. But then again you could simply just have a Skye for more team util lol. And then again his strongest map is better with another niche duelist.

his util is just not suitable for team play
decoy? boombot is better
teleport? for repositioning yes, for entry (and gathering info while entrying) jett and raze still better
ultimate? cant ult every round

He'll work really well against kj and cypher no matter what the map

boombot don't flash, enemies only shoot it if it's in their direction.
teleport is fine
6 ult points is good for an ult, you can get it max every 5 rounds

neon is a bad agent, genuinely think that yoru might be better than her in all maps if the buffs end up being released.

His ultimate has gone from Trash to useful. He can enter into site with ult and just flash for his teammates without being killed. Plus you would also know the exact position of the enemy when entering site. The only down sight is that he may still not be viable in a single duelist meta where teams depend on utility dumping to execute a site hit. He may become a good option in ranked but in Pro Play he may be viable only on Icebox or Fracture or probably Bind.
