Phreak about upcoming support and Radiant Virtue changes:
RiotPhroxzon about the Yuumi’s current position and the coming rework:
Early reads on Yuumi are that she sustained ~3% nerf at average play and 5% at high until the rework.

Post rework, we still intend to balance Yuumi by our Balance Framework guidelines, where we hope her best bracket will be average/skilled play and weaker for Elite/Pro
We still think we can hit the goal of Yuumi having a decent amount of mastery for her mains while simultaneously being excellent for new players [these don't tend to be mutually exclusive]. True new players play very differently to say, a silver player who has 3000 games
— Matt Leung-Harrison (@RiotPhroxzon) January 28, 2023
We still want to respect the mastery and investment that Yuumi players have put into their champion, but move the mastery out of things that Pros specifically do better than regular players.
— Matt Leung-Harrison (@RiotPhroxzon) January 28, 2023
Our suspicion is that Yuumi will perform closer to 50% for average, but <50% for Elite
We don't expect Yuumi's steep-ish mastery curve to change much, but we do expect the ways in which that mastery manifests to be different but still resonant with Yuumi mains
— Matt Leung-Harrison (@RiotPhroxzon) January 28, 2023
We mainly want to change how her mastery manifests in Pro that is making her overperform in that bracket
