Analysis
Review
Lee Yumi was (keyword, was) one of the best SSR Defenders in the game. Among many Defenders, she is one of the few who rely on EVA to tank, which comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages.
Yumi's advantages come with her costing only 3, and her self-buff, which massively buffs her survivability for 20 seconds on deployment. A similar buff is cast on her ult, which lasts 15 seconds. However, these buffs still rely on evasion - meaning it is all down to the odds often times if she lives or not. Also, she might not live to ult, especially in PVP.
The bigger concern about Yumi, however, is that she does not do much aside from tanking. Yes, she will stay alive and draw out attacks, but other than that she does not do anything while other tanks like Serapel, Chifuyu, and Awakened Na Yubin provide damage and team protection, debuff and stun, and terminal-illness-to-towers-and-barriers, respectively.
She's also directly powercrept by newer 3 cost Defenders, such as Rearmed Alex.
Despite all that, her low cost and decent tankiness still makes her a good unit for new players, especially in PVE.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- evasion allows her to ignore CC and CRIT,
- low cost makes her fit in a variety of teams in PVP and PVE.
Cons
- Snipers counter her easily,
- any debuff that lowers EVA will make her die really fast.
