Probably the last thing I'll say about this because it'll linger on for all the wrong reasons but I think it deserves correcting: Malphite is a very very strong laner, not a weak one. No idea how they play him in lower ELOs, but he's one of the safest lanes you can choose because of his flexibility. He can avoid dying to super harassing jerks like Pantheon, Wukong, and Renekton, he can out CS the sustain tops like Vlad, his all in at level 6 is huge if you've been poking your opponent, etc. That's why he's got a high win percentage against Jax, Gnar, Pantheon, J4, Renekton, Fiora, Riven, and Akali.
He also has very few counterpicks. Top of my head: Rumble and Cho'gath both do really well against Malphite.
Need help?

im not going to take the time to type up a long post
im just going to say you're wrong and yi isn't that good. all it takes is 2 eyes to see when yi dives ur backline

Sorry, yes, when I say strong laner I mean he's not going to get solo kills. He is a very safe pick, but I wouldn't call him a lane bully or anything by any means. I guess I was using strong more like a lane bully.

You could say that about every champion. Zed isn't that good, it takes two eyes to see when he ults and just cc him. It's easy. Kog'maw isn't good, he has no mobility and you can just assassinate him.
I think (near) every champ at this point is viable in solo queue (except for maybe (maybe) in challenger). You can make points for or against anybody.
Yi is no different. He can be strong, if played well. He can look overwhelmingly weak.

Wow, I had a Karthus who only played him since Xiaoweixiao did. You can guess how the game ended.

zed IS good, he does MORE damage than yi, he can dive the whole team AND THEN get out. he also has the same splitpush as yi.
kogmaw isn't BAD, there are BETTER champions now
yi on the other hand takes 30 minutes of farming to ult and dive a backline with no health and die, every champ is viable obviously, there are better ones to pick
i stop posting here again i dont understand u guys
