Lore
- Biography
- Story
| A magical cat from Bandle City, Yuumi was once the familiar of a yordle enchantress, Norra. When her master mysteriously disappeared, Yuumi became the Keeper of Norra’s sentient Book of Thresholds, traveling through portals in its pages to search for her. Yearning for affection, Yuumi seeks friendly companions to partner with on her journey, protecting them with luminous shields and fierce resolve. While Book strives to keep her on task, Yuumi is often drawn to worldly comforts, such as naps and fish. In the end, however, she always returns to her quest to find her friend.
In the outlands of Bandle City, there was once a wooded glen where the moon-moths glimmered and the riverbanks overflowed with rainbowfish. In a cottage nestled between the verdant trees lived a yordle enchantress named Norra, with her cat, Yuumi. Born with magical powers of protection, Yuumi enjoyed a life of leisure for many years, pouncing on sunbeams and napping beneath the mouse-trees. Whenever adventure sparked her interest, she joined Norra on explorations across the material and spirit realms. Norra spent her time collecting strange objects like broken cups, shards of colored glass, and fabric with funny stitching. She examined each artifact with deep reverence, though Yuumi never understood their purpose. Nevertheless, Yuumi would use her magic to protect Norra from harm, and would warm her feet when they returned home. The doorways between realms are finicky and seldom open, even to creatures as dexterous as cats. Yuumi watched as other yordles waited for days for the eastern star to align with a particular stone archway, or waded impatiently between marsh-lilies, seeking a silver blossom blooming from the mud—only then would a pathway appear. But Yuumi’s yordle, Norra, possessed the powerful Book of Thresholds, which allowed her to instantly travel anywhere depicted in its pages. When Norra opened a portal, she and Yuumi would gleefully dive into its glowing paper and arrive at their destination, joined a moment later by the book. Yuumi never paid the book much attention until one starless night, when she returned home from luring moon-moths with her shinylight to find Norra missing. She saw the book on her master’s desk and flipped through its pages in a panic, noticing that some were torn out entirely. Unable to read its title, Yuumi cried out to it in distress, calling it, simply, “Book”. In response, the book wiggled, and Yuumi was surprised to learn she could understand thoughts amidst the rustling paper. Despite not having a voice, Book made itself loud and clear. Yuumi learned that Norra had gone somewhere so perilous, she had destroyed the portal as she traveled. Yuumi knew she had to rescue Norra, and turned to Book for help. Each of its thousand pages led to a different location along the lines of magic that crossed the material and spirit realms. The page Norra had used to travel was lost, but Book might be able to get them close. Yuumi and Book would have to explore every possible threshold. She became Book’s unlikely Keeper, vowing to protect it with the courage of a lion—if it fell into the wrong hands, the doorways to Bandle City could open to all kinds of unsavory and ravenous intruders. Yuumi and Book began their arduous journey, visiting dangerous and unfamiliar lands. Yuumi sought Norra’s scent on the wind, to little avail. While Yuumi would sometimes break from their search to follow the scent of a mouse or restore her strength with a quick catnap, Book was frustratingly cautious, grumpy over lost time and nervous about threats they might encounter. Nevertheless, Yuumi and Book were both determined to find their master and bring her home. When Yuumi especially missed Norra, she often sought out other companions. One of her favorites was a door-carrying shepherd with thick whiskers and a deep laugh like a babbling brook. Yuumi rested on his shoulders for a time, protecting him from angry snow-spirits stirring up flurries in a hailstorm, while he brought her wriggling fish. Eventually, Yuumi uncovered the scent of her master lingering in a vast Shuriman ruin. Digging deep into the sand, she unearthed a broken shard of blue pottery that looked like a piece from one of Norra’s teapots. Before she could burrow further, a ferocious beast surfaced from the sand, and Yuumi and Book barely escaped. She could only imagine the chaos if a creature like that ripped its claws into Book’s pages. Though unlikely companions, Yuumi and Book have become fast friends, united by their love for Norra. Yuumi continues to search everywhere for signs of her master, so she can someday return to her life of napping in the sun by Norra’s side. | |

Patch History
Q base damage and empowered damage increased. W ally icon bugfix.
It appears that the bot lane is full of dog people because Yuumi’s been a less ideal partner for marksman champions due to her more passive presence. To coax her back as a more active participant in lane, we’re giving her some damage from the outset so that her Q feels more like poke than a pat.
Q - Prowling Projectile
W - You and Me!
Patch 10.15
Passive mana restore value decreased; now scales with maximum mana and champion level; cooldown decreased.
Yuumi was mush, mushed! by her E mana cost nerf in 10.13, so we’re here to follow up (and give her all the chin scratches in the process). As we mentioned in this article, we’re making her passive more important to her success in a way where she’ll need to take more risks if she wants to provide more sustain.
Passive - Bop 'n' Block
| MANA RESTORE : | [50-160 (levels 1-18)] | |
| ⇒ | 25-100 (+8% maximum mana) (levels 1-18) |
| COOLDOWN : | [20-8 seconds (levels 1-18)] | |
| ⇒ | 18-6 seconds (levels 1-18) |
Patch 10.13
E cost increased.
We have nothing but love for felines here, but this cat’s E costs are currently too easily solved with systemic mana increases. We’re afraid this chapter needs to be shut.
E - Zoomies
| COST : | [100/115/130/145/160] | |
| ⇒ | 40/45/50/55/60 (+15% max mana) |
| PROWLING PROJECTILE EMPOWERED DAMAGE : | [45/80/115/150/185/220] | |
| ⇒ | 45/85/125/165/205/245 |
Q empowered damage decreased and now considers target's health; cost now flat. W no longer goes on cooldown from Silences. E base heal decreased, but ratio increased.
No longer just a healbot (cats can't be trained to heel anyways). Her Q should be more worthwhile to cast even in the mid-late game.
Q - Prowling Projectile
| EMPOWERED DAMAGE : | [50/95/140/185/230/275 (+0.4 AP)] | |
| ⇒ | 45/80/115/150/185/220 (+0.4 AP) (+0.02-0.08 of target's current health) |
| COST : | [85/90/95/100/105/110] | |
| ⇒ | 90 mana at all ranks |
W - You and Me!
E - Zoomies
| HEAL : | [70/110/150/190/230 (+0.3 AP)] | |
| ⇒ | 70/94/118/142/166/190 (+0.4 AP) |
Passive restores mana once again. Q cost increased, damage decreased. Yuumi no longer teleports with her Anchor. E now grants attack speed, no longer stocks charges, and costs much more mana.
We're encouraging Yuumi to be the enchanter she was meant to be by buffing her supportive capabilities at the cost of damage (and that means Summon: Aery is a lot more optimal on her, not Arcane Comet). However, to access all her power, she'll have to sit on squishier champions instead of being an untargetable damage source on top of an already unkillable champion, like Garen. We're also asking her to sometimes expose herself to real danger by allowing attentive opponents to have actual kill threat on an unattached Yuumi. And seriously, we have the data. Yuumi is a really weird case where taking the wrong rune is negatively and drastically causing people to think she is worse than she actually is. Please take Aery instead of Comet!
Passive - Bop 'n' Block
| BASE SHIELD : | [50-300 (levels 1-18)] | |
| ⇒ | 60-400 (levels 1-18) |

| ⇒ | 85/90/95/100/105/110 |

| MOVEMENT SPEED : | [25%, decays over time] | |
| ⇒ | 15%, no longer decays over time |
W - You and Me!
Patch 9.19
Q slow strength now flattened, duration decreased, no longer decays over time.
Yuumi has been a fuzzy menace in the pro scene, so we're nerfing one of the more pro-impacting elements of her kit.
Q - Prowling Projectile
Patch 9.16
Q empowered damage decreased late; slow decreased; slow duration flattened; cooldown increased early.
Yuumi's damage is too high for how reliable it is, especially when coupled with other high-damage bot lane partners.
Q - Prowling Projectile
| EMPOWERED DAMAGE : | [50/95/140/185/230/275] | |
| ⇒ | 50/85/120/155/190/225 |
| SLOW : | [40/48/56/64/72/80%] | |
| ⇒ | 20/32/44/56/68/80% |
| COOLDOWN : | [11/10/9/8/7/6] | |
| ⇒ | 13.5/12/10.5/9/7.5/6 |
Patch 9.14
Passive shield decreased; mana restore removed. Q empowered damage decreased; cost increased. E missing HP scaling increased; cost decreased.
We're opening Yuumi's early game weakness to reduce her presence in pro play. These changes cut her very early lane poke dominance, while buffing her later lane scrapping.
Passive - Bop 'n' Block
| SHIELD : | [80-300] | |
| ⇒ | 50-300 |
Q - Prowling Projectile
| EMPOWERED DAMAGE : | [60/105/150/195/240/285 (+0.6 AP)] | |
| ⇒ | 50/95/140/185/230/275 (+0.65 AP) |
| COST : | [60/65/70/75/80/85] | |
| ⇒ | 75/80/85/90/95/100 |
E - Zoomies
| COST : | [60/70/80/90/100] | |
| ⇒ | 30/40/50/60/70 |
Patch 9.12
Base health increased. Passive mana refund decreased early; shield decreased. W shared adaptive force adjusted; dash now interruptible by all CC.
Good Yuumis are very frustrating to play against and have virtually no windows of vulnerability—and more players are starting to get good at Yuumi. With this in mind, we're pulling some of the mid-patch buffs we gave her at release and nerfing her defenses to open up some weaknesses. Also, bugfixes and usability improvements!

Quality of Life Changes
Patch 9.11
Q range indicator brightness adjusted. W now gives assists when she first attaches. E movement speed decay flattened. Lots of bugfixes.
Making some QoL changes and bugfixes for Yuumi. These updates should help lower the gap between good and bad Yuumi players without increasing a good Yuumi player's power.

Bugfixes
Mid-Patch
We're looking to give Yuumi a boost to her early game that will help both experienced and inexperienced Yuumi players.
