Feels like this could be strong? Jett as the primary entry while Yoru can op and pressure mid with TPs. You still retain a flash which is still very useful. Honestly the direction that I feel like MIBR should go instead of the comp they used.

if any team learns how to actually use yoru with his new kit well, I will be incredibly surprised.
honestly give him the second flash and make the flashes themselves slightly weaker and I feel like he could still be a really strong duelist
yeah, but i think that the main attraction of yoru previously was the pressure he could apply around the map with tps, and with the lifetime reduction and the sound cue, it kind of just removes part of the entire reason for using him. pheonix is just better imo, flash is just as hard to dodge if used right.
What Yoru was able to do last year and into the Santiago meta was simplifying defense macro immensely. Both sites basically would be the strong side for like a minute into the round. Yoru cannot function like this anymore. Instead, you use the TPs actively. You decide something like "hey I want to push into this area" and you set it free. Either you can use it offensively like something's TPs into mid corners forcing defenders to consider the possibility or defensively where you let the TP go to friendly space and push into contested space. Phoenix I think functions as that fighter duelist you can let off the leash, Yoru is more of a pick and run agent imo and now you just have to be proactive with it instead of brainlessly letting one fly the second the last one disappears
