Random Yoru buff ideas

Riot said Yoru buffs are delayed indefinitely, so maybe they're back to the drawing board. I've been playing Yoru pretty much exclusively for awhile now so here are some ideas that could make him stronger.

  • If Gatecrash is on cooldown, getting kills and/or assists reduces time. Basically combining the current cooldown system with the old one.
  • All abilities incl. flashes are quickcast. Default behavior for TP and decoy is the current right-click behavior. "Use" to send in motion. Pathing is based on crosshair placement at original time of cast.
  • Audio cues when Decoy is heard/seen by enemies. Maybe voicelines like "they hear me..." when heard and "they know its a fake" when seen.
  • Enemies affected by a Yoru flash are also deafened. Would make flash-TP plays more viable.
  • After TP'ing, re-cast Gatecrash within 2-5 seconds to return to original location (consumes a decoy charge?)
  • Gatecrash itself acts as a flashbang when Yoru TPs
  • I-Frames when activating Gatecrash, similar to his ult
  • Decoy can be placed remotely within a certain range
  • Any enemies within audible range of Gatecrash appear on the minimap
  • Overhealed/Bonus HP when a decoy is active.
