Disappointed to hear unlikely of a speed change to Minimorph. For Yauso who typically rely on Deny or Recall to avoid removal, is it mean to be a hard counter for him? Again as someone who likes to build around Champions, I have no solution to Minimorph which feels bad.

Typically if I'm having problems with removal or Champion death my go to answer is to shift to a region that has Deny, Recall, Hourglass or Rite of Negation. Minimorph's 6 cost is mid-game range and I have no ability to mitigate it's influence in a game. I find that frustrating.

Minimorph's design restricts it to being burst as silences can only be burst due to stack issues, like freezes. Also, minimorph right now is keeping Lee Sin on check. Too much interaction can also be as problematic as burst speed removal. I'd even say mini is healthy for the game

Then IMO Lee Sin should be changed so Yauso and whole other regions who's identity come with means to counter removal aren't nullified.

So to be clear it's not purely a Lee Sin problem. Minimorph is good against decks that bring a single big threat (3x specifically), and that's what it was designed to be good against. It's the tradeoff you make when your deck has a single point of failure (which isn't always bad)

The number of times I’ve lost a game last second with my GP being cucked is very annoying. The deck isnt even central around making sure GP is out. Makes me want to drop the game.

It would have been the same had they used any other hard removal spell though, right? That deck doesn't have an answer to Vengance, Thermobeam or any other hard removal, does it?

Incorrect. All the other hard removal spells allow for interaction. A Deny, Hourglass, Recall, etc, as means to stop it (Which forces the 'remover' to bait out protection and or wait for mana use). Also, all the other means of removal, SI has means of reviving -- not with Mini.
