Derke from Fnatic has played 32 consecutive games on Yoru - a new meta?

Nikita "Derke" Sirmitev, a member of the Fnatic team from the EMEA region, has been actively discussed on the Reddit forum for his frequent selection of the agent Yoru in competitive matches for 32 consecutive times.

According to data from a tracker website, from January 21 to the present day, February 7, Derke has chosen Yoru 32 times in ranked matches. His win rate using the agent was 75%, which includes 24 victories and 8 losses.

Reddit users are actively discussing this phenomenon, expressing opinions like "If Fnatic picks Yoru, then it could become a new meta" and "Yoru is really strong against Cypher". Even Derke himself joined the discussion, noting: "The point isn't whether to play Yoru, but where to play him".
