Qiyana
Qiyana has the ability to one shot you while you, and potentially Taric as well, are stunned. The lack of counter-play to her burst makes her ban worthy if you find her in your games a lot
Taric
When funneling ideally you want to have your duo playing Taric. This is because he and Yi synergise so well together. His stun will still go off while Yi is in Alpha Strike meaning its guaranteed that it will land, this combined with his insane healing and invulnerability ult is what him the perfect champ to 2v8 with.

What is the funnel Strategy?
The funnel strategy involves 'funneling' a bunch of gold into one player which is usually the jungler. The jungler will farm the jungle camps but will also be able to farm the creeps in mid lane. Instead of having a traditional mid laner, the mid laner will be replaced by a support champion, typically Taric or Lulu; And instead of a traditional jungler like Lee Sin or Rek'Sai you will have a hard-carry like Master Yi or Kai'Sa. Since this hard-carry champion has access to another entire income pool this allows them to scale and reach their power spikes much sooner than what is usually expected. This is what allows the funnel duo to take over games.
Pros and Cons of FunnelingBack to Top
PROS
+ Playing a super fun hard-carry champion like Master Yi and getting crazy fed early into the game!
+ Not relying on your teammates for anything. It doesn't matter if they int their lane, you can out-carry it.
+ Make cool highlight plays as you and your duo literally 2v5 late game.
+ Win every game!
CONS
- Master Yi is banned a lot in low elo.
- Your opponents will dodge more and more often the higher elo you are as they know its pointless to try and win against funnel.
