This is the first guide I saw on yi that helped me out some time ago after a year's pause on lol. I was looking for a quick build to use, I haven't read any of the chapters though(sorry xd). It really helped me out at the time!! Nice work.

Do you think it's important to rush after ? In one game there was a particularly dangerous in the enemy team so I decided to build some armor like first before Rageblade. It didn't work but I'm not sure if it was entirely my fault or his skill had something to do with it, which is why I'm asking your opinion.

Alright so let's talk about Any hp you build is negated by her so what item do we use to counter her? Currently the only way through items is and . Secondly, you can build whatever you feel is needed, generally, Vayne is very difficult to deal with in terms of out playing her as the only way to do so is to dodge her E. Generally, if you fail to do so and aren't very ahead, you'll probably die. Crit Yi deals with vayne the best in my eyes unless guinsoo's is already stacked.

Basically, you can go rageblade second but the way I see it is, why build defensivly if i'm going to die anyway? I may as well at least go 1 for 1 rather than 1 for 0.

I recall some people stating that crit Yi is better against a team full of squishes and perhaps one tank, while a regular on hit Yi build is better against tankier teams. What's your opinion on this? (if you clarified that somewhere in the guide and I missed it, deepest apologies)

If you build lord dominicks, and Blade Of The Ruined King, you'll find you'll kill both tanks and squishies very quickly unless it's a rammus or so. On hit is better to play in jungle because it's easier to snowball, and maintain that snowball, as well as easier to come back from when behind. Crit is better when played in lane.

Did you try this for maximum earlygame impact? According to Lolalytics, this also has the highest Winrate in Diamond

Summoners:
Smite+Ignite

Runes:
Predator, Sudden Impact, Eyeball Collection, Relentless Hunter, Celerity, Scorch

Items:
Boots of Mobility rush, Stalker's Blade - Warrior, Infinity Edge, Phantom Dancer, Statikk Shiv, Guardian Angle, replace Warrior with Essence Reaver, replace Boots with Ravenous Hydra

I found it very interesting and Yi gains like 20 AD from Celerity at max. Plus Predator procs on your initial Q, means you have a high burst.

I'll give it a whirl in some games I guess, but imo warrior isn't that good and the eye ball collection even if it's fully stacked only grants 18 AD which is pretty much nothing since it's more of a late game rune that doesn't offer much late game.

I'd say a better path is going your blue smite, and going up front critical strike with an infinity edge > pd > shiv, your aim is to snowball, not delay your spikes.

Celerity is pretty strong yeah, but wouldn't ghost be better than ignite? Ignite, sure gives you damage, but having a summoner spell to escape would be better imo. Also ghost gives like 5 AD or so thanks to Celerity.

Well, Warrior gives you the earlier powerspike since you get the AD that B.F. Sword + Pickaxe gives you 600 gold earlier. Plus you will kinda feel a little lack of AD with just IE combined then with 2 no AD items. The transition feels smoother since you actually have something in your hand before you have to build the super expensive IE. Warrior is also way easier to combine than IE.

Well, 18 AD is more damage late than 0 AD, I guess? Ehm, it is actually 20 AD, thanks to Wuju Style.^^

I feel like Ghost doesn't have a huge effect at that point anymore, Ignite would deal more damage and actually adds the healing reduction effect. I should probably also run skirmisher's sabre instead, since it matches up well with Ignite and always outdamages Stalker's Blade while giving also a defense boost.

Warrior doesn't really work well since it's just raw AD, If you invest 1k more, you get an i.e. and can transition straight into a PD, i.e. with 20% will mean if you crit once, that will be half of the opponents bar gone, Pd will provide the AS + Damage reduction earlier.

Also zomnbie ward is better due to map control

Hi, there are some sentences in the guide which I don't understand:

using Meditate to tank abilities
I highly advise unless you're really good with this champion not to pick him at all if you lack cc
you'll be able to our rotate the enemy team
focus the back line
flank them from a side you know isn't warded via the use of Oracle Alteration

Can you explain their meaning?

Thanks.

Use meditate to tank abilities such as a Syndra ultimate as meditate reduces damage taken by 50-70% depending on rank in the ability

I highly advise unless you're really good with this champion not to pick him at all if you lack cc - If you lack cc, it means Yi will be a lot easier to lock down, and harder to kill carries, thus unless you know how to play him perfectly, you shouldn't take Yi.

Focus the back line - Exactly as it sounds, focus their squishy carries such as adc, ap mage etc.

you'll be able to our rotate the enemy team - typo supposed to be OUT rotate the enemy team

flank them from a side you know isn't warded via the use of Oracle Alteration -
This means you catch them from surprise in the fog of war, so let's say enemies are pushing mid, you come in behind and try to kill their back line aka their squishy champions like their adc etc. as their front liners aka tanks will be pushed forward.

Thank you for the clarifications. I still have a couple of questions: Your advice seems contradictory: How can you know how to play Yi perfectly if you don't take him? Also, what's the meaning of "out rotate"?

I would like to add a suggestion. You seem to have a good command of the English language, and it's obvious that you've dedicated a lot of effort to this guide. It's a shame you use sentences like "Focus the back line" because only veteran players can understand that, and even they might find it difficult to understand due to the grammar mistakes. If you say instead "focus on the squishy champions, who tend to stay in the back line", that can be understood by everybody, including beginners like myself.

Okay, so you're saying the terminology that I'm using might mean that a person who is new to Mobas may not understand? If that's the case, I'll re-write some of the sentences to make it easier to understand for some players.

"How can you know how to play Yi perfectly if you don't take him?" You forgot the rest of the sentence which ties in with the quote "If you lack cc" Meaning, you'll have to judge whether taking a champion who might suit better with the team such as having cc will help you win more than your skill on Yi, if you're a first time Yi player, of course you won't know unless you try, thus practicing in normal games is key. You might be a good Yi player, but at the end of the day, if your team lacks cc, it's a lot harder to win with the champion.

Rotation is exactly how it sounds, you move to a different part of the map for example, if you take a tier 2 tower in mid lane, normally enemies are "rotating" from where they currently are to defend the inhibitor tower, however if you ping your team to go bot, and take the tier 2 tower, you just out rotated the enemy because they thought your team would push the mid lane, but instead you just took a tier 2 bot tower for free, it doesn't have to just be with towers, it can even be with farm and pushing a lane.

Thank you for all the clarifications! I think you have clarified all my doubts :)

It would be great if you rewrite a bit to make things easier to understand. New players like would definitely appreciate it!
