I would recommend taking Last Stand over Coup de Grace because it provides extra damage on your Alpha Strike. Infact you CAN fight people when you are low hp, you just need to dodge CC (may be harder in low ELOs)
Let me know what you think!
Thanks
Picking Runes is mostly based on enemy champion picks and your own playstyle preference.
Both LT and HOB are working well on Yi but both also have their ups and downs.
If you have trouble deciding on which one to mainly use you should play straight 10 games in a row with the same runes and look, not on how many of those games you've won but on how many of those games you've performed better then with the other runes.
I like to run LT over HOB because HOB only really helps from the early to mid game, thats also when Yi is the weakest but it kinda forces you to do something before it becomes useless while also having an annoying bug in which the runes sometimes does not work after you use Q. LT is more consistent, scales better and makes you get more out of your damage in longer skirmishes. The game is currently going into a direction where consistency again becomes really important and better on Yi, hope that helps.

1. Any tips for getting a pentakill? (It's my goal, and why I want to play Master Yi)
2. Any tips for farming? I always seem to fall very behind in terms of gold, even though I follow the paths and purely focus on farming. Also, I find it much harder to farm late-game.
3. What's the difference between the on-hit and crit builds? What are they each best used for?
There is no guaranteed way to get Pentakills but you can increase your chances by trying to engage after letting your Team play things out first or once you've got fed enough to deal enough damage, you get a better feeling on that when you know you can at least solo everyone in the enemy team. Try to use your Q when they are about to die to kill them with the next basic atk that follows. For farming you can check out my tips and tricks section since there are some strategies which can increase your clear speed. Those are a bit old but i was going to share a new tips and tricks video soon which will cover even more stuff and will be updated for current Yi. Later on you don't farm your jungle to much, you'll get your buffs max and you splitt on lanes which give more gold. Onhit is currently your way to go in 95% of games since it plays into Yi's kit so good. You get better sustain, good and consistent DPS but you're also more tanky. You can go for Crit when enemys have no tanks and not much CC which rarely is the case but even then you'll always be squishy, you have no sustain and once enemys get some armor you will deal no damage.
