AP Master Yi: Worth it?

[quote=mobrebel]New rule: Play AP in normal; Hybrid in Ranked; and AD whenever you want. XD[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Hybrid is almost as bad as AP...[/quote]

[quote=mobrebel]XP Hybrid allows the player to have both the early burst of AP and the late game dominance of AD. Better than going with lifesteal/AS with no damage...[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]It's always about playstyle. You can tell me AP shouldn't be viable in competitive play, but I actually play AP better no matter what type of game I'm playing....It doesn't matter if something is supposedly "better" damagewise if the player's not good at playing that way. If someone plays one way better than another they're going to play that way better no matter what type of game they're in.[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=mobrebel] Hybrid allows the player to have both the early burst of AP and the late game dominance of AD.[/quote] NO. Crit and ArP are 2 big sources of damage. He also relies a little on life steal. Yi needs all the damage he can get for his cleaning runs. Hybrid isn't viable.[/quote]

[quote=DEWO]"New rule: Play AP in normal; Hybrid in Ranked; and AD whenever you want. XD" No... i play alot of Normal games (mainly those) and i am sick and tired of seeing ppl accualy treating normal games like shit and by doing so destroying other ppl fun from the game by goin fucking AP tryndameres... srsly... NORMALs are as good as ranked. I agree on normals beeing used to "train" new champions but ffs treat it liek a NORMAL game. You want to test or just screw around on "fun builds" go play coop... or even custom... New rule: Play AD/AS Yi everywhere... dont invent the wheel again srsly. AP or (oh god) hybrod Yi arent viable. <- this is a dot! For me it is not more viable than AP Garen. How can you tell it is viable? you get higher K/D Ratios? You have plenty creeps? You have to ask yourself how usefull you are for the team not how many KSes can you get. Srsly a WAAAAAAAAAY better is to take AP Sion... Build him the way you build AP Yi and you will be 10 times more usefull to your team.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I still think telling people what they are good at isn't viable is silly. If someone sucks with AD Tryn do you really want them to play him that way? If you're going to say they're a noob either way wouldn't you rather they play the way they're the best at? No matter how "unviable" it [i]should[/i] be people still get decent stats with it: which should automatically define it as viable, even if it's "not as good".[/quote]

[quote=Searz]NO.[/quote]

[quote=Kirluu]I'd say it's up to the player himself, but for the sake of one's team I think you'd better go AD/AS when choosing Yi in ranked. Elsewhat you'll just get hated for not being able to tower push quite efficiently enough. Whoever said something about AS and Lifesteal without any damage ever heard of Wuju Style? :/ Srsly, it covers pretty well, unless late game, where you'll have to find another source of damage. IMO. As a final: [b]Master Yi:[/b] [i]AD > AP > Hyrbrid[/i] ^This is my opinion at least.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]I think, to get the [b]most[/b] out of Yi, his game should go like this. AP->Hybrid->AD He gets all the benefits with a ton of dominance. The only problem is, it's hrd to spec a rune page and mastery set for this. It's also difficult to do if you are under-farmed or have teammates who won't understand.[/quote]
