New Yi, new builds?

[quote=Pheyniex]i remember a ttt game where it was basically a backdoor ad yi and me as full armor rammus chasing him all over the map. thornmail+omen is plenty. you can add frozenheart for epicness.[/quote]

[quote=DarkPercy]New Yi will be built with heavy AD + [[youmuu's ghostblade]]. He will be played like AP Yi is played now except he won't have a heal but he will have DPS after his Q. It's really THAT simple. Regardless of which lane he goes in that's what he'll do I'm pretty sure. But I think jungle makes the most sense because a CC-less champion with weak sustain (from what I've seen) is never going to have a good time laning. Also his new jungle speed is so f**king dumb that it'd be stupid not to use it.[/quote]

[quote=BusDriver210]So Percy you think his new playstyle will match the playstyle of AP Yi? I agree with you, but would like a little more insight if you wouldn't mind. I agree that massive AD will be more beneficial than AS, but what are your thoughts on crit? Will you invest into shiv or simply rely on his ultimate + ghostblade?[/quote]

[quote=DarkPercy]Yeah crit gives him burst as well so it's amazing. The only crit items I'd get would be [[youmuu's ghostblade]], [[infinity edge]] and maybe [[statikk shiv]]. Still not sure about shiv. I can't tell you what my build will be yet but I will certainly test [[statikk shiv]] and also try more tanky oriented builds to see if it works. Sorry for vague response :3 EDIT: Maybe Shiv instead of Youmuu's... idk[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]I personally liked Shiv on him. I also did a stupid trinity force atmogs build and it worked pretty well.[/quote]

[quote=Kuukai85]otg, may i ask you how? :D[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]Hey Percy, that build is very similar to the build I used by now.^^ If you build Shiv over Youmuu's you get 5% crit and a proc, but loose 30 AD, 20 armorpen and 10% CDR. I don't think that is really worth it, especially because of the armorpen. Also, Final Yi is back? Nice to hear that. Final Yi in S3: [items=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/item-purchase-planner#&item=151-27-27-27-27-27-78-103-51-66-65-63-36-145-46-48] [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img153/7850/ytap.png[/img] I remember my old S2 Final Yi guide, the best guide I ever made. And now, after the Yi rework, he will have true dmg and [[blade of the ruined king]], which increases the power of it by a great amount. Also, do not forget: Assassin Skin = AD Assassin Yi Chosen Skin = Lifesteal Yi Ionia Yi = Final/Bruiser Yi Samurai Yi = DPS Yi Headhunter Yi = Backdoor Yi And the more and more I use the new [[meditate]], I start to like it. I now max it second after [[Alpha Strike]] and [[wuju style]] last, as % dmg and true dmg are more something for lategame.[/quote]

[quote=BusDriver210]The changes to [[Highlander]] really support Percy's argument. He doesn't have to activate it to get his resets, so when he does need AS he'll absolutely have it. Maybe [[Greater Quintessence of Life Steal]] would be a nice choice considering the need for early sustain and him already having clearing power built into his kit?[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]I still swear on my [[greater quintessence of movement speed]] and my no boots build, because 1 more real item lategame offers a huge amount of either increased damage or defense.[/quote]
