I generally prefer AD marks for the lane and AS marks for jungling. But since I prefer AS marks on pretty much any jungler, that doesn't have to say much. The thing you have to calculate out here is if the increased damage on Alpha Strike and attacks autscale that you get 1-2 more attacks, especially if you calculate Madred's Razors and the bonus true dmg of Wuju Style.

What if you stacked 4 IE's on Yi for 100% crit and 280 AD, so your Q hits for like 160% + base damage of your total AD?

Can't see why ppl even bother...

New Yi is no different from any other squishy melee AD.
You build pure dmg and the main part is to adjust your playstyle in order not to get foc'd and downed.


Only difference compared to old Yi:
AD is definitely a first on him while Crit and AS both belong in the second place.


Only thing I'd wonder about is, if a Guinsoo's would fit in only to push new Mediate.
(After giving it a thought... Nah.
Heal wouldn't be that amazing. If you'd rly need a Guinsoo's, it would be thx to the other stats)

I did thise once on bankplank back in the days of denying. Since then, no champ got enough gold for that by now. Could be your final build in a 2h game.

Please keep stacking AD with Yi and no defensive items. It's so fun 1 shotting you guys with Annie.

My findings after a couple of games:

Youmuu's Ghostblade is ridiculously effective.
Ravenous Hydra makes splitpushing seriously fast. Get them together and people think it's Udyr getting that tower in 2 seconds.
Infinity Edge makes people cry.
Blade of the Ruined King as a rush item is very very good.
I BUILT ARMOR. I finished with a game with Randuin's Omen LMAO. Made killing the ADC a bit easier with more armor and decent LS. Not recommending, no need to scold.

All in all, I'm considering Youmuu's Ghostblade core, regardless of lane/jungle. MS can be used to escape/engage, AS makes your crits pop up non-stop and the cooldown is fairly low.

And the active on E is seriously underrated by some folks. Especially when you don't have high AD yet, helps a ton.
