I'm building on the premise that actives and passives are more important than stats, because of the fact that stats, on a broader scale, all have a similar effect. For example, you could block and deal less damage, ie have a longer fight, with armor or you could end it quicker with attack damage. So should I make a build guide about this hybrid set? (Remember, in other MMO games you have to have a mix of both.) Spirit of the Elder Lizard, Boots of Mobility Alacrity, Spirit Visage, Zephyr, Frozen Mallet, and Deathcap. I know the Deathcap isn't the best, but it's so effective. Thanks

That would work if LoL was an MMO.

LoL isn't an MMO.

True, lol. This is my Master Yi build. I usually average very low kdr / minions / assists (not that assists matter as much) with other champs / builds, but recently I've been able to get 15 / 3 + with trolls or just a few more kills than deaths even if my team loses. I know the people who make these guides are geniuses at their craft, simply because a genius would have to play a lot of lol before he could make a guide. I just want to know the weaknesses of my build and how the current accepted build is better. Also, before an adjustment in Season 2 or 3 didn't more people use Zephyr with this champion?

Pretty much every item you just mentioned is bad on Yi except maybe Frozen Mallet. Even then, I wouldn't bother building it.

Can't tell if trolling or serious

1- That build

2- I don't even think Zephyr was in S2

3- Assists dint matter much

4- The people that make guides are geniuses at their craft

5- I have no Idea what your first post even means

As far as I know, you can by now build Yi 2 ways:

1. DPS focus
2. Burst focus

The DPS focus starts with Blade of the Ruined King, then goes Mercury's Treads, Statikk Shiv, Infinity Edge and 2 hybrid offense/defense items, like Frozen Mallet, Mercurial Scimitar, Atma's Impaler, etc...

The Burst focus build is played similar to AP Yi, you want an infinite Alpha Strike loop. For this, you go maximum damage rather than defense items. These items are Tiamat, Mobility Boots, Youmuu's Ghostblade, Ravenous Hydra, Infinity Edge, Cloak of Agility, Last Whisper and another Infinity Edge cuz it gives the maximum damage for Alpha Strike. The Tiamat active gives you a good bonus on burst.
